Tonawanda Chiropractic Discussion of Vitamin B for Brain

February 14, 2017

Vitamin B promotes healthy blood, brain and body, the big 3 B’s for all of us [[targeltocation]] humans!

Not so long ago, vitamins weren’t always accepted as mainstream. Vitamins are really necessary dietary components for healthy life. (1) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands vitamins’ importance to the health of our Tonawanda chiropractic patients and their deficiency’s contribution to our Tonawanda chiropractic patients’ back pain and neck pain conditions. At Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation, a full host of Tonawanda chiropractic care options are available to determine the source of your current concern and return to you to your desired quality of life.

Vitamins are important for health as it is now known that a deficiency of them may affect not just bodily issues but also psychiatric disorders. A vitamin B deficiency may influence memory, dementia and cognitive function. Deficiencies of B1, B3, B6, B9 and B12 – all vital for neuronal function – are related to depression. The multifaceted nature of depression is interconnected with vitamin B. (1) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation carefully listens to our patients for any sign of depression.

Another subset of patient to check B levels in are Tonawanda diabetic patients. Patients with diabetes many times take metformin. This drug may reduce serum cyanocobalamin (B12) levels. Patient age, dosage, years of taking it, and time of the diabetes diagnosis likely play a role in the vitamin B12 level, as well. (2) Your Tonawanda chiropractor understands diabetes well.

Vitamins play a preventive role of cancer, particularly in the early stages of the cancer development. Folate (B9), vitamins B2, B6, and B12 are rather important. Specifically, a folate (B9) deficiency affects dendritic cell function which influences T helper cell differentiation. (T helper cells trigger the immune responses in the body.) (3) B vitamins’ metabolism is significant, providing compounds for DNA synthesis and repair processes. Researchers are excited about the potential vitamins like B present to hinder the onset of serious illnesses. (4)

Vitamin B12 itself is also quite important. It’s essential for cellular function. It’s a necessary micronutrient as we can’t produce it. 15% of us Tonawanda folks who are older than 65 don’t have enough vitamin B12. B12 deficiency results in blood and neurological issues. We may be at risk for coronary artery disease if our B12 levels are low.|Low B12 levels may also put us at risk for coronary artery disease. We can only get vitamin B12 by eating proteins from animals. Eaten vitamin B12 undergoes an intricate process of absorption and assimilation. (5) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation encourages our Tonawanda chiropractic patients to check their B12 levels. If they are low, let’s together, Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation and you, make a plan to improve them.

Why? A low level of B12 causes a variety of neurological issues. Some are acute, subacute or chronic. Such neurological complications stemming from a vitamin B12 deficiency are subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord, a useless hand syndrome (related to the cervical spinal cord), and acute posterolateral cord syndrome which results in gait ataxia. Not one of these issues is a welcome condition. The good news is that the researchers who found these issues were able to help the patients with vitamin B12 supplementation. (6) Trust Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation to guide you to the necessary care for any B12 deficiency discovered.
