Kids and nutrition. Fernandina Beach
kids don’t think about it. Fernandina Beach parents don’t always think about
it. But Fernandina Beach nutrition is important in Fernandina Beach
kids’ spinal development and growth and Fernandina Beach chiropractic care.
Good nutrition also boosts good spine and bone
development which your Fernandina Beach chiropractor thinks about!
Amelia Chiropractic Clinic talks nutrition whenever the opportunity arises. A good Fernandina Beach nutritional foundation as a youth potentially leads to a healthier spinal life.
WHAT’S HOLDING YOUTH BACK?
So what keeps Fernandina Beach young people
and their Fernandina Beach parents from thinking about their nutritional
status? Expectedly the same things that hold young adults back - belief
their diet is correct, no symptomatology, and misperception
of nutrient sources. (1) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic knows that a life experience
draws notice.
WAKE-UP CALLS
When do young people think about their
nutritional status? At the same time it would garner the attention of
an adult - when there is pain. Incredibly, 71% of
schoolchildren aged 12-17 years say that they had at least one
episode of low back pain. (2) 17.4% of students recount
cervical spine pain. 18% report low back pain. Older
adolescents (24.4%) have more cervical spine pain
than younger ones (11.9%). Older
adolescents (25.1%) suffer more lumbar spine pain than
younger ones (12.4%), too. (3) More girls than boys report back pain. (4) As
researchers describe, Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees that
Fernandina Beach kids with spine pain have some things in common that put
them at risk for Fernandina Beach back pain and
neck pain.
RISKS FOR Fernandina Beach BACK PAIN
What puts kids at risk of spine pain? Lots of factors
like limited sun exposure, inadequate vitamin d diets, adiposity, lower
physical activity, sedentary lifestyles, vitamin 25 (oh) d deficiency, and lower
levels of calcium, creatine kinase, and lactic dehydrogenase. (2) Inactive adolescents have more cervical and lumbar spine pain than
active kids. (3) In an 8-month study period, 52.2% of schoolchildren had
low back pain. 34% had moderate and 18% had severe back pain. More girls (36%) than boys (24%) report back
pain. Schoolchildren with moderate and severe pain had higher body mass indices, waist, hip and
waist-to-hip ratios. (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic assesses Fernandina Beach
back pain kids and adults to test for risks and set
a treatment plan to prevent them from developing
into painful realities.
