Protein intake is necessary for the growth, development, and maintenance of skeletal muscle tissue.\n\nSkeletal muscle helps us to be physically strong. And building muscle over the years also helps to safeguard against the muscle mass decline that results with age. Both physical activity and dietary factors, such as protein intake, influence growth of muscle mass.  And many protein recommendations, like the RDA, are only set to cover basic needs. But higher protein intake might be necessary for optimizing muscle mass.(1)\n<h3>Eat A Variety of High Quality Protein Foods</h3>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n\nConsuming a variety of high quality protein foods to ensure a sufficient supply of amino acids for lean mass and an overall healthy diet quality (2). And many have chosen to get their protein from plant-based sources. \"Indeed, there has been a shift toward plant-based dietary patterns within dietary guidelines to presumably maximize population health benefits and to support environmental sustainability \"(3). Studies have shown that minimizing red meat consumption is favorable to reduce disease the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other conditions. (4,5).\n<h3>Plant-Based Diets</h3>\nAre plant based diets healthier? Interestingly, when compared with regular meat-eaters, those who eat lower quantities of meat, and non-meat-eaters were younger, had a higher education level, a lower socio-economic status, were less likely to smoke and consume alcohol, had higher levels of physical activity, a a lower BMI (6).\n<h4>Protein for Breakfast</h4>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\nBy eating a breakfast high in protein, not only increases satiety and reduces hunger throughout the day, but it reduces the brain signals controlling food motivation and reward-driven eating behavior.\n<h4><em>What Do Researchers Say About Eating Breakfast?</em></h4>\nHeather J. Leidy, from University of Missouri (Missouri, USA), and colleagues assessed physiological hunger and satiety by measuring perceived appetite sensations and hormonal markers in combination with psychological reward-driven motivation to eat, using functional MRI imaging (fMRI) to identify brain activation in specific regions related to food motivation and reward.(7)\n<h4>Breakfast Skipping Is Linked to Unhealthy Snacking and Weight Gain</h4>\nThe researchers focused on teenagers, who often skip breakfast. Interestingly, breakfast skipping has been strongly associated with unhealthy snacking, overeating (especially at night), weight gain and obesity. For three weeks, the teens either continued to skip breakfast or consumed 500-calorie breakfast meals containing cereal and milk (which contained normal quantities of protein) or higher protein meals prepared as Belgium waffles, syrup and yogurt. At the end of each week, the volunteers completed appetite and satiety questionnaires. Right before lunch, the volunteers completed a brain scan, using fMRI, to identify brain activation responses.\n<h4>Eating Breakfast Reduces Hunger Throughout the Morning</h4>\nCompared to breakfast skipping, both breakfast meals led to increased fullness and reductions in hunger throughout the morning. fMRI results showed that brain activation in regions controlling food motivation and reward was reduced prior to lunch time when breakfast was consumed in the morning. Additionally, the higher protein breakfast led to even greater changes in appetite, satiety and reward-driven eating behavior compared to the normal protein breakfast. The team concluded, “The addition of breakfast led to alterations in brain activation in regions previously associated with food motivation and reward with additional alterations following the higher-protein breakfast.”(7)\n<h3>Choose Fresh, Non-Processed Food</h3>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n\nWhether you are a meat eater or not, a healthy eating pattern will include a variety of high-quality protein foods throughout the day.

The difference in quality between different brands of supplements is often considerable. And taking quality supplements to help stay healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic is especially important!\n<h3>Coronavirus and Supplementation</h3>\nPlus, since people with low immunity are at a higher risk for coronavirus, then it would be a good idea to boost our immune systems in order to reduce our risk of acquiring it. Supplementation is one part of boosting our immunity. Following a healthy lifestyle, and eating a proper diet will help as well.\n\nThere are many micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc.) that research has shown are very beneficial to our health. And in particular, very beneficial to our immune systems.\n<h4><strong>Vitamin D Helps Reduce Viral Upper Respiratory Infections </strong></h4>\nVitamin D is associated with a reduction in the incidence of colds and influenza.  People with lower vitamin D levels have a higher the prevalence of upper respiratory tract infections from viruses like coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, and influenza. And a single high-dose of vitamin D, combined with antibiotics has been shown to improve and resolve pneumonia.1\n\nOther antioxidants, such as alpha lipoic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E, if  already in the system, are effective for the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress.\n\nGetting overly stressed increases our chance of getting sick. Keep in mind that the immune system is suppressed from excessive exercise, emotional stress, and lack of sleep.\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_4356\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"500\"]<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-4356\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Quality-Supplements-500x500.png\" alt=\"Quality Supplements\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" /> <strong><em>Boost Your Immune System with Quality Supplements</em></strong>[/caption]\n<h4><strong>Various Flavonoid Antioxidants, Such as Quercetin and Grape Seed Extract, Demonstrate Anti-Viral Activity</strong></h4>\nFlavonoid antioxidants, such as quercetin and resveratrol exhibit anti-viral activity against common viruses that cause upper respiratory tract infections, including influenza A (H1N1) and B. And the compounds found in green tea extract, have shown anti-viral activity against the SARS coronavirus. <b>2</b> Since COVID-19 is essentially SARS2, it wouldn\'t be a bad idea to take these micronutrients.\n\nGrape seed extract exhibits potent antioxidant capacity, as well as anti‑bacterial, anti‑viral, anti‑carcinogenic, anti‑inflammatory and anti‑allergic actions. Respiratory viruses cause inflammation in the epithelial cells of the lungs (as does COVID-19), and increase the risk of respiratory distress and pneumonia. Grape seed extract inhibits the abnormal release of proinflammatory cytokines caused by the virus. <strong>3,4</strong>\n<h3>Boost Your Immune System with Quality Supplements</h3>\nAgain, since a low immunity increases the risk of infections, then it makes sense that boosting immunity will help you to remain healthy. And by boosting immunity, your immune system will be better able to deal with the onslaught of viruses and bacteria.\n\nIf you are not taking quality nutritional supplements, you might want to consider doing so, after first consulting with your own licensed health care professional.\n<h3>Choose Quality Supplements</h3>\nQuality pure raw ingredients and quality manufacturing of potent supplements make a huge difference in effectiveness. Not all supplements are created equally.\n\nWe want our supplements to help provide better healthy. When you choose your wine or ice cream, the only physiologic concern is taste. But what a difference between the quality of a cheap product and a good one. Compare the taste of a premium ice cream to the cheap store brand. Compare inexpensive wine to Lafite Rothschild. It should be obvious that the difference between the quality of supplements should be at least as great.\n<h4><em>Quality and Bioavailability Are Important</em></h4>\nBioavailability has to do with how well the supplement is utilized by the body. There is gasoline in coal. But you can’t just run your car on it. Similarly, there are ingredients listed on a supplement’s label that are as useless to your body as coal is to your automobile.\n\nWhat about the quality of components? Take calcium, for example. Oyster shell has calcium, but the body can’t use it (just like your car can’t use the gasoline in coal). Calcium carbonate is cheap, but is not well absorbed. Calcium citrate is much more expensive than the oyster shell or the carbonate. A high quality supplement will use the citrate, a poor one will use oyster shell. There are similar quality issues for just about every vitamin and herb.\n<h4><em>Read the Label on Supplements</em></h4>\nMany companies don’t actually produce their own vitamins, and they don’t test what they buy. Without testing, you can be lied to about the content of the product. Second, by the time the product changes hands several times, anywhere along the line someone can substitute cheaper or even phony ingredients and not be held accountable. The product can be contaminated when it changes hands. Familiarize yourself with ingredients, and read the label.\n<h4><em>Do Your Research</em></h4>\nAre the products tested for quality or for contaminants? Where did the materials come from? Most of the botanicals purchased in the US come from the Far East. There are manufacturing practices in some Third World countries that would surprise many Americans.\n\nHow is the tablet or capsule made? Bioavailability can be affected by something as simple as how the tablet is made. Many manufacturers use inert ingredients that interfere with the absorption of the nutrients. Even capsules can contain inert ingredients that interfere with absorption.\n\nThere’s a lot to know when buying supplements and herbs. Educate yourself about the product quality, and realize that self-treatment with bargain basement supplements is not a good idea.\n<h3>A Combination Approach For Staying Healthy</h3>\nFinally, just taking even quality nutritional supplements is not sufficient. We all need to eat well, get regular restorative sleep, reduce stress, exercise, maintain a healthy weight, not smoke, and use alcohol in moderation. All of these factors affect your immune system’s ability to keep you healthy. Now, as always, it is important to try to follow all of these recommendations as much as possible in order to stay healthy.\n\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\n<h3>References</h3>\n<ol>\n 	<li>Slow S, et al.

