Degenerative Disc Disease
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE… If you have been told you have degenerative disc disease, you may want to watch this video and check http://
“Quick tip for those suffering or been told that they have Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD). This is a label and a term and it means nothing; there is no such thing as DDD. If you look it up online and it’ll tell you this is not a disease. Everybody has degenerating discs, it’s part of getting older and I heard Dr. Stuart McGill say when you go to a Doctor’s office (Dr. Stuart McGill is one of the leading spine specialist in the world) and he’d say, when you go to the Doctor’s office and they see wrinkles on your face they don’t tell you, “You have degenerative face disease,” right? Because no one would accept that or buy that. But as soon as somebody accepts that they have DDD they believe that they have a disease when the true cause of all degeneration is typically stress, diet, are you getting the minerals? Are you intaking inflammatory foods? etc., etc., like, are you gluten intolerant, but you eat gluten which has an affinity for collagen so it attacks the collagen that wears down the joints faster, etc.
So, main thing is there is no such thing as Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD). Everybody above the age of 50 when they look at a cadaver their disc are degenerated. Now, some are degenerated a little faster, because everybody’s different and some degenerates slower. Now, if you’re someone that the disc degenerates faster, then I would highly recommend:
- Looking at your diet
- Looking at your stress level
- Looking at your exercise/ activity level
How often are you moving? How often are you sitting? If you’re sitting, that is one of the most dangerous things for your back, like if you are sitting all day and you’re in a certain position where you are not activating your abs, you’re putting stress on your lower back, then this can cause your disc to degenerate because it is not getting the oxygen, the blood flow and the nutrients that it needs. And the nutrients is transferred through synovial fluid which is released through compression on the back. So compression is needed to keep your back healthy which means that you need to be lifting or doing things that cause compression on the spine and this is how we get nutrients and blood flow but if you’re sitting all day what happens is you create a lack of blood flow and energy to the certain area. Imagine you sit 8 hours a day, that’s 1/3 of your day, you are sleeping the other 8 hours typically right? So in between that time the time that you’re sitting and sleeping there is not much going on, so activity level is very important. So when you’re in between those two 8 hours of sitting and sleeping, you should be doing some activity right? that’s why we’ve created Back Pain Relief4Life, because it helps people get blood flow, nutrients and oxygen to their back so that they can come back, de-stress the lack of activity, the lack of blood flow, and nutrients to the back. So there’s no such thing as Degenerative Disc Disease; really it comes down to you being your own best doctor with nutrients, stress level, activity level and that’s gonna be the main three things that affect your back. So you make sure you focus on those areas and you should see 90% of all back issues and DDD go away if you’re able to incorporate healthy lifestyle and nutrition, reducing stress and activity level.”

Is Degenerative Disc Disease Really A Disease
“Hey! What’s going on? It’s Ian Hart here with backpainrelief4life.com. I’m a Back Pain Relief Expert. And today we are going to be speaking about Degenerative Disc Disease.
We see a lot of people with various issues with their back, a myriad of issues coming in all the time from whatever – spine stenosis, bulging disc, we hear it all. I’d say about 20% of the time people come in and they say “Oh, I have degenerative disc disease” and I explain to people that there’s no such thing as degenerative disc disease – everybody has degenerating discs. We want to limit the speed and the rate at which they generate through moving properly, that’s part of what our back program is about. So moving properly is going to prevent you from causing injury to the discs, to the back and therefore, wearing the disc down. We want longevity in the disc. I was very pleased to see that actually Web MD when I was doing a research and just trying to see what doctors say because doctors tell people they have a disease. How do you feel if you’re told you have a disease but you don’t actually have a disease? All of a sudden that changes everything in your mind and think “Oh I have a disease. Now, poor me… I have a disease that’s the reason why I have back pain.” That’s not the reason why you have back pain and back pain can actually be eliminated and you don’t have to live with back pain.
Web MD says, what is degenerative disc disease? Degenerative Disc Disease is not really a disease but a term used to describe the normal changes in your spinal disc as you age. So instead of a doctor telling somebody “Oh that’s just an aging disc, you have an aging disc”, they’ve gone “oh ,you have degenerative disc disease”. Instead of saying oh that’s totally normal, people think that they’re doomed for the rest of their lives because they have a disease and that they’re gonna live with this disease (Degenerative Disc Disease).
And this weekend, I got to spend about 16 hours with Dr. Stuart McGill. He’s one of the leading, the world’s best spine specialists. He’s a professor at the University of Waterloo and he said something that I really found funny but I also enjoyed because it helps understand if a doctor said something like this to you how would you react. So Degenerative Disc Disease, the doctor might say to you “but what if you saw wrinkles on your face and he said oh you have degenerative face disease because you have wrinkles on your face.” What would you say about that? What would you feel about that? It seems kind of silly that there’s a term called degenerative disc disease when all it really means is that your disc is aging; just like everybody else in the world, if you cut every person open after the age of 50. You’re gonna see that every disc is degenerative to some degree, that’s a fact we know that.
So remember, Degenerative Disc Disease if you were told you have Degenerative Disc Disease, you do not have a disease. You have a normal aging spine. If you have pain in your back, it is most likely do to improper movement patterns. So, what you can do is go ahead and click the link below and get started on the program that can help reverse the aging process, get more blood flow and nutrients to the discs, take pressure off the disc so they stop degenerating faster and therefore get rid of your pain.
