Chiropractic Education Poses New Threat to Public Health With New Proposal

The Council on Chiropractic Education, the monopoly accrediting authority for the chiropractic profession, is about to adopt new rules that could pose a real threat the well-being of millions of Americans.

Data from the Copenhagen City Heart Study recently published proves this point, concluding that less educated people are much more likely to be hospitalized for chronic heart failure.

Health education begins in American elementary schools, but students who fail to achieve any education beyond high school often have only the most basic knowledge of how the human body works and what a person should do to maintain his or her health. Because low education levels generally coincide with poverty, researchers have also linked heart disease to people of low economic status.