The difference in quality between different brands of supplements is often considerable. The supplement quality issue alone makes it important that you get professional help with your nutritional supplementation.\r\n<h3>Coronavirus and Supplementation</h3>\r\nPlus, since people with low immunity are at a higher risk for coronavirus, then it would be a good idea to boost our immune systems in order to reduce our risk of acquiring it. Supplementation is one part of boosting our immunity. Following a healthy lifestyle, and eating a proper diet will help as well.\r\n\r\nThere are many micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc.) that research has shown are very beneficial to our health, and in particular, very beneficial to our immune systems.\r\n<h4><strong>Vitamin D Helps Reduce Viral Upper Respiratory Infections </strong></h4>\r\nVitamin D is associated with a reduction in the incidence of colds and influenza.  People with lower vitamin D levels have a higher the prevalence of upper respiratory tract infections from viruses like coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, and influenza. And a single high-dose of vitamin D, combined with antibiotics has been shown to improve, and resolve pneumonia.1\r\n\r\nAnimal models are useful for studying the results of micronutrients, as it allows researchers to cause illness, and observe the direct results of treatment. Such studies have shown that various antioxidants, such as alpha lipoic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E are beneficial in the premedication of Acute Respiratory Distress. In other words, if antioxidants are already in the system, treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress is more effective. <strong>(18)</strong>\r\n\r\nOf course, we need to do more than just take nutritional supplements, such as eat well, get regular restorative sleep, reduce stress, exercise, maintain a healthy weight, not smoke, use alcohol in moderation or not at all, etc. All these factors affect your immune system’s ability to keep you healthy.\r\n\r\nViral upper respiratory tract infections occur frequently in young people who are overly stressed. The immune system is suppressed from excessive exercise, emotional stress, and lack of sleep. One case study showed that a combination of improved sleep, vitamin D supplementation, along with quercetin (a flavonoid antioxidant) significantly reduced the frequency of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections. <strong>(19)</strong>\r\n<h4><strong>Various Flavonoid Antioxidants, Such as Quercetin, Stilbenes, and Grape Seed Extract, Demonstrate Anti-Viral Activity</strong></h4>\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-1666 alignright\" src=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1024x683.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" srcset=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-768x512.jpg 768w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm.jpg 1800w\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" />Flavonoid antioxidants, such as quercetin and resveratrol exhibit anti-viral activity against common viruses that cause upper respiratory tract infections, including influenza A (H1N1) and B. (20 – 26) Of note, <strong>stilbene</strong> derivatives, (including resveratrol), quercitin derivatives, and the compounds found in green tea extract, have shown anti-viral activity against the SARS coronavirus. <strong>(27 – 30)</strong> Since COVID-19 is essentially SARS2, you cannot blame anyone using such micronutrients at this time.\r\n\r\nGrape seed extract (proanthocyanidin bioflavonoid) exhibit potent antioxidant capacity, as well as anti‑bacterial, anti‑viral, anti‑carcinogenic, anti‑inflammatory and anti‑allergic actions. One significant way respiratory viruses cause death is by  causing an overwhelming system-wide inflammation, known as cytokine storm. Respiratory viruses cause inflammation in the epithelial cells of the lungs (as does COVID-19), and increase the risk of respiratory distress and pneumonia. Grape seed extract inhibits the abnormal release of proinflammatory cytokines caused by the virus. <strong>(31)</strong>\r\n\r\nI have been recommending high quality supplements to my patients since 1995, and although retired from medical practice, I have been actively researching nutritional supplements for over 25 years. If you knew what I know about the benefits of quality supplements, you would never miss a day of taking what I take, especially now with this pandemic; particularly if you have an underlying chronic illness.\r\n\r\nWe know that a low immunity increases the risk of infections, and it stands to reason, that boosting immunity will give you a fighting chance to remain healthy. If nothing else, if you get sick, by boosting immunity, your immune system will be primed to deal with viruses and bacteria, and have the energy needed to cope with the illness, reduce the risk of complications, and shorten the recovery time.\r\n\r\nAlthough, I have been taking a wide range of quality nutritional supplements, twice daily for over 25 years, since COVID-19 first started showing in the U.S, I increased the dose of certain supplements that I have already been taking, particularly a quality beta glucan supplement with zinc, and a quality grape seed extract with vitamin C. If you are not yet taking quality nutritional supplements, such as what I listed below, consider doing so, after first consulting with your own licensed health care professional, of course.\r\n<h4><strong>Beta Glucan Supplement</strong></h4>\r\n<img class=\"alignright wp-image-1360\" src=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm-1024x680.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" srcset=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm-300x199.jpg 300w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm-768x510.jpg 768w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_102957589-sm.jpg 1600w\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" />\r\n\r\nBiologically-active beta glucan polysaccharides are one of the most studied micronutrient immunomodulators that have multiple modes of action. According to many studies, they exert immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral activity, and are therefore an obvious choice for preventing and treating upper respiratory tract infections caused by the rhinoviruses and coronaviruses. <strong>(32)</strong> Beta glucans have proven therapeutic and preventive anti-viral effects against respiratory tract infections in children, adults, and elite athletes. <strong>(33)</strong>\r\n\r\nBeta glucans are fiber polysaccharides derived from the cell membranes of the reishi and shiitake mushrooms, as well as from baker’s yeast extract (Saccharomyces <em>cerevisiae</em>). These polysaccharides (chains of sugar molecules) do not breakdown in the stomach, and therefore do not have any impact on blood glucose levels, nor provide calories. The molecules pass into the intestines and then bloodstream, where they exert their effects on the white blood cells of the immune system.\r\n<h4><strong>Beta Glucans Activate Various White Blood Cells</strong></h4>\r\nBeta glucan polysaccharides directly modulate (activate or trigger) white blood cells, called macrophages, to more effectively attack and kill bacteria, mold/yeast, viruses, and cancer cells. In addition, through cytokine cell signaling, beta glucans trigger B lymphocytes and Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (another type of white blood cells), to activate a complement and antibody response, to create a “one-two” knock-out punch to kill bacteria, cancer cells, viruses, and cells infected with viruses. Through triggering cell-signaling messenger cytokines, beta glucans trigger other white blood cells, called Natural Killer Cells to be armed with cytotoxic chemicals to be able to destroy bacteria, mold/yeast, viruses, and cancer cells.\r\n\r\nBeta glucans have been shown to reduce the number of viral upper respiratory tract infections (common colds, which are caused by rhinoviruses and coronaviruses), and even improves mood. <strong>(34)</strong>  One study among people between the ages of 50 – 70, showed that daily supplementation with beta glucans protected against contracting viral upper respiratory tract infections, and reduced the duration of the symptoms once infected. <strong>(35)</strong>\r\n<h4><strong>Beta Glucans Modulate a Healthy Immune Response and Prevent Cytokine Storm </strong></h4>\r\nBeta glucans heighten, or sharpen the immune response when needed, without causing an over-reaction.\r\n\r\nViral and bacterial respiratory infections can cause organ failure and death through causing widespread inflammation, known as cytokine storm. Cytokines are cell signaling biochemicals, some of which are pro-inflammatory. Cytokines recruit white blood cells to fight infections. Beta glucans cause a normal physiological release of pro-inflammatory cytokines for the recruitment of white blood cells. Most significantly, beta glucans also help prevent the over-reaction caused by the virus, specifically, cytokine storm. <strong>(36)</strong>\r\n\r\nIn addition to their anti-microbial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal effect, beta glucan polysaccharides demonstrate anti-obesity, anti-diabetic, and anti-cancer properties. The first mechanisms of action begins in the gut, where the beta glucans act as prebiotics for the digestive bacteria (probiotics). In addition beta glucans exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and additional immuno-modulating activities.\r\n<h4><strong>Micronutrients Work Synergistically with Other Micronutrients</strong></h4>\r\nBeta glucans work synergistically with other supplements, to work better together to prevent and fight infections of all types. Various micronutrients work synergistically with beta-glucan, such as vitamin D, vitamin C, resveratrol, quercetin, elderberry extract, and grape seed extract.\r\n\r\nFrom all that I have studied and experienced, beta glucans are so powerful in exerting antiviral activity, I believe this is one critical supplement to be taking at this time.\r\n\r\nOrgan transplant recepients should NOT take beta glucans, on the chance that beta glucans may cause the immune system to overcome the immuno-suppressant medications and damage the transplanted organ.\r\n\r\nFor those with an autoimmune disease, you may wish to avoid beta glucan supplements on the theoretical risk of causing the immune system to flareup. However, from all reports I have heard for over three years now, those with autoimmune disorders who are taking 550 mg of beta glucan polysaccharides per day are not experiencing flareups. I only make this warning out of an abundance of caution.\r\n\r\nIt is imperative to understand that I am providing my suggestions and considerations as information only, not as medical advice. Please see the medical disclaimer in the footer about consulting with your personal physician.\r\n<h4><strong>Probiotics</strong></h4>\r\n<img class=\"alignright wp-image-1362\" src=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm-1024x768.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" srcset=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm-300x225.jpg 300w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm-768x576.jpg 768w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_20489962-sm.jpg 1600w\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" />Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that inhabit our intestines. They are among many bacteria that make up our microbiome. Among many roles that the microbiome plays, supporting the immune system is a critical one. <strong>(37, 38)</strong>\r\n\r\nMost people do not have a healthy, or at least optimal microbiome. To support your gastro-intestinal tract, reduce gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, improve digestion, improve mood, and support your immune system, consider taking probiotics daily.\r\n\r\nThe probiotics that have scientifically shown to be beneficial to seed the microbiome, to create a beneficial milieu for other beneficial bacteria to flourish, and stave off the bad bacteria, provide numerous benefits, including reducing upper respiratory infections, are Bifidobacterium BB-12 and Lactobacillus <em>rhamnosus </em>LGG. <strong>(39 – 42)</strong> These two strains can remain viable for up to 18 months at room temperature, and they survive the harsh acidic environment of the stomach, and pass into the intestines to duplicate rapidly to establish a healthy microbiome.\r\n<h4><strong>A Boost of Vitamin C with Elderberry Extract, Zinc, and Echinacea</strong></h4>\r\nAnother supplement that may provide beneficial effects for respiratory infections, at least in the short-term (8 weeks or less), is echinacea.  Studies are mixed on its benefits, but it is seems to be more effective when combined with other micronutrients, particularly when combined with vitamin C, zinc, and elderberry extract. <strong>(43 – 46)</strong>\r\n\r\nSince echinacea should not be used for more than 8 weeks, as it may elevate liver enzymes, or have a negative effect on immunity, I suggest reserving this supplement when actually feeling an illness coming on.\r\n<h3><a name=\"fourteen\"></a><strong>Dr. Ladd’s Nutritional Supplement Considerations to Support Your Immune System</strong></h3>\r\nThe following is the basic protocol for supporting the immune system.

