DID YOU KNOW? Many medical professionals attest that, when consumed in moderation, caffeine actually can have a number of health benefits. Consider the following health benefits of caffeine. · Caffeine boosts brain and central nervous system function. Caffeine mimics the shape of another compound in the body called adenosine, which helps the body calm down and become sleepy. Caffeine can fit in adenosine receptors and cause a jolt of energy rather than sleepiness. Harvard researchers have found that blocking adenosine may slow the buildup of a toxic brain plaque that is associated with Alzheimer's disease.

Furthermore, caffeine may help keep dopamine molecules active in the brain and prevent the onset of Parkinson's disease. · Caffeine can help improve mood. The stimulant effect of caffeine may help boost people's moods, and thus reduce the propensity for suicidal thoughts. In 2013, Harvard's School of Public Health found that respondents who drank two to three cups of caffeinated coffee a day cut their suicide risk by 45 percent.

DID YOU KNOW?

• Lower back pain is a problem that plagues millions of people and can lead to lost hours of work, poor quality of life and reduced mobility.

• According to Global Burden of Disease 2010, low back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide.

• People spend around $50 billion each year on back pain treatments. One solution to back pain is to consult with a chiropractor. The American Chiropractic Association says chiropractic spinal manipulation is a safe and effective pain treatment. It also can help return mobility and flexibility to the back.

• Chiropractic care may be a good first step to alleviate pain and discomfort in the back.

14 Either way, Christ’s love controls us. Since we believe that Christ died for all, we also believe that we have all died to our old life. 15 He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them.
