B Vitamins As Effective Helpers to Chiropractic Care of Radiculopathy
Vitamins for back pain? Vitamins for leg pain? Yes!
VITAMIN B FOR YOUNGER WOMEN
Younger La Grande women develop new bodies in their own bodies while pregnant. It’s a big responsibility to create the body for a new person! Taking 400 mcg of folic acid daily reduces 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 favorable development as feasible and to look after the body you have when young to maintain it as it ages.
VITAMIN B FOR OLDER WOMEN’S SPINES
Older La Grande women feel some distinctive La Grande spinal and body issues. After menopause plasma homocysteine rises and elevates the risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis for women. Folic acid (vitamin B9) drops the homocysteine levels (as well as the associated risks for disease). (2) Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is all about 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 influence bone health likely because of their influence on total plasma homocysteine concentrations (TCHY). B12 and THCY may modify osteoclasts or osteoblasts or modulate collagen cross-linking in bone health. Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) assists the body in maintaining normal nerve function. (4) Bone health and nerve function are surely important contributors to spine health and La Grande back pain incidence. Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC witnesses it daily!
VITAMIN B FOR La Grande BACK PAIN RELIEF
Taking B vitamins can decrease the risk of adverse effects of consuming NSAIDS to which many La Grande back pain sufferers turn to for some pain relief. (5) Adding a multivitamin to the treatment plan for pain relief for patients with L5S1 vertebrogenic radiculopathy (sciatica) helpfully impacts the pain relief outcomes. (6) Cases of vitamin B12 deficiency may come into the office with acute neurological symptoms but improve with vitamin B2 supplementation. (7) In patients who have sciatic leg pain for more than one month, including vitamin B complex supplementation to the use of diclofenac (NSAID) increased pain relief outcomes. (8) Dr. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC certainly enthusiastically shares such positive approaches for superior patient outcomes!
