Green Beans and Rice with Pesto
This is one of those dishes that is super quick when you have leftover rice and some basil pesto in the fridge. If you haven’t tried this simple basil oil (pesto) recipe check it out here.
I am still getting green beans from the garden–it does make a difference when they are fresh. If you don’t have garden green beans, try your local farmers market.
One other note: the rice I used was cooked in chicken broth–recipe is here. Vary the amount of rice you use based on how much starch you are hungry for!
Serves 2
2 cups chopped green beans steamed until just tender
1 to 2 cups cooked brown jasmine or basmati rice
1/4 cup basil oil
sea salt to taste
Once green beans are cooked to your liking, drain any water in the pan and add the rice. Warm over low heat. Take off the heat and stir in the basil oil and salt if desired. Serve immediately.
BEWARE FAKE MEATS!
Anyone who eats needs to be informed about our food supply–it’s just too easy to make bad choices while thinking you are doing good for yourself and the planet. Check out this interview in the Price-Pottenger newsletter for the nitty-gritty on fake meats. I couldn’t agree more—Excellent job!

A Real Head Turner
Please explain why you came to our office.
“My neck was causing constant pain both on my job and at home. I would have intermittent pain in my lower back and daily pain in my right forearm and hand.”
Please describe your response to treatment.
“It is very remarkable that while my neck isn’t completely cured yet (I’m on my 4th visit), it is not causing me constant pain. I am able to turn my head much easier. My arm feels better. I do feel like a newer woman.”

Is Your Inflammation From Eating the Wrong Fats?
We now offer the OmegaQuant tests for quick and easy determinations of the body’s balance of fats (pro-inflammatory vs. anti-inflammatory), vitamin D, and even hemoglobin A1C. A simple finger prick and collection of a drop of blood is all it takes. These are all very important indicators of whether the diet is anti-inflammatory, immune-system supportive, and supportive of healthy pregnancy/lactation. With these results we can make specific diet recommendations to address any insufficiencies/imbalances. Ask for more information by calling our office or scheduling an appointment with Monica.
Take Nothing For Granted
Please explain why you came to our office.
“I started bringing my daughter to see Dr. Burgoon because she had lower back pain and her gait was off. She was unable to take stairs by alternating her feet.”
Please describe your response to treatment.
“Since being treated a few months by Dr. Burgoon, she no longer complains of back pain, her posture and gait have improved. She is now able to go up and down stairs by alternating her feet.”

Commit to Eating Only Organically Grown Food!
There are many good reasons for supporting organic agriculture (and having an organic garden if you can) but this one strikes home powerfully. The industry-friendly EPA allows “biosolids”, a euphemism for human sewage, to be spread as fertilizer on US farm fields. Sewage is contaminated extensively with “forever chemicals”, toxins that accumulate and persist in the sewage, in the crops, and in people who eat them. Organic standards do not allow sewage to be spread on organically certified farms so organically grown food is safe from sewage. If you buy locally, be sure to ask growers what they are using as fertilizer and whether they use “biosolids”.
Time to be a Different Person
Please explain why you came to our office.
“Sick and tired of being sick and tired. Having to use motorized carts in Walmart and the Arc Encounter. Feeling like an invalid when getting together with friends and family. Then my 60th class reunion was coming up and they said there would be handicapped provisions. I did not want to participate in them, so I decided to try diet and chiropractic services and prayer.”
Please describe your response to treatment.
“It’s hard to describe except that I feel like a different person. My prayers were answered. I have so much energy!! About 80 or 90% less pain, less time on the couch. Mental clarity is much improved and mental attitude is better. I’ve even lost 5 pounds without even trying. At the reunion, I walked a lot, went down stairs without even holding the rail and not stopping for each one using the same foot! Normal stepping. I refused biscuits and gravy, BBQ pork, cold slaw, baked beans. I brought homemade healthy muffins and granola bars and fruit!”
