No. The body has to have insulin. As a T1D you have lost the ability to make insulin therefore you have to supply it. There is no other choice. Before they had insulin to inject T1D was fatal, so it is very fortunate that insulin is available.

Yes, in our office we have helped a lot of people in their 70s and 80s with intermittent fasting. Please check please check with your doctor though.

For some people it is. Everyone is different. Please check with your doctor.

We are different from most Nutritionists because we don't follow USDA dietary recommendations because those foods don't align with your genetic blueprint (DNA). We provide you with general food recommendations suitable for you at this exact moment, as well as specific foods sensitivities to avoid. Nutritionists give general diets that can work for young, fit, and healthy people, but everyone is different so we customize to you.

We are different from most Chiropractors because we focus on holistic and neurologically based chiropractic. We don't primarily focus on a bone out of place. Bone misalignments are effects, not the root cause. We use gentle adjustments, mostly by instrument, and we don't adjust every patient the same way because you are as unique as your fingerprint. Being holistic, we also look at nutritional and emotional factors.

We different from most Naturopathic doctors because we only use whole food supplements. We also test in real time to find the best supplement for you at that exact moment. By the time you get lab results your body has changed. Most vitamins and supplements on the market are synthetic (nutraceuticals are synthetic). They will work for a very short term and then start causing imbalances.

We are different from most Medical Doctors because we don't prescribe medicine. Medical doctors, also known as allopathic doctors, treat symptoms and diseases with medicine or surgery. We look for ways to prevent and resolve symptoms and diseases by addressing the root cause by natural holistic means.

We are different from most Neurologist because they identify hard lesions which are complete neurological failures or advanced degeneration. We recognize that most problems start at very subtle levels and can be slowed, stopped or even reversed by restoring function.

Insurance only pays for symptom treatment, but not for the things that actually get you healthy. Most of our services are not covered by insurance because we are all about prevention, addressing root causes and restoring optimal health and function. If you were in a car accident, we accept medical payments through your car insurance (Med Pay).

We only take x-rays when suspecting fracture or pathology. Being holistic we do not want to expose you to unneeded radiation. X-rays also do not show chiropractors where to adjust. The bones in your body don't move without the muscles pulling on them, which is controlled by the brain. We use brain feedback to guide our chiropractic adjustments and monitor progress.

Yes. Because give everyone such personalized attention and our treatment is nothing like the assembly line you will find in some clinics, we do need you to you make appointments for your clinical nutrition and your chiropractic visits. Please call as we will do our best to accommodate you based on availability.

Yes. A real doctor is someone who is: 1) licensed as a doctor by the State of Georgia 2) restores function to improve health and 3) someone who teaches people what they need to know to get healthy. All of our chiropractors are real doctors.

No. We want people to be unconditionally pleased with our services. If you are accepted for care you can start or stop anytime you like. Because we hope you understand that health not about reducing symptoms, but rather a process of healing and regeneration, we encourage you to commit to your health and we offer discounts for pre-paid packages.

When you are pregnant it is more important than ever that you give your body the best possible support both for your sake and the child's. At Wellness For Life you can rest assured that we will customize your nutrition program to include only the safest, natural whole food concentrate supplements to support without jeopardizing your baby's health. We use very gentle chiropractic adjustments which can be performed in any position you are comfortable; sitting, standing or on your back.

New patient visits at Wellness For Life for Clinical Nutrition or Chiropractic typically last 60-90 minutes. This includes completing initial paperwork, a consultation, exam, and treatment.

At Wellness For Life, because we are very focused and have proven protocols that can identify and address your root cause in just a few minutes, we aim to get you back to living your life at its fullest in about 15 minutes or less.

Our clinic is an open adjustment room with wall dividers, so we do not have private rooms for our clinical nutrition or chiropractic adjustment visits. Further privacy in order to discuss issues of a personal nature will always be accommodated in a separate office. You can wear any clothes you like and we will not make you change, so plan accordingly.

Absolutely. We work with babies at any age and we work with their mommies before they are born. For our Clinical Nutrition Program, we do require the parent to be on the program as well, since the life style changes necessary for long term results require the whole family to embrace a healthy life style.

Our Chiropractors and our Nutrition Response Testing Practitioners are all trained to the same high standards to assure you a seamless experience. If you need to alternate practitioners to accommodate your schedule, you will still get the same experience. If you have a preference for a particular practitioner, you may request that one.

Your brain controls everything in your body! Cutting edge science proves via EEG brain scans that the adjustment stimulates & affects the brain & nervous system. We focus on helping the brain & body be the healthiest it can be by optimizing your neurological function (brain & body communication).

It’s important for you to know that pain is the last sign that you are not in top health. Your body also has a natural way of altering your mechanics to avoid pain when an impairment in function is present, which is smart in the short term, but over time it leads to dysfunction (subluxation) & disease. Regular assessments of your brain & nervous system function by a chiropractor can help detect, maintain & prevent dysfunction throughout your body.

No. We have seen patients 1 day old and over 85 years old. Chiropractic is a drugless & preventive approach to good health makes it perfect for all ages.

We have helped patients with a multitude of conditions including sciatica, weight loss, TMJ, blood sugar levels, stress, headaches, sleep issues, diabetes, cholesterol, autoimmune diseases, digestive issues, neck & back pain, numbness, pregnancy pains, fracture pain, auto accidents, vertigo, migraines & more.

No. Since a chiropractic adjustment is a specific force, applied in a specific direction to a specific area, it is virtually impossible to adjust oneself correctly & accurately. Usually when you bend & twist you are popping the joints around the one that needs adjusting.

Many patients will notice some instant relief following their first adjustment; others will take longer to respond. Various factors will affect initial symptomatic relief, including length & severity of the present concern, along with other comorbid conditions & compliance to recommendations.

Our adjustments are extremely gentle and do not cause pain, as your chiropractor is specifically trained to deliver gentle and effective care. Minor soreness is possible but rare & usually short lived.

Chiropractic is a non-invasive, drug-free discipline, therefore the risk associated with it are very low. We mostly use a very gentle adjustment that even newborns enjoy, so there is no chance in adverse events happening. Chiropractic has the lowest malpractice rates. Insurance companies are so confident that chiropractic is safe the malpractice rate for chiropractors is around $2,000/year where some medical specialties are paying $250,000/yr & more in premiums.

Your body sends messages to the brain from millions of receptors all over your body & the brain sends information back via electrical signals on how to react. Chiropractors lucked out because most receptors are on your back and neck. At our office we adjust from head to toe because your brain needs information about the whole body, & sometimes the place that hurts is not where the body / brain has communication issues (subluxation).

No. They will not break a fast, but neither of those is something that belongs in a living organism such as a human body. Watch this for the full picture. https://youtu.be/5BXOkgwQTjk

We refer to fluffy LDL cholesterol, meaning that the particles are large and low density, which indicates healthy LDL particles.

The golden rule of fasting is to not eat if you are not hungry.
