What is Nutrition?
Nutrition is the process of supplying and acquiring macro and micronutrients for growth and repair of the body. At Jones Chiropractic, we understand our Creator has provided us with the food necessary to prosper and thrive on Earth. We also understand our bodies have the capability to rebuild and restore itself when given the correct nutritional building blocks. Using specific, high quality supplements allows us to provide the body the support it needs to improve nutrient deficiencies, reduce nutritional degeneration, and optimize nutritional health to improve the quality of life.

NUTRITION FAQs
How can I order bloodwork to better understand my nutritional status?
Just ask! We can recommend supplements and dietary changes without bloodwork, but we suggest people to get labs done to better understand where their deficiencies lie. You can call the office at 419-331-2040 or submit your information in the contact box below.
How does stress and negative thoughts cause digestive problems?
When we are stressed or have negative thoughts, our body goes into sympathetic mode (sometimes referred to as "fight or flight" mode). During sympathetic mode, our blood and energy is directed to our brain and extermities to fight a threat or flee a situation. Digestion can only occur when our body is in parasympathetic mode (sometimes referred to as "rest or digest" mode). During parasympathetic mode, our blood and energy is directed to our digestive and immune systems to repair and replenish our body.
How can a spinal misalignment affect my nutrition?
Each nerve that comes out of your spine goes to your skin, muscles, joints, and organs. If the nerve is not working properly due to a misaligned joint in your spine, this could cause poor communication to an organ, such as your gut.
