Credentialing alone doesn’t guarantee compliance expertise

Legal Ease When one of the authors of this article had the opportunity to attend a seminar on street gangs sponsored by a university in Illinois, the instructor for the class was touted as being an expert on various gangs across the nation. While attending the morning session, however, he was disappointed and, rather than returning for the afternoon portion, he returned to the training academy to get some work done.

It has caused food in the U.S. to be among the most highly processed and least nutritious on earth, and peoples’ high rate of sugar and carbohydrate intake promotes the growth of fungus (like Candida) in the gut The preservatives in food that are designed to kill bacteria in food products also kill the beneficial bacteria that are needed for proper gut health.

Employers are dealing with rising insurance costs that are taking a big bite out of the bottom line. They are searching for an answer that will reduce costs and maximize the productivity of their employees, while protecting their profitability. At the same time, chiropractors are searching for ways to decrease their dependence on third-party insurance reimbursement with cash-based services.

The opportunities with professional licensure exams you can't afford to miss

Feature Excuse me, but we’re doctors, too, is something you occasionally want to say when you hear comparisons made between MDs and DCs. After all, you have much of the same training, and in the area of neuromuscular and spinal health, you’re a specialist. But when it comes to pre-employment and fitness-for-duty examinations, you’ll find what amounts to a level playing field. This didn’t happen by accident.