Let’s be aware of those most at risk, and be kind to one another. Most of all, let’s not allow ourselves to knowingly put others at risk. We can mitigate this pandemic, by protecting ourselves and others. We are all in this together, and together we will get through this.\r\n\r\nHerbs, vitamins and minerals are meant to be utilized by the body, to help with physiology and biochemistry.

The difference in quality between different brands of supplements is often considerable. And taking quality supplements to help stay healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic is especially important!\r\n<h3>Coronavirus and Supplementation</h3>\r\nPlus, since people with low immunity are at a higher risk for coronavirus, then it would be a good idea to boost our immune systems in order to reduce our risk of acquiring it. Supplementation is one part of boosting our immunity. Following a healthy lifestyle, and eating a proper diet will help as well.\r\n\r\nThere are many micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc.) that research has shown are very beneficial to our health. And in particular, very beneficial to our immune systems.\r\n<h4><strong>Vitamin D Helps Reduce Viral Upper Respiratory Infections </strong></h4>\r\nVitamin D is associated with a reduction in the incidence of colds and influenza.  People with lower vitamin D levels have a higher the prevalence of upper respiratory tract infections from viruses like coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, and influenza. And a single high-dose of vitamin D, combined with antibiotics has been shown to improve and resolve pneumonia.1\r\n\r\nOther antioxidants, such as alpha lipoic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E, if  already in the system, are effective for the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress.\r\n\r\nGetting overly stressed increases our chance of getting sick. Keep in mind that the immune system is suppressed from excessive exercise, emotional stress, and lack of sleep.\r\n<h4><strong>Various Flavonoid Antioxidants, Such as Quercetin and Grape Seed Extract, Demonstrate Anti-Viral Activity</strong></h4>\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-1666 alignright\" src=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1024x683.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" srcset=\"https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-768x512.jpg 768w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://laddmcnamara.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AdobeStock_64367068-sm.jpg 1800w\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" />Flavonoid antioxidants, such as quercetin and resveratrol exhibit anti-viral activity against common viruses that cause upper respiratory tract infections, including influenza A (H1N1) and B. And the compounds found in green tea extract, have shown anti-viral activity against the SARS coronavirus. <b>2</b> Since COVID-19 is essentially SARS2, it wouldn\'t be a bad idea to take these micronutrients.\r\n\r\nGrape seed extract exhibits potent antioxidant capacity, as well as anti‑bacterial, anti‑viral, anti‑carcinogenic, anti‑inflammatory and anti‑allergic actions. Respiratory viruses cause inflammation in the epithelial cells of the lungs (as does COVID-19), and increase the risk of respiratory distress and pneumonia. Grape seed extract inhibits the abnormal release of proinflammatory cytokines caused by the virus. <strong>3,4</strong>\r\n<h3>Boost Your Immune System with Quality Supplements</h3>\r\nAgain, since a low immunity increases the risk of infections, then it makes sense that boosting immunity will help you to remain healthy. And by boosting immunity, your immune system will be better able to deal with the onslaught of viruses and bacteria.\r\n\r\nIf you are not taking quality nutritional supplements, you might want to consider doing so, after first consulting with your own licensed health care professional.\r\n<h3>Choose Quality Supplements</h3>\r\nQuality pure raw ingredients and quality manufacturing of potent supplements make a huge difference in effectiveness. Not all supplements are created equally.\r\n\r\nWe want our supplements to help provide better healthy. When you choose your wine or ice cream, the only physiologic concern is taste. But what a difference between the quality of a cheap product and a good one. Compare the taste of a premium ice cream to the cheap store brand. Compare inexpensive wine to Lafite Rothschild. It should be obvious that the difference between the quality of supplements should be at least as great.\r\n\r\nQuality and bioavailability are important. Bioavailability has to do with how well the supplement is utilized by the body. There is gasoline in coal. But you can’t just run your car on it. Similarly, there are ingredients listed on a supplement’s label that are as useless to your body as coal is to your automobile.\r\n\r\nWhat about the quality of components? Take calcium, for example. Oyster shell has calcium, but the body can’t use it (just like your car can’t use the gasoline in coal). Calcium carbonate is cheap, but is not well absorbed. Calcium citrate is much more expensive than the oyster shell or the carbonate. A high quality supplement will use the citrate, a poor one will use oyster shell. There are similar quality issues for just about every vitamin and herb.\r\n\r\nMany companies don’t actually produce their own vitamins, and they don’t test what they buy. Without testing, you can be lied to about the content of the product. Second, by the time the product changes hands several times, anywhere along the line someone can substitute cheaper or even phony ingredients and not be held accountable. The product can be contaminated when it changes hands. Sometimes the label claims are fraudulent.\r\n\r\nAre the products tested for quality or for contaminants? Where did the materials come from? Most of the botanicals purchased in the US come from the Far East. There are manufacturing practices in some Third World countries that would surprise many Americans.\r\n\r\nHow is the tablet or capsule made? Bioavailability can be affected by something as simple as how the tablet is made. Many manufacturers use inert ingredients that interfere with the absorption of the nutrients. Even capsules can contain inert ingredients that interfere with absorption.\r\n\r\nThere’s a lot to know when buying supplements and herbs.

Without testing, you can be lied to about the content of the product. Second, by the time the product changes hands several times, anywhere along the line someone can substitute cheaper or even phony ingredients and not be held accountable. The product can be contaminated when it changes hands. Familiarize yourself with ingredients, and read the label.\r\n<h4><em>Do Your Research</em></h4>\r\nAre the products tested for quality or for contaminants? Where did the materials come from? Most of the botanicals purchased in the US come from the Far East. There are manufacturing practices in some Third World countries that would surprise many Americans.\r\n\r\nHow is the tablet or capsule made? Bioavailability can be affected by something as simple as how the tablet is made. Many manufacturers use inert ingredients that interfere with the absorption of the nutrients. Even capsules can contain inert ingredients that interfere with absorption.\r\n\r\nThere’s a lot to know when buying supplements and herbs. Educate yourself about the product quality, and realize that self-treatment with bargain basement supplements is not a good idea.\r\n<h3>A Combination Approach For Staying Healthy</h3>\r\nFinally, just taking even quality nutritional supplements is not sufficient. We all need to eat well, get regular restorative sleep, reduce stress, exercise, maintain a healthy weight, not smoke, and use alcohol in moderation. All of these factors affect your immune system’s ability to keep you healthy. Now, as always, it is important to try to follow all of these recommendations as much as possible in order to stay healthy.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n<h3>References</h3>\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li>Slow S, et al.

MRI\'s should confirm what already is suspected as a result of a thorough patient history and examination.\n<h3>MRI and Surgery</h3>\nIf you are seriously considering surgery, then an MRI is what the orthopedic surgeon will use to map the surgery. <strong>But never have surgery based just on the results of an MRI. </strong>Get another opinion.

