Antacids, Laxatives, and Pain Relievers 

The title of this article suggests problems with digestion, elimination, and assimilation. The product names of many over-the-counter remedies in this category are instantly recognized and the combined sales of these and similar products total billions of dollars each year.

For many people these products are a way of life. They represent on-the-spot relief for problems that are covered up year after year until surgery finally removes the offending organ. Before starting down this slippery slope you must realize that the aforementioned drugstore remedies do not actually correct problems and restore normal function.

Such products are examples of the "magic bullet" theory of "sick care" which places emphasis on attempts to mask symptoms. There is no attempt to remove the cause of the symptoms and restore normal body function, as is done in healthcare. While prompt pain relief is important and necessary, it should not be a way of life.

People with such problems as indigestion, constipation, and diarrhea rarely go to a doctor before serious complications begin because it is uncommon to seek help for mild symptoms and non-life-threatening problems. In the absence of positive test results, over-the-counter remedies are used until they are replaced by more expensive prescription drugs.

Fortunately, there is a better way. Every symptom has a general physiological cause, and lifestyle changes and nutritional support for the stressed organs can correct these problems. A prudent course of action is to remove the stress by changing a few simple dietary habits and including the use of food enzyme supplements to restore normal function.

It all started when I was driving and a truck ran a stop sign hitting the drivers side door of my car. I had several broken ribs, a bruised lung, broken clavicle and extensive bruising. I guess it could have been much worse. What I didn’t expect was the pain would go on long after the bruises and bones healed. 

Prescription medication helped during the healing process with pain. But once I went back to work they were way to strong. I thought the neck pain and headaches would eventually go away. But in fact, it got worse with time.

Trying to seek relief, I saw doctor after doctor. I received test after test. That lasted for 4 years! I had, x-rays, EMGs, MRIs. The doctors admitted there was something wrong, but said it shouldn’t be causing all the neck pain, headaches, or inability to turn my head to the left. In the end I was told it was something I’d just have to live with. I thought NO WAY!

Almost 5 ½ years after the accident, I got a flyer from a crusader, disguised as a chiropractor telling me about chiropractic care. I set up an appointment, received a thorough evaluation and he told me he could help. Finally! Someone who knew what to do!

I felt immediate relief after the first treatment! I slept through the night for the first time in years. My headaches were gone by the second treatment. I can now turn my head without any pain. All thanks to Dr. Swolensky.

I came to see Dr. Swolensky after witnessing the amazing results my aunt had in his office. I had no control of my life. I was a ‘tripping zombie’. 
I suffered from severe migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and spent most of the day in bed. Life was really non-existent for me.
 

In just 7 weeks I have gone from 31 different pills to 4. I have 90% less pain. I also lost 20lbs in those 7 weeks.

I am a totally and completely different person. It’s like a night and day difference.
