B Vitamins As Effective Helpers to Chiropractic Care of Radiculopathy

May 01, 2018

Vitamins for back pain? Vitamins for leg pain? Yes!

Vancouver Disc Centers presents new studies about just how important nutrition is to the health of our Vancouver chiropractic patients and their bodies, particularly their backs. Vancouver Disc Centers keeps up on how specific nutritional changes beneficially influence specific conditions related to spinal health. Here, vitamin B is presented for all its advantages for Vancouver chiropractic back pain sufferers.

VITAMIN B FOR YOUNGER WOMEN

Younger Vancouver women develop new bodies in their own bodies when pregnant. It’s a big duty to form the body for a new person! Consuming12 400 mcg of folic acid a day decreases the risk of neural tube defects (like spine-related spina bifida and anencephaly) in the first 28 days of pregnancy by 50% to 70%. (1) It is advantageous to start life with as much beneficial development as possible and to attend to the body you have when young to support it as it ages.

VITAMIN B FOR OLDER WOMEN’S SPINES

Older Vancouver women experience some distinctive Vancouver spinal and body conditions. After menopause plasma homocysteine rises and raises the risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis for women. Folic acid (vitamin B9) reduces the homocysteine levels (as well as the associated risks for disease). (2) Vancouver Disc Centers is concerned with heart and bone health, too! Low levels of B vitamins are related to a higher risk of degenerative diseases like osteoporosis. (3) Research reports that B vitamins affect bone health likely due to their influence on total plasma homocysteine concentrations (TCHY). B12 and THCY may change osteoclasts or osteoblasts or adjust collagen cross-linking in bone health. Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) helps the body maintain normal nerve function. (4) Bone health and nerve function are surely integral to spine health and Vancouver back pain incidence. Vancouver Disc Centers witnesses it every day!

VITAMIN B FOR Vancouver BACK PAIN RELIEF

Taking B vitamins can decrease the risk of unpleasant effects of consuming NSAIDS to which many Vancouver back pain sufferers turn to for some pain relief. (5) Including a multivitamin to the treatment plan for pain relief for patients with L5S1 vertebrogenic radiculopathy (sciatica) helpfully impacts the pain relief outcomes. (6) Patients with vitamin B12 deficiency may come into the office with acute neurological symptoms but progress with vitamin B2 supplementation. (7) In patients with sciatic leg pain for longer than one month, including vitamin B complex supplementation to the use of diclofenac (NSAID) improved pain relief outcomes. (8) Vancouver Disc Centers certainly happily shares such positive approaches for better patient outcomes!