And since tendons and ligaments have a poor blood supply to begin with, these injuries are difficult to repair.\n<h3>Treat Shoulder Injuries with Non-Surgical Regenerative Orthopedics</h3>\nWhen conservative measures are tried, and if they fail to result in the sought after results, surgery is often recommended. But surgery takes parts like ligaments, tendons, and labrum out. And once they are removed, they can not be put back. A better approach would be Regenerative Orthopedics, like Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy. These treatments result in effective repair and resolution of the rotator cuff shoulder injury without the need for surgery. The joint tissue can regenerate with Regenerative Orthopedics, and repair can be achieved naturally.\n<h3>Shoulder Arthritis</h3>\nArthritis is another common condition of the shoulder, and shoulder injuries can lead to this problem.

The joint tissue can regenerate with Regenerative Orthopedics, and repair can be achieved naturally.\r\n<h3>Shoulder Arthritis</h3>\r\nArthritis is another common condition of the shoulder, and shoulder injuries can lead to this problem. Regenerative Orthopedics can effectively treat shoulder pain due to arthritis.\r\n\r\nRegenerative Orthopedics helps your body to heal itself. You can get back to doing the activities you love quickly, without the need for surgery, and without extended downtime. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Contact us</a> to find out more.\r\n\r\nRead the full article from the <a href=\"https://www.townsendletter.com\">Townsend Letter</a> below.\r\n\r\nFind out more about <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatments-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> by clicking <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatments-overview/\">here</a>.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-1240 size-full\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/townsend-article-august-2013-1.gif\" alt=\"Rotator Cuff Shoulder Injuries\" width=\"955\" height=\"1249\" />\r\n\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-1241 size-full\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/townsend-article-august-2013-2.gif\" alt=\"&quot;&lt;yoastmark\" />','Rotator Cuff Shoulder Injuries','','inherit','closed','closed','','1537-revision-v1','','','2020-12-20 21:38:47','2020-12-20 21:38:47','',1537,'https://www.drfields.com/uncategorized/1537-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(4371,9,'2020-12-29 22:38:17','2020-12-29 22:38:17','<h3>Knee Pain and Dysfunction</h3>\nAt one time or another, most of us will have had some sort of knee dysfunction or pain. After all, we use our knees on a daily basis. And because the knee is a weight-bearing joint, athletic individuals and overweight people are more prone to knee pain and injuries.\n\nKnee pain can develop suddenly or come on over a period of time. The acute or sudden pain may be the result of a fall or mistep. And pain that develops chronically over time may be the result of an acute injury that never healed correctly. Chronic conditions are the most common cause of knee pain and dysfunction, and the culprit is very often arthritis.\n<h3>Degenerative Joint Disease and Osteoarthritis</h3>\nOsteoarthritis affects most of us as we age, steadily wearing away the smooth cartilage that caps the ends of our long bones. That cartilage is essential for proper motion and function of the joint. The wearing down of the joint can be accelerated by overuse in playing sports, physically demanding jobs, walking, excessive sitting (which increases the pressure within the knee) or just over time through daily wear and tear.\n\nReferred pain, which occurs when a ligament injury or weakness in one part of the body cause pain in another part, may also be involved.\n<h3>Knee Pain Treatments</h3>\nKnee pain will often go away on its on. Heat, ice, massage, PT, acupuncture, chiropractic, laser, and other treatments may help to resolve the pain. But when these treatments do not work, Regenerative Orthopedics, such as Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy are excellent non-surgical treatment solutions. And they can get you back to doing what you love without the need for extended time off.\n\nEven if you have a partial tear in a ligament or tendon, Regenerative Orthopedics can successfully resolve the injury without the need for surgery. If the tear is complete, surgery is necessary. Regenerative Orthopedics are the safest and most effective treatment options for the repair of ligaments, tendons, and cartilage damage.\n\nMany of my patients have had surgery, but still experience pain. Regenerative Orthopedics is still able to help even if you have already had surgery. But if surgery is being recommended, consider the alternative.

These treatments help your body make new cells by boosting the natural healing cascade of the body. This serves to strengthen lax or torn ligaments and tendons, and repairs the damaged structures. It also helps patients avoid joint and spine surgery.\n<h3>When Is It Time To Seek Regenerative Orthopedics?</h3>\nIf you have had chronic pain that remains even after weeks, months, or years of healing, then it\'s time to seek out a practitioner who is experienced in Regenerative Orthopedics. The problem lies in the fact that both ligaments and tendons have poor circulations. And it is this lack of blood supply to the injured area that deprives the injured area of the nutrients it needs to heal properly.\n\nAnd although the blood supply is low, the presence of nerves is not. So these nerves become stretched and irritated in these weakened areas, and the tweaked nerves send out pain signals. Additionally, the ongoing weakness in the ligaments and tendons will also lead to degenerative of the cartilage. Eventually, arthritis will result. It is not uncommon for surgery to be recommended at this point.\n\nBut non-surgical Regenerative Orthopedics is a more logical alternative, and one that does not require extended downtime. Regenerative Orthopedics can help you avoid joint and spine surgery. It can boost healing in your joint and help you to achieve the pain-free results you seek.\n<h3>Regenerative Orthopedics include Stem Cell Therapy, PRP, and Prolotherapy</h3>\n<h4><em>Dextrose Prolotherapy</em></h4>\nDextrose Prolotherapy is just one type of Regenerative Orthopedics. It involves a series of 6-8 treatments with injections of a mild proliferant that stimulates the healing process. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which in long-term studies have been shown to actually weaken tissue. Prolotherapy is effective at eliminating pain in many different painful conditions.\n<h4><em>Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)</em></h4>\nPlatelet Rich Plasma uses the patients own blood to concentrate platelets by a factor of 7 to 10 times. That means there are a lot of growth factors available in this concentrated solution. The solution rich in growth factors can then be injected into the damaged area to catalyze the growth of new soft tissue. PRP is good for structures such as the labrum of the hip and shoulder, the knee meniscus, and some forms of arthritis.\n<h4><em>Stem Cell Therapy</em></h4>\nStem Cell Therapy is derived from the patients own bone marrow stem cells and adipose stem cells. These cells can regenerate tissue like cartilage. Typically, stem cell therapy is used to regenerative articular cartilage, but it can also regenerative ligaments and tendons. This treatment is generally used in more advanced cases, such as degenerative arthritis, severe tendon injuries, and severely degenerated joints.\n\nAll three regenerative techniques accelerate fibroblastic proliferation through cell growth, proteosynthesis, reparation, the remodeling of tissue, and chondrocyte proliferation. All of which amplify the body\'s own repair process and accelerate healing.\n\nRegenerative Orthopedics help you to avoid joint and spine surgery and to live pain free without the need for invasive surgery.

