In a landmark study published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research, chiropractors collaborating with researchers at the University of Lund found that chiropractic care could influence basic physiological processes affecting oxidative stress and DNA repair. Serum Thiols are primary antioxidants, and serve as a measure of human health status. The test provides a surrogate estimate of DNA repair enzyme activity, which has been shown to correlate iwht lifespan and aging. Patients under Chiropractic care for 2 to 12 months had significantly elevated Serum Thiol levels. Patients under 1-6 years of Chiropractic wellness care – levels were the highest.

The Chiropractic Research Journal reports remarkable response for patients with AIDS following specific chiropractic adjustments. AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) patients have low CD4 counts representing a weak immune system. HIV positive individuals were measured by CD4/mm3 in the blood and the tests were performed by the patient’s independent medical centers where they were under care. A 48% increase in CD4 cells was demonstrated over the six-month duration of the study for the group receiving chiropractic adjustments. The control group experienced a 7.96% decrease and the adjusted group experienced a 48% increase in CD4 cell levels.
