Health By CHOICE, Not By CHANCE

Enjoy an article that I was interviewed on about Health by CHOICE, not by CHANCE that was posted in, "The Atlas of Life," by Dr. Brandon Harshe.

Dr. Brandon Harshe: We supposedly have the best health care in the world, but consistently rank near the bottom of the list of industrialized nations in sickness and disease. How do you think we can change this?

Dr. Victor Manzo, Jr.: “I believe to change this is to change the mindsets of the population.  It all starts with the individual.  I believe if we inform them and speak the truth, eventually it will prevail and they will get the big picture.

As I speak to the community, I always have people who come up to me and are amazed by the information received and the cliché is, “Why hasn’t my doctor told me about this or explained this to me?”

We have people in this country who believe eating potato chips and French fries is a good serving of vegetables.  The average American consumes 150 lbs of sugar per year.  Sugar is naturally toxic to the brain and nervous system, let alone creates havoc on our organs.

I believe the only way we can shift this is through constant information.  We need to continually speak the truth on health.  It has been said it takes a person seven times of hearing something before they change their mindset.

If chiropractors and other health professionals worked together and spoke the same message on the chiropractic lifestyle, we can slowly shift these mindsets.

I always tell people, have health by choice and not by chance because living the medical model, you are having health by CHANCE but choosing a proactive lifestyle and getting regular chiropractic adjustments is someone who is having health by CHOICE!”