Did you know a single can of sugar-sweetened soda contains about the upper limit of the recommended 25 to 50 g per day?1 Sucrose-sweetened soft drinks increase the risk of disease and have been implicated for decades in cardiometabolic diseases.\n\nSugary beverages are any liquids sweetened with added sugars. And there are many of them like brown sugar, corn sweetener, corn syrup, dextrose, fructose, glucose, high-fructose corn syrup, and more.\n<h3>What kind of drinks are considered sugary beverages?</h3>\nExamples of sugary drinks include regular soda (not sugar-free), fruit drinks, sports drinks, energy drinks, sweetened waters, hot chocolate, chai, and coffee and tea beverages with added sugars.\n\nAll of this sugar has harmful effects. Sugary beverage intake boosts the risk for weight gain, <span class=\"ej-keyword\" data-value=\"metabolic syndrome\">metabolic syndrome</span>, <span class=\"ej-keyword\" data-value=\"type 2 diabetes\">type 2 diabetes</span>, coronary heart diseases, hypertension, and stroke. In one study, over 50,000 deaths from cardiac reasons were attributed to high sugar consumption. 2\n<h3>The Framingham Heart Study</h3>\nThe Framingham Heart Study released the results of an observational study that associates the consumption of sugary drinks to an increased risk for coronary vascular disease and with adverse changes in high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations and may contribute to the development of dyslipidemia.3\n<h4><em>Both Diet and Regular Soft Drinks Increase Disease Risk</em></h4>\nThe researchers expressed surprise that it did not matter whether the soft drink was diet or regular. \"We were struck by the fact that it didn’t matter…the association with increased risk was present.\" said Ramachandron Vasan, M.D., and senior author of the study and professor of medicine at Boston University. \"In those who drink one or more soft drinks daily, there was an association of an increased risk of developing the metabolic syndrome.\"\n<h4><em>Metabolic Syndrome</em></h4>\nMetabolic syndrome is a relatively new term to describe a cluster of cardiovascular disease and diabetes risk factors, including high blood pressure, excess waist circumference, high triglycerides, low HDL, and high fasting glucose.\n\nThe study, which included approximately 9000 person observations of middle-aged men and women, showed that those who consumed one or more soft drinks per day had a 48% percent increase in metabolic syndrome prevalence compared to those consuming less than one soft drink per day.\n\nThere has been some press regarding the potential health effects of high fructose corn syrup, a common but relatively new sweetener. However, the Framingham Heart Study shows an equal risk increase regardless of the soft drink\'s sweetener type.\n<h4><em>How Do Soft Drinks Cause Problems in the Body?</em></h4>\nTheories by the research group include that, potentially, the drinks\' high sweetness makes a person more prone to eat sweet items, that the caramel content in soft drinks may promote the development of advanced glycation end products. And potential complexes of sugars can then result in insulin resistance, which can cause inflammation in experimental models.\n\nThe journal, <i>Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition &amp; Metabolic Care</i> says, \"sugary drinks enhance levels of circulating triglycerides and the accumulation of fat in the liver, muscle, and in the visceral fat depot.  Concerning the mechanisms for SSB to induce these metabolic aberrations? It is mainly <span class=\"ej-keyword\" data-value=\"fructose\">fructose</span> (free or as part of the sucrose molecule) that is the main driver of these metabolic aberrations presumably primarily by inducing lipid synthesis in and release from the liver.\"4\n<h3>Other observations noted in the Framingham Heart Study for people who drink at least one soft drink per day include:</h3>\n<ul>\n 	<li>31 percent greater risk of developing new-onset obesity (defined as a body mass index [BMI] of 30 kilograms/meter2 or more)</li>\n 	<li>30 percent increased risk of developing increased waist circumference.</li>\n 	<li>25 percent increased risk of developing high blood triglycerides or high fasting blood glucose.</li>\n 	<li>32 percent higher risk of having low HDL levels.</li>\n 	<li>A trend towards an increased risk of developing high blood pressure that was not statistically significant</li>\n</ul>\nThe Framingham Heart Study was established in 1948 to identify the common factors or characteristics that contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD) by following its development over a long period of time in a large group of participants who had not yet developed overt symptoms of CVD or suffered a heart attack or stroke. The Framingham Heart Study is a joint project of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, and Boston University.3\n<h3>Summary</h3>\n<h4><em>A recommended amount of soda consumption to maintain health has not been determined. But intake of soft drinks should generally be reduced as much as possible to improve health.Whatever the ultimate mechanism leading to increased risk, it seems like a wise recommendation would be to substitute water for soft drinks.</em></h4>\n<h3>References</h3>\n1World Health Organization.

At times they are a mild nuisance. But headaches can become severe, even disabling, with the pain leading to difficulty at work, concentration and performance of daily activities. </span>\r\n<h3><b>What is the Source of Headaches?</b></h3>\r\n<h4><b><i>Hormones</i></b></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Headaches have different sources, and the causative factors require some investigation. Hormones might be the culprit. Women may experience headaches during the menstrual cycle due to shifts in hormone levels. And when this is the case, there may be a need to balance the hormones, because the woman could have too much estrogen and not enough progesterone.</span>\r\n<h4><em><strong>Diet </strong></em></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Headache pain can often be </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">corrected with diet. Food allergies or sensitivities can trigger headaches. And eating too many carbohydrates or not enough protein, for example, can alter blood chemistry. And that can prompt a headache or foster problems with the hormonal system, which can again lead to headaches.</span>\r\n<h4><strong><i>TMJ Syndrome</i></strong></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Temporomandibular</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> joint (TMJ) problems may contribute to headaches</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Sufferers with TMJ have clicking at this joint, experience facial pain, and may notice a stiff mouth upon awakening after a night’s sleep. And all of this can then lead to a headache. TMJ syndrome, which often includes headaches, requires stabilization of the TMJ joint and ligament. Also, bite problems may be present, necessitating bite equilibration.</span>\r\n<h3><b>The Neck as the Source of Headaches</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not uncommon for the source of headaches to originate in the neck. Do you have neck pain before or during a headache? If you have neck pain followed by a tension or migraine headache, then the source of the headache may very well be coming from your neck. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most common neck problem producing headaches is injury to the ligaments in the neck. How do you know if you have ligament injury in your neck? You will hear grinding, crunching, and popping sounds when you turn your neck. And there is also a high probability that you crack your neck often. Injured ligaments generate instability in the neck, which induces muscle spasms in the neck as the muscles attempt to stabilize it. And the result is referral pain in the form of a tension headache in the forehead, back of the neck, or occiput. </span>\r\n<h4><strong><i>Cervicocranial Syndrome or </i><a href=\"http://jnnp.bmj.com/content/75/2/319.full\"><i>Barré-Liéou</i></a><i> Syndrome</i></strong></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cervicocranial Syndrome, previously known as </span><a href=\"http://jnnp.bmj.com/content/75/2/319.full\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barré-Liéou</span></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Syndrome is a condition that causes a bunch of s</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ymptoms. The symptoms may include headache, dizziness, facial pain, ear pain, vertigo, tinnitus, loss of voice,</span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hoarseness, neck pain and severe fatigue. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instability of the neck or cervical spine is usually the source of these symptoms.</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Neck instability involves increased motion between adjacent vertebrae which causes excessive stress on the supporting ligament structures. And the nerve endings within those structures elicit pain and a variety of symptoms.</span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">neck instability causes extra movement in the neck bones. And this extra motion can cause the bones to push on the nerves and cause irritation of the nervous system, leading to headaches and a bunch of other symptoms. </span>\r\n<h4><strong><i>Occipital Neuralgia</i></strong></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Occipital neuralgia is another headache causing condition related to neck instability. Those with this condition often experience sharp, stabbing pain in the lower part of the neck, the back of the head, and behind their eyes. The pain is typically one-sided. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The occipital nerve, which runs at the back of the head, can cause severe pain when injured. Many folks get nerve blocks for this pain. But these are not always effective at resolving the pain. Any instability of C1, C2, the first two neck vertebrae, can pinch or irritate the occipital nerve. And the extra motion along the spine can kink, press and tighten on the nerves at the base of the skull. Neck instability symptoms include tenderness, clicking, grinding and popping in the back of the head. </span>\r\n<h4><strong><i>Whiplash</i></strong></h4>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Headaches can occur after whiplash injuries. During a whiplash injury the head flexes and extends, in a forward and backward whip that injures the neck ligaments. </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whiplash injuries are a common source of neck instability.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lack of stable neck vertebrae can lead to further injury of the soft tissue and joint structures, as well as the possibility of nerve injury and the irritation of the nervous system. And that can result in headaches and other symptoms. Whiplash often results in long-term pain, which is due to ligament injury and malalignment of the neck vertebrae.</span>\r\n<h3><b>Regenerative Orthopedics Repairs Neck Instability</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regenerative Orthopedics involve the injection of natural substances into the damaged ligaments. The treatment results in tightening, repair, and regeneration of the ligaments involved in TMJ and  neck instability. The area becomes stabilized, thus eliminating the instability, muscle spasms and associated neck and jaw pain and other related symptoms. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those who are tired of the disability and pain of severe headaches, and other conditions related to neck instability, Regenerative Orthopedics is a safe, non-surgical option that stops headache pain, decreases symptoms, and increases functionality in otherwise life-altering conditions.</span>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/EKGWkEAaqTM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"/articles/regenerative-orthopedics/\"> Click here for more articles</a>','Headache Sufferer?

Fields, MD, DC is an expert lecturer on Regenerative Orthopedic therapies and is a sought after speaker for his medical knowledge as both a chiropractor and medical doctor. And in this video, Dr. Fields gives some insight into some of the problems people can encounter when taking too many anti-inflammatories. Check out this <strong>Interview with Dr. Fields on KCAL/CBS About </strong><strong>the Dangers of Anti-Inflammatory Medicines.</strong>\r\n\r\nAnti-inflammatories, such as Ibuprofen and Naproxen, can result in the eventual destruction of a joint, because they actually interfere with the healing process. Dr. Fields discusses this in greater detail in this video.\r\n<h3>Watch the Video</h3>\r\n[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=\"I0HcX8Kcy2k\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" anchor=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Dextrose-Prolotherapy-Overview.jpg\" alt=\"Dangers of Anti-Inflammatory Medicines\'\"]\r\n<h3>Want More Information On Treating the Painful Joint Without NSAIDS?</h3>\r\nProlotherapy, a regenerative therapy, is a non-surgical treatment for joint and spine pain. The treatments are a natural method of assisting the body to heal injured or weakened joints, ligaments, and tendons. They actually boost the body’s own healing abilities.\r\n\r\nWith Prolotherapy (also called Dextrose Prolotherapy), the weakened areas are injected with a solution that stimulates healthy, strong tissues. And as the tendons and ligaments grow stronger and vibrant, the pain is alleviated, and motion is restored.\r\n\r\nIs a joint, ligament, or tendon is causing you pain or limited movement? Then Prolotherapy might be the right choice for you! Prolotherapy can help with arthritis, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/knee-injury-treatment/\">knee injuries</a>, tendonitis (tennis elbow), hip dysfunction, bulging discs, lumbar or cervical spine instability, bursitis, ACL Tears, <a href=\"#\">rotator cuff injuries</a> and more.\r\n<h3>Visit Our Website</h3>\r\nFor more information about Prolotherapy and other Regenerative Orthopedic techniques, please visit our website at <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com\">drfields.com</a>, where you will find many, many articles that describe the various conditions effectively treated with Regenerative Orthopedics.\r\n\r\nSimilar to NSAID\'s, cortisone injections are another common treatment that can end up destroying the joint.

