The attendance Notes on Chiropractic By DR. HENRY L. FOLEY THE PHYSIOLOGY OF AGING — Considerable re search has been done to de termine what changes occur in body tis sues as age advances. Re searchers learned that the number of cells in organs de creases with age. However, they have not learned why some people age more rapidly than others. When this is learned, it may be possible to enable "many more people to live as long as those who live longest today.” Research has revealed that nerve fibers decline less rap idly with age than other tis sues. For example, we read. "The nerve fibers that con nect directly with the mus cles show little decline with age." This durability of the nerve system is interesting. In the study of embryology we learn that nerve tissue develops early in the newly forming body. These facts of early-to-develop and late-to decline indicate the great importance of the nerve system to the function and health of all organs. There is scientific support for the chiropractic asser tion that, "The most common basic cause of disease is in terference with normal nerve action."
