Vitamins for back pain? Vitamins for leg pain? Yes!
Johnson Chiropractic discusses how important
nutrition is to the health of our Richmond chiropractic patients and
their bodies, particularly their backs. Johnson Chiropractic keeps
abreast of how specific nutritional changes positively impact
specific conditions related to spinal health. Here, vitamin B is shared
for all its advantages for Richmond chiropractic
back
pain sufferers.
VITAMIN B FOR YOUNGER WOMEN
Younger Richmond women develop new
bodies in their own bodies while pregnant. It’s a big duty to create the body
for a new person! Taking 400 mcg of folic acid daily reduces
the risk of neural tube defects (like spine-related spina
bifida and anencephaly) in the first 28 days of pregnancy by 50% to 70%. (1) It’s advantageous to
start life with as much favorable development as possible
and to take care of the body you have when young to support
it as it ages.
VITAMIN B FOR OLDER WOMEN’S SPINES
Older Richmond women feel some unique Richmond
spinal and body issues. After menopause plasma homocysteine increases
and elevates the risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis
for women. Folic acid (vitamin B9) decreases the
homocysteine levels (and the associated risks for disease). (2)
Johnson Chiropractic is all about heart and bone health, too! Low
levels of B vitamins are related to a greater
risk of degenerative diseases like osteoporosis. (3) Research reports
that B vitamins affect bone health likely because of their influence on total plasma homocysteine
concentrations (TCHY). B12 and THCY may alter osteoclasts
or osteoblasts or modulate collagen cross-linking in bone health.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) helps the body maintain normal nerve function. (4) Bone health and nerve function are certainly
integral to spine health and Richmond back
pain incidence. Johnson Chiropractic sees
it daily!
VITAMIN B FOR Richmond BACK PAIN RELIEF
Taking B vitamins can reduce the risk of unpleasant
effects of taking NSAIDS to which many Richmond back
pain sufferers turn to for some pain relief. (5) Adding
a multivitamin to the treatment plan for pain relief for patients who have L5S1 vertebrogenic radiculopathy (sciatic leg
pain) helpfully impacts the pain
relief outcomes. (6) Cases of vitamin B12 deficiency may present
with acute
neurological symptoms but improve with vitamin B2
supplementation. (7) In patients who have sciatic leg pain for longer
than one month, including vitamin B complex supplementation to the
use of diclofenac (NSAID) enhanced pain
relief outcomes. (8) Johnson Chiropractic
certainly happily shares such
positive approaches for better
patient outcomes!