Let\'s take a look at what some of the research says about the benefits of vitamin supplementation in COVID-19.\n<h3>The Immune-mediating, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Roles of Vitamins A</h3>\nIncreasing the level of antioxidant nutrients within the body is thought to have a beneficial effect. And the dietary supplementation of nutrients has been recognized to alter the clinical course and health of patients. Vitamin A supplementation is helpful in many conditions. For example, vitamin A improves pulmonary function test results, has been found to have antimicrobial qualities, addresses vitamin A deficiency to effectively aid in tuberculosis prevention, and has antioxidative properties.\n\n<strong>How does this relate to the benefits of vitamin A in COVID-19?</strong> The pulmonary, immunomodulatory, and antimicrobial roles of vitamin A may provide a crucial element in the fight against viral diseases, including COVID-19! Both oxidative\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_4410\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"425\"]<img class=\"wp-image-4410\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Antioxidants-500x500.png\" alt=\"Antioxidants\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" /> <strong>                      <em>The Benefits of Vitamins During COVID-19</em></strong>[/caption]\n\ndamage and the regenerative capacity of the lungs may be mediated through vitamin A-dependent mechanisms. Plus, it is possible that vitamin A combats viral infections. Because of its role in helping with pulmonary conditions and in building the immune system, oral supplementation of vitamin A is a current topic of investigation in the treatment of COVID-19. 1\n\n&nbsp;\n<h3>What About Vitamin C? Does it Help During COVID-19?</h3>\nOther antioxidants are being studied concerning their role to combat COVID-19. The role these vitamins play in the body and how each boosts the immune system, their role in respiratory infections, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and COVID-19...are all being examined. Vitamin C has an important antioxidant role, plus it may help in the stress response. Vitamin C has been encouraged as a treatment for respiratory infections since the 1930s. We are all familiar with its popularity in the prevention and alleviation of the common cold. And it may also have an antival effect.\n\nStudies do support the beneficial role of vitamin C in reducing the incidence and severity of both bacterial and viral infections. Vitamin C is being investigated as a possible treatment to offset the effects of inflammation and oxidative stress seen in sepsis and ARDS. And there is evidence to suggest that vitamin C helps to regulate the process that occurs in the damaging \'cytokine storm\' in COVID-19. Its possible benefits, plus low cost, and safety profile make it an attractive candidate to help with the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. 1\n<h3>What Are the Potential Benefits from Vitamin D Supplementation During the COVID-19 Pandemic?</h3>\nThe protective role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is well established, as it may significantly increase a person\'s risk of stroke, heart disease, and even death. Plus, intake of vitamin D, as most of us are aware, plays a key role in bone health. Check out our other article which discusses the many benefits of vitamin D called, \"<a title=\"Vitamin D: It’s Not Just For Bones Anymore\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/articles/health-news/vitamin-d-its-not-just-for-bones-anymore/\">Vitamin D: It’s Not Just For Bones Anymore.\"</a>\n<h4><em><strong>But are there any potential benefits from vitamin D supplementation during the COVID-19 pandemic?</strong></em></h4>\nVitamin D benefits the immune system. It plays a role in helping in chronic and acute inflammatory disorders, including autoimmune disease and infections. In fact, higher levels of vitamin D are associated with reduced risk for developing multiple sclerosis, gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders, type 1 diabetes and other immune-mediated disease.

Let\'s take a look at what some of the research is saying about the benefits of vitamin supplementation in COVID-19.\r\n<h3>The Immune-mediating, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Roles of Vitamins A</h3>\r\nIncreasing the level of antioxidant nutrients within the body is thought to have a beneficial effect. And the dietary supplementation of nutrients has been recognized to alter the clinical course and health of patients. Vitamin A supplementation is helpful in many conditions. For example, vitamin A improves pulmonary function test results, has been found to have antimicrobial qualities, addresses vitamin A deficiency to effectively aid in tuberculosis prevention, and has antioxidative properties.\r\n\r\n<strong>How does this relate in the benefits of vitamin A in COVID-19?</strong> The pulmonary, immunomodulatory, and antimicrobial roles of vitamin A may provide a crucial element in the fight against viral diseases, including COVID-19! Both oxidative damage and the regenerative capacity of the lungs may be mediated through vitamin A-dependent mechanisms. Plus, it is possible that vitamin A is combats viral infections. Because of its role in helping with pulmonary conditions and in building the immune system, oral supplementation of vitamin A is a current topic of investigation in the treatment of COVID-19.1\r\n<h3>What About Vitamin C? Does it Help During COVID-19?</h3>\r\nOther antioxidants are being studied in their role to combat COVID-19. The role these vitamins play in the body and how each boosts the immune system, their role in respiratory infections, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and COVID-19...are all being examined. Vitamin C has an important antioxidant role, plus it may help in the stress response. Vitamin C has been encouraged as a treatment for respiratory infections since the 1930\'s. We are all familiar with it\'s popularity for the prevention and alleviation of the common cold. And it may also have an antival effect.\r\n\r\nStudies do support the beneficial role of vitamin C in reducing the incidence and severity of both bacterial and viral infections. Vitamin C is being investigated as a possible treatment to offset the effects of inflammation and oxidative stress seen in sepsis and ARDS. And there is evidence to suggest that vitamin C helps to regulate the process that occurs in the damaging \'cytokine storm\' in COVID-19. Its possible benefits, plus low cost, and safety profile make it an attractive candidate to help with the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. 1\r\n<h3>What Are the Potential Benefits from Vitamin D Supplementation During the COVID-19 Pandemic?</h3>\r\nThe protective role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is well established, as it may significantly increase a person\'s risk of stroke, heart disease, and even death. Plus, intake of vitamin D, as most of us are aware, plays a key role in bone health.

It plays a role in helping in chronic and acute inflammatory disorders, including autoimmune disease and infections. In fact, higher levels of vitamin D are associated with reduced risk for developing multiple sclerosis, gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders, type 1 diabetes and other immune-mediated disease. In addition, it has been suggested that vitamin D could reduce the effect of the exacerbation of the immune response and the complications in the ARDS condition in COVID-19.

Let\'s look at what some of the research says about the benefits of vitamin supplementation in COVID-19.\r\n<h3>The Immune-mediating, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Roles of Vitamins A</h3>\r\nIncreasing the level of antioxidant nutrients within the body is thought to have a beneficial effect. And the dietary supplementation of nutrients has been recognized to alter the clinical course and health of patients. Vitamin A supplementation is helpful in many conditions. For example, vitamin A improves pulmonary function test results, has been found to have antimicrobial qualities, addresses vitamin A deficiency to effectively aid in tuberculosis prevention, and has antioxidative properties.\r\n\r\n<strong>How does this relate to the benefits of vitamin A in COVID-19?</strong> The pulmonary, immunomodulatory, and antimicrobial roles of vitamin A may provide a crucial element in the fight against viral diseases, including COVID-19! Both oxidative\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_4410\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"425\"]<img class=\"wp-image-4410\" src=\"https://www.drfields.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Antioxidants-500x500.png\" alt=\"Antioxidants\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" /> <strong>                      <em>The Benefits of Vitamins During COVID-19</em></strong>[/caption]\r\n\r\ndamage and the regenerative capacity of the lungs may be mediated through vitamin A-dependent mechanisms. Plus, vitamin A may combat viral infections. Because of its role in helping with pulmonary conditions and building the immune system, oral supplementation of vitamin A is a current topic of investigation in the treatment of COVID-19. 1\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3>What About Vitamin C? Does it Help During COVID-19?</h3>\r\nOther antioxidants are being studied concerning their role to combat COVID-19. The role these vitamins play in the body and how each boosts the immune system, their role in respiratory infections, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and COVID-19...are all being examined. Vitamin C has an important antioxidant role, plus it may help in the stress response. Vitamin C has been encouraged as a treatment for respiratory infections since the 1930s. We are all familiar with its popularity in the prevention and alleviation of the common cold. And it may also have an antiviral effect.\r\n\r\nStudies support the beneficial role of vitamin C in reducing bacterial and viral infections\' incidence and severity. Vitamin C is being investigated as a possible treatment to offset the effects of inflammation and oxidative stress seen in sepsis and ARDS. And there is evidence suggesting that vitamin C helps regulate the process that occurs in the damaging \'cytokine storm\' in COVID-19. Its possible benefits, plus low cost and safety profile, make it an attractive candidate to help prevent and treat COVID-19. 1\r\n<h3>What Are the Potential Benefits from Vitamin D Supplementation During the COVID-19 Pandemic?</h3>\r\nThe protective role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is well established, as it may significantly increase a person\'s risk of stroke, heart disease, and even death. Plus, as most of us are aware, vitamin D intake plays a key role in bone health.

