On September 18, 1895, the first spinal manipulation or adjustment was performed by the founder of chiropractic, Dr. Daniel David Palmer. Harvey Lillard comes to Dr. Palmer because it had been seventeen years since he could hear. Dr. Palmer did and exam and found a bone out of place in Harvey’s spine, and just like that the first chiropractic adjustment was made. Then Harvey could hear (“Int. Chiro. Assc”). There is more to chiropractic then just getting out of neck or back pain. Most people do…

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an idiopathic autoimmune disorder that affects the nervous system. MS results from progressive demyelination of the white matter of the brain and spinal chord. Multiple sclerosis affects the nervous system by damaging the nerve cell’s myelin, a process known as demyelination. Multiple sclerosis causes scattered demyelinated lesions causing neurologic dysfunction. The myelin is a lipoprotein complex formed of glial cells. The primary functions of the axonal myelin are…

The component of idea maintenance from the memory construct was addressed. When individuals read a sentence,…

Thalidomide-based disabilities today in these rural countries, and because of this, no scientist can calculate how many children have been born with disabilities (Thalidomide”). Thalidomide has also been approved in America to help treat leprosy and multiple myeloma (“Thalidomide”). Although a foundation was created to compensate the families, monetary gain cannot diminish the atrocities that affected so many…

People who oppose too this treatment should have empathy for those families and patients with these conditions. Advocates argue that marijuana can be a safe and effective treatment for patients who have cancer and other conditions like AIDs and Multiple Sclerosis.

Although, marijuana might have some contradictions, it saves lives, and has other benefits like increasing the U.S. economy…
