    Can chiropractic care really help with more than just back pain?

    What if your baby’s colic, your teen’s concussion, or your own low energy had something to do with your spine?


    In this powerful episode of Take On Healthcare, pharmacist Mary Sheehan and naturopathic doctor Dr. Ted Suzelis sit down with experienced chiropractor Dr. Suzanne Shaw—and what unfolds is a jaw-dropping conversation about how chiropractic care impacts every stage of life… from newborns to aging adults.


    🌀 You’ll learn how gentle adjustments using the Activator Method can improve nervous system function, support natural healing, and even play a role in emotional release and spiritual growth. Dr. Shaw also shares how chiropractic care has helped infants latch, athletes recover faster, and adults avoid unnecessary surgery.


    💥 Whether you’re a seasoned chiropractic patient or a total skeptic, this episode will challenge what you thought you knew—and leave you wondering: Why aren’t more people talking about this?

  • The Calcium Trap - Brittle Bones vs Heart Attack
    Mar 28 2025

    Are your supplements silently hurting your heart?

    Do you know the one nutrient that decides whether calcium heals or harms you?


    In this powerful episode, Mary and Dr. Ted are joined by special guest Dr. Ian Suzelis, an osteopathic primary care doctor, to unpack one of the most overlooked health traps: excess calcium without the right co-nutrients.


    Together, they reveal the vital—but often missing—role of Vitamin K2 and how it works with Calcium and Vitamin D to protect both your bones and your heart.


    Discover how this trio of nutrients can:

    - Direct calcium away from arteries and into bones

    - Reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney stones

    - Improve insulin sensitivity and support metabolic health


    If you're taking calcium or vitamin D without K2… this could change everything.


    What You'll Learn:

    * Why calcium supplements alone may do more harm than good

    * The science behind Vitamin K2 and its protective power

    * Dr. Ian’s insights from clinical practice on nutrient synergy

    * The metabolic link between bone health and blood sugar

    * How to safely optimize your nutrient intake