Is your Chronic Pain changing your lifestyle and preventing you from doing the things you want to do? If it has, then a doctor might have told you that you need to have surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone injections or take dangerous NSAIDS to treat your chronic pain. In many cases, those may not be the best treatments. Depending on the nature of your injury, you may be able to <strong>treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy</strong>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Pain?</h4>\r\nPain can be defined as a feeling of distress, suffering, or agony, caused by stimulation of specialized nerve endings in the body, resulting from injury or disease. Pain receptors, found in the skin and other tissues are nerve fibres that react to stimuli. Pain impulses enter the spinal cord and are transmitted to your brain, where they are interpreted as pain. The purpose of pain in a person’s body is chiefly protective; pain acts as a warning that tissues are being damaged. This tissue damage can be actual or potential.\r\n\r\n<h4>Acute Pain vs Chronic Pain</h4>\r\nThere are two general categories of pain: acute pain and chronic pain. Acute pain is intense and can last from a few seconds to hours or days. This severe pain should wane as healing of the injury or disease occurs. Chronic pain however, can range from mild to severe and can last weeks, months or longer. Chronic pain is pain that continues or recurs over a prolonged period. Under certain conditions the pain receptors in the body become more sensitive over a period of time. This means that as long as a traumatic stimulus persists, you will continue to be aware that damage to the tissues may still be occurring.\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/apply?sitecode=bb3banpc06182018\" style=\"position:relative; display:inline-block;\"><div class=\"blocker\" style=\"position:absolute; height:100%; width:100%; z-index:1;\"></div><iframe width=\"728\" height=\"90\" class=\"assetIframe\" style=\"border:0\" src=\"//www.carecredit.com/providercenter/assets/views/resourcescenter/promote/assetlistings/getAsset.php?asset=598&mtype=\"></iframe></a>\r\n<h4>Why Am I Still In Pain?</h4>\r\nYou might wonder why there is still pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after healing for weeks, months or years. The answer is that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation. This lack of blood supply deprives these tissues of nutrients they need to heal properly.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> builds stronger or larger tendons or ligaments that can hold body structures in place more effectively. The weakened area heals, and the patient’s pain is reduced or eliminated. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which long-term studies show, can actually weaken tissue.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>Who Uses Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not deal with the cause of the pain. Most of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Athletes with sports injuries are especially interested in the use of Prolotherapy for treatment because it is an alternative to surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone shots, non-steroidal and anti-inflammatories, and chronic use of narcotic pain medications. These measures may not help, and often hinder or even prevent the healing process.\r\n\r\nDo you suffer from <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-knee-pain/\">chronic knee pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">Chronic shoulder pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-neck-pain/\">Chronic neck pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-elbow-pain/\">Chronic elbow pain</a>? Or is your chronic pain somewhere else in your body, such as your back, hips, or ankles? Wherever it is, Dr. Fields may be able to treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Prolotherapy Works</h4>\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\nThe potential for Prolotherapy to eliminate chronic pain is very high, especially in sports injuries that are a result of ligament and tendon weakness. Prolotherapy can regenerate damaged tissues and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain. Our goal at OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup> is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working and training during the recovery process. It is one treatment that encourages movement post-treatment.

Is your Chronic Pain changing your lifestyle and preventing you from doing the things you want to do? If it has, then a doctor might have told you that you need to have surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone injections or take dangerous NSAIDS to treat your chronic pain. In many cases, those may not be the best treatments. Depending on the nature of your injury, you may be able to <strong>treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy</strong>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Pain?</h4>\r\nPain can be defined as a feeling of distress, suffering, or agony, caused by stimulation of specialized nerve endings in the body, resulting from injury or disease. Pain receptors, found in the skin and other tissues are nerve fibres that react to stimuli. Pain impulses enter the spinal cord and are transmitted to your brain, where they are interpreted as pain. The purpose of pain in a person’s body is chiefly protective; pain acts as a warning that tissues are being damaged. This tissue damage can be actual or potential.\r\n\r\n<h4>Acute Pain vs Chronic Pain</h4>\r\nThere are two general categories of pain: acute pain and chronic pain. Acute pain is intense and can last from a few seconds to hours or days. This severe pain should wane as healing of the injury or disease occurs. Chronic pain however, can range from mild to severe and can last weeks, months or longer. Chronic pain is pain that continues or recurs over a prolonged period. Under certain conditions the pain receptors in the body become more sensitive over a period of time. This means that as long as a traumatic stimulus persists, you will continue to be aware that damage to the tissues may still be occurring.\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/go/762HNB/bb3poscustacqbtnclk08132020/?dtc=Ds5X&promocode=CLT/\"><img width=\"275\" style=\"max-width:100%;\" src=\"https://www.carecredit.com/sites/pc/image/carecredit_button_applynow_280x100_a_v1.jpg\"/></a>\r\n<h4>Why Am I Still In Pain?</h4>\r\nYou might wonder why there is still pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after healing for weeks, months or years. The answer is that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation. This lack of blood supply deprives these tissues of nutrients they need to heal properly.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> builds stronger or larger tendons or ligaments that can hold body structures in place more effectively. The weakened area heals, and the patient’s pain is reduced or eliminated. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which long-term studies show, can actually weaken tissue.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>Who Uses Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not deal with the cause of the pain. Most of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Athletes with sports injuries are especially interested in the use of Prolotherapy for treatment because it is an alternative to surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone shots, non-steroidal and anti-inflammatories, and chronic use of narcotic pain medications. These measures may not help, and often hinder or even prevent the healing process.\r\n\r\nDo you suffer from <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-knee-pain/\">chronic knee pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">Chronic shoulder pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-neck-pain/\">Chronic neck pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-elbow-pain/\">Chronic elbow pain</a>? Or is your chronic pain somewhere else in your body, such as your back, hips, or ankles? Wherever it is, Dr. Fields may be able to treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Prolotherapy Works</h4>\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\nThe potential for Prolotherapy to eliminate chronic pain is very high, especially in sports injuries that are a result of ligament and tendon weakness. Prolotherapy can regenerate damaged tissues and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain.

Is your Chronic Pain changing your lifestyle and preventing you from doing the things you want to do? If it has, then a doctor might have told you that you need to have surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone injections or take dangerous NSAIDS to treat your chronic pain. In many cases, those may not be the best treatments. Depending on the nature of your injury, you may be able to <strong>treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy</strong>.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>What is Pain?</h4>\r\nPain can be defined as a feeling of distress, suffering, or agony, caused by stimulation of specialized nerve endings in the body, resulting from injury or disease. Pain receptors, found in the skin and other tissues are nerve fibres that react to stimuli. Pain impulses enter the spinal cord and are transmitted to your brain, where they are interpreted as pain. The purpose of pain in a person’s body is chiefly protective; pain acts as a warning that tissues are being damaged. This tissue damage can be actual or potential.\r\n\r\n<h4>Acute Pain vs Chronic Pain</h4>\r\nThere are two general categories of pain: acute pain and chronic pain. Acute pain is intense and can last from a few seconds to hours or days. This severe pain should wane as healing of the injury or disease occurs. Chronic pain however, can range from mild to severe and can last weeks, months or longer. Chronic pain is pain that continues or recurs over a prolonged period. Under certain conditions the pain receptors in the body become more sensitive over a period of time. This means that as long as a traumatic stimulus persists, you will continue to be aware that damage to the tissues may still be occurring.\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/go/762HNB/bb3poscustacqbtnclk08132020/?dtc=Ds5X&promocode=CLT/\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 275px;\"><img width=\"275\" style=\"max-width:100%;\" src=\"https://www.carecredit.com/sites/pc/image/carecredit_button_applynow_280x100_a_v1.jpg\"/></a>\r\n<h4>Why Am I Still In Pain?</h4>\r\nYou might wonder why there is still pain in an injured area or why that area remains weak, even after healing for weeks, months or years. The answer is that both ligaments and tendons have very poor circulation. This lack of blood supply deprives these tissues of nutrients they need to heal properly.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-treatment-overview/\">Prolotherapy</a> builds stronger or larger tendons or ligaments that can hold body structures in place more effectively. The weakened area heals, and the patient’s pain is reduced or eliminated. Prolotherapy is an excellent alternative to cortisone injections, which long-term studies show, can actually weaken tissue.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>Who Uses Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not deal with the cause of the pain. Most of the time, musculoskeletal pain is due to weakness in the ligaments, tendons and possibly cartilage. Athletes with sports injuries are especially interested in the use of Prolotherapy for treatment because it is an alternative to surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone shots, non-steroidal and anti-inflammatories, and chronic use of narcotic pain medications. These measures may not help, and often hinder or even prevent the healing process.\r\n\r\nDo you suffer from <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-knee-pain/\">chronic knee pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-shoulder-pain/\">Chronic shoulder pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-neck-pain/\">Chronic neck pain</a>? <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-elbow-pain/\">Chronic elbow pain</a>? Or is your chronic pain somewhere else in your body, such as your back, hips, or ankles? Wherever it is, Dr. Fields may be able to treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>Why Prolotherapy Works</h4>\r\nProlotherapy works because it stimulates an inflammatory reaction in the body. Solutions are injected into the affected ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area. The localized inflammation triggers the deposition of new collagen, the material in which ligaments and tendons are made. New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\nThe potential for Prolotherapy to eliminate chronic pain is very high, especially in sports injuries that are a result of ligament and tendon weakness. Prolotherapy can regenerate damaged tissues and ultimately alleviate the problem causing the pain. Our goal at OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup> is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working and training during the recovery process. It is one treatment that encourages movement post-treatment. Movement actually aids the healing process after Prolotherapy.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are You A Candidate For Prolotherapy?</h4>\r\nWhether your chronic pain is from a back injury, a work-related injury, or a sports injury, you can treat your chronic pain with Prolotherapy. <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Contact us for a consultation</a> to see if you are a candidate or get a second opinion for a recommended surgery.

