First Picture of Influenza Virus

Today the first picture of an influenza virus was released. It was made by a computer. When you see it, it is hard to imagine how a virus can cause so much damage. A body is made of cells. Those cells have at their center a D.N.A. molecule. The D.N.A. is the orination of the…

The Death of Saddam

The big story today is the death of Saddam. I will leave the politics aside. What actually happens to someones body when they die? How do we define death? It is simply the ending of the nervous system. It is the cessation of function of the nervous system. In chiropractic we work to simply keep…
