Dr. DeAnne Asks some important questions of interest to Benicia residents - Chiropractor Benicia Dr. DeAnne Asks...

How do you "catch" a cold?
Simply lower your resistance by avoiding the proper rest and exercise, eating lots of sugar and junk food, putting up with emotional stress and neglecting your nervous system by avoiding your chiropractor. You won't have to catch a cold because it will catch you!
What's the purpose of a surgeon's mask?
When I ask most people in Benicia this, most think it protects the patient from the doctor's germs. But it's so porous it does little to prevent the passage of germs. We chiropractors don't bother with masks.

Nutrition & Diet

The Weston A. Price Foundation
There are many theories on diet. I have "gone shopping" and studied the works of many people, associations and government agencies. This is my favorite source. The Weston A. Price Foundation has no hidden agenda or corporate underwriting. They just want to help people improve their health. Their material should be required learning for all doctors. Includes exceptional recipes for baby formulas.

Local Harvest
A CSA, (for Community Supported Agriculture) is a way for the food buying public to create a relationship with a farm and to receive a weekly basket of produce. CSA is a partnership of mutual commitment between a farm and a community of supporters which provides a direct link between the production and consumption of food. This mutually supportive relationship between local farmers, growers and community members helps create an economically stable farm operation in which members are assured the highest quality produce, often at below retail prices.
