About Dr. Xerxes Oshidar D.C., D.A.A.P.M
As an avid sports fan and weekend warrior, Dr. Oshidar has made it his business to verse himself in the nature of sports injuries with particular focus on the spine. He has completed courses towards a certification as a certified sports chiropractor. Additional certifications include a Diplomate from the American Academy of Pain Management (DAAPM) and certification to perform Manipulation under Anesthesia (MUA) with staff privileges at Surgicare Amsurg Ctr Bronx, NY and Synergy Amsurg Ctr Brooklyn, NY.
In private practice since August 1998 after Magna Cum Laude graduation from Life Chiropractic University, Dr. Oshidar has treated hundreds of people with neck and back pain following major trauma like auto and work accidents as well as repetitive stress injuries and has found that those who choose to implement exercise and balance therapy with standard Chiropractic Manipulation and/or DTS Decompression and/or MUA will achieve their desired results faster.
Currently, Dr. Oshidar maintains practice at AB & NC in Lumberton, NJ where the setting is very personal so that patients receive undivided attention during their treatments. His NYC practice at 3262 Westchester Avenue, Bronx 10461 is affiliated with Medical Clinics of NYC in which there is a multi-disciplinary approach to patient care with Chiropractors, Neurologists, Physical Therapists, and Anesthesiologists working synergistically for an optimal mix of medical and physical management. Here you will find a more “community” healing atmosphere where patients are encouraged to voice their opinions and really enjoy their time in the clinic.
Finally, as a graduate from the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1994, Dr. Oshidar was a member of Sigma Alpha Mu national fraternity and got credit towards his major in biology by partaking in marine biology research under Dr. Jeffrey Levinton, some of which was utilized in a a college text.

Ronald Grisanti D.C., D.A.B.C.O., DACBN, MS, CFMPXylitol and Erythritol are commonly used by those wanting to lose weight or who are diabetic. Many people use artificial, low-calorie sweeteners to reduce their sugar intake. It's found in chewing gum, toothpaste, sugar-free candy, baked goods, and more. According to a June 2024 study, high levels of xylitol and erythritol, sugar alcohols and low-calorie sweeteners used in many foods and products, has been associated with an increased risk of a major cardiovascular event, like a heart attack or stroke and death. The researchers in this study analyzed how xylitol impacts heart health in over 3,000 patients in the U.S. and Europe. The team of researchers, led by Dr. Stanley Hazen at the Cleveland Clinic and published in European Heart Journal on June 6, 2024 showed that having the highest blood levels of xylitol is linked with a 57% increased risk of a major cardiovascular event compared with lower levels. The Reason Why Xylitol and Erythritol May Pose a Cardiovascular Risk? Blood components called platelets help blood to clot. The researchers found that both erythritol and xylitol made platelets more sensitive to blood clotting signals. . Additionally, taking a single 30-gram dose of xylitol increases blood levels 1000-fold within 30 minutes – this increase can stimulate blood clotting, which is concerning for people with existing heart disease. These results suggest that consuming erythritol and xylitol can increase blood clot formation. This, in turn, could increase the risk of heart attack or stroke. What Products Commonly Include Erythritol and Xylitol? Chewing gum Candy Ice Cream Breath mints Some Dietary supplements Mouthwash Toothpaste Sugar-Free Desserts Liquid compounded medications Commercially produced: Baked goods, beverages, candies, chewing gums, chocolates, tabletop sweetener packets, ice cream, puddings, jams and jellies, fruit preparations, biscuits, and sauces Dr. Grisanti's Comments For now, I recommend being cautious using products with xylitol and erythritol in it, – particularly those with cardiovascular risk factors. Although some people will say the research may be flawed, I have to wonder if the people against this new study have an agenda that places the public at risk. All in all, I say why take the risk. I prefer to err on the side of caution and simply stop consuming food items that have erythritol and xylitol in it. Using xylitol and erythritol in the small amounts typically found in chewing gum, toothpastes, and mouth rinses seems to be safe. But using it in very high doses and long-term isn't a good idea. It does not mean throw out your toothpaste if it has xylitol in it, but we should be aware that consumption of a product containing high levels could increase the risk of blood clot-related events. If you're looking for a sweet treat, the only sweeteners I stand behind are organic, 100 percent stevia or monk fruit extracts. Remember simply read the labels of the items you eat or drink if you want to know if xylitol and erythritol has been added. --------- ATTENTION DOCTORS, ALL HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONERS, PATIENTS and POTENTIAL NEW PATIENTS If you found this article of value may I ask if you can tell your friends and colleagues about Clinical Rounds.

At the very least, you'll want to keep this to a minimum. Inflammation is often visible—think red skin or a swollen knee. However, inflammation can also occur on the inside, and it's not always so easy to detect. "Inflammation is a physiological process involved in the defense of our body and the repair of tissues," says Jenna Stangland, RD , a Momentous advisor. Stangland explains that inflammation can be triggered by infections, trauma, toxins or allergic reactions. Sometimes, it becomes chronic in the muscles and tissues. Unfortunately, Stangland says chronic inflammation carries risks. "Chronic inflammation can end up stimulating the development of cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune disease, neurological disease or cancer," Stangland says. "This type of inflammation can last several months as a result of inability to combat and reduce it." Diet isn't a cure-all for chronic inflammation or the diseases it can trigger. However, it's an important tool. "Diet plays a significant role in inflammation, as certain foods can either promote or reduce inflammation in the body," says Michelle Routhenstein, MS, RD, CDCES, CDN , a preventive cardiology dietitian at EntirelyNourished.com . One food in particular is worth avoiding. RDs shared the food to limit if you have chronic inflammation.