To be engaged in everyday activities -- standing, walking, running, and even lying down -- you need to have normal knee function. But if you have chronic pain in your knee, you are prevented from doing all of that and more. Moreover, many conventional treatments include surgery, arthroscopy, cortisone, and NSAIDS, but sometimes those treatments can hurt more than they help. That is why so many people turn to Regenerative Orthopedics to treat persistent joint pain.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\"> Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n<h4>What Causes Knee Pain?</h4>\r\nThe knee begins at the lower end of the thigh bone (femur), which rotates on the shin\'s upper end (tibia). The knee cap (patellae) slides in a groove on the end of the femur. Large ligaments attach the femur to the tibia, providing stability to the leg.\r\n\r\nCommon causes of knee pain are arthritis. For example, if you are experiencing minor pain, clicking, giving way, or ‘trick knee,’ you may be feeling the first symptoms of arthritis. Plus, arthritis can begin in people as early as thirty years of age. And this may progress for years before symptoms appear. Acute knee pain, sudden and intense, is usually the result of an injury. Acute knee pain, accompanied by significant inflammation and swelling, can be caused by gout or even infection.\r\n\r\nThe most common cause of long-lasting or chronic knee pain is osteoarthritis. And other forms of arthritis, rheumatoid, traumatic, and gouty, can also cause chronic pain in the knee joint. Additionally, pseudogout, bursitis, tendonitis, <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/sports-injuries/sports-injuries-treatment-overview/\">sports injuries</a>, degenerative joint disease, and chondromalacia patellae can also cause knee pain. As we age, the smooth and resilient cartilage on our long bones\' ends wears down, but this cartilage is needed for normal joint function.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/go/762HNB/bb3poscustacqbtnclk08132020/?dtc=Ds5X&promocode=CLT/\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 275px;\"><img width=\"275\" style=\"max-width:100%;\" src=\"https://www.carecredit.com/sites/pc/image/carecredit_button_applynow_280x100_a_v1.jpg\"/></a>\r\n<h4>How Does Regenerative Orthopedics Work for Chronic Knee Pain?</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises.

The neck enables the head to move and to rotate, but if you can\'t move your neck normally, your life can be severely disrupted and your activities can be limited. Depending on the cause and type of your neck injury or condition, your best choice may be prolotherapy for chronic neck pain.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">  Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<h4>What Causes Neck Pain?</h4>\r\nYour neck is composed of seven cervical vertebrae. These vertebrae support your head, serve as an attachment point for the muscles that move your head, and protect the spinal cord between the brain and thoracic vertebrae.\r\n\r\nSymptoms of <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-faq/\">neck pain</a> can include:\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Headaches</li>\r\n 	<li>Pain in the shoulder, arm or hand</li>\r\n 	<li>Reduced range of motion in the neck</li>\r\n 	<li>Numbness, weakness, and slower reflexes in the arms, legs, hands and feet.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\nIf you are experiencing minor neck pain, you may be experiencing early symptoms of arthritis. Osteoarthritis can begin as young as thirty and symptoms may begin to appear years after the disease begins.\r\n\r\nA strain or spasm of the muscles in the neck or inflammation of the neck can be the causes of the neck pain you feel. Pain in the neck can also be caused by injury such as whiplash or a blow to the head or neck while playing sports. Cervical disk degeneration, a pinched nerve, meningitis, influenza, a heart attack or torticollis, can also be causes of neck pain. Anything that causes stress on the muscles in the upper body and arms, including poor posture, and sleeping on a pillow that is too high, can be causes of localized neck pain.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/go/762HNB/bb3poscustacqbtnclk08132020/?dtc=Ds5X&promocode=CLT/\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 275px;\"><img width=\"275\" style=\"max-width:100%;\" src=\"https://www.carecredit.com/sites/pc/image/carecredit_button_applynow_280x100_a_v1.jpg\"/></a>\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Neck Pain</h4>\r\nMany patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises.

Solutions are injected into the affected shoulder  ligaments, tendons, or joints, which leads to local inflammation in that specific area.

New collagen shrinks as it matures and tightens the ligament that was injected, making it stronger.\r\n\r\n<h4>Are you a Candidate For Prolotherapy for Chronic Shoulder Pain?</h4>\r\nOur goal at OrthoRegen<sup>®</sup> is for our patients to have an active, healthy, pain-free life. Prolotherapy is a very safe, affordable option that allows you to keep working, training and living a normal life during the recovery process.

Most blows to the elbow are not strong enough to fracture it. But the ligaments or tendons are usually injured. Depending on the injury or condition, <strong>prolotherapy for chronic elbow pain </strong>may give you permanent relief.\r\n<h3><strong>Ligament Injuries in the Elbow</strong></h3>\r\nThese injuries may involve a tear in the <strong>annular ligament</strong>, which wraps around the radius bone to the humerus bone. These ligaments take all the strain when the lower arm turns. Twisting a screwdriver, turning a key or hitting a baseball are all activities that use the annular ligament.\r\n\r\n<a class=\"buttonlink\" href=\"https://www.drfields.com/contact/\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!</a>\r\n\r\n<strong>Tendon Injuries in the Elbow</strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/regenerative-techniques/dextrose-prolotherapy/prolotherapy-faq/\">Elbow pain</a> can also involve tendon injury, as in the cases of tennis or golfer’s elbow. The <strong>extensor tendons</strong> move the wrist up, and in tennis elbow, these can be damaged. In golfer’s elbow, it is the <strong>flexor tendons</strong> that get injured, as they move the wrist down. It is not rare for us to see elbow and hand pain that has been misdiagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome involves the entrapment of the median nerve where the wrist and hand connect.\r\n\r\nOther causes of elbow pain include tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, elbow strains and infections.\r\nCommon symptoms of elbow injury are: pain, swelling, numbness, tingling in the arm, weakness, and changes in temperature or colour of the skin. A patient may not remember having a specific injury, especially if symptoms began gradually or during usual activities.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.carecredit.com/go/762HNB/bb3poscustacqbtnclk08132020/?dtc=Ds5X&promocode=CLT/\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 275px;\"><img width=\"275\" style=\"max-width:100%;\" src=\"https://www.carecredit.com/sites/pc/image/carecredit_button_applynow_280x100_a_v1.jpg\"/></a>\r\n<h3><strong>The Most Common Elbow Injuries </strong></h3>\r\n<strong>But eighty percent of chronic elbow pain is caused by spraining the annular ligament</strong>, which attaches the radius bone to the ulnar bone. Because of the heavy demands placed on the fingers and hands by performing repetitive tasks, the annular ligament is stressed daily and could become a source of chronic pain. Another source of chronic elbow pain is strain of the ulnar collateral ligament. This ligament supports the inside of the elbow and holds the ulnar bone to the humerus.\r\n<h4>How Prolotherapy Is Used To Treat Chronic Elbow Pain</h4>\r\nConventional medical treatments may relieve the symptoms of elbow pain, but they do not remedy the underlying cause of the problem. That\'s why many patients come to us tired of ‘managing’ their chronic pain with NSAID or narcotic medications, various therapies, and exercises. In many cases, these methods do not remove the cause of the pain.\r\n\r\nDr. Fields may be able to <a href=\"https://www.drfields.com/conditions/chronic-pain/chronic-pain-overview/\">treat your chronic pain with prolotherapy</a>.
