Which is better for kids? Carrying a BackPack vs. Pulling Them on Trolleys (rolling backpacks)?
More and more school children are recommended to not carry a backpack and instead pulling them on trolleys in a hope to avoid long term spinal problems.
Here’s a 2010 study in Germany which included thirty-four school children between 6 and 8 years of age comparing the children’s posture while carrying backpacks vs. while pulling them on trolleys.
The results? While both groups had asymmetric postures when carrying a backpack or when pulling a trolley, the trolley group, however, had extra stress due to spinal rotation.
The results suggest that carrying a backpack may be better than pulling a trolley when the weight is within recommended limits.
Comparison of the Posture of School Children
FROM: Clinical Chiropractic 2010 (Dec); 13 (4): 253–260
Johanna Schmidt, Sharon Docherty
It’s well understood that heavy backpacks are taking a heavy toll (excuse the pun!) on adolescent spines. A recent standing magnetic resonance imaging study by the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of California, at San Diego revealed that: “Increasing backpack loads significantly compressed lumbar disc heights measured in the midline sagittal plane” and that: “student subjects reported significant increases in back pain, associated with increasing backpack loads from 4, to 8, and finally to 12 kgs of carried weight”.
This most recent novel study (see below) was performed with German primary school children. [2] Researchers wanted to determine whether giving the children rolling luggage, to carry their school books, might reduce spinal stress. As it turns out, what might work well for Mom at the airport does not work so well for Junior, lugging his books across uneven sidewalks, all the way to school. The authors had to conclude that: “This suggests that school children should use backpacks rather than trolleys when the weight is within recommended limits”.
The Abstract:
Objective To investigate whether there is a difference in the posture of school children walking with a backpack versus pulling a trolley.
Design Comparative, controlled, pilot trial.
Setting “Grundschule Fallersleben” – primary school in Germany.
Subjects Thirty-four school children between 6 and 8 years of age.
Methods Initially, neutral posture was measured in a standing position. All children were then asked to walk a predetermined route without intervention for approximately 7 min. This was followed by walking the same route with either a backpack (n = 19) or trolley (n = 15). Deviations from neutral of the thoracic and lumbar spine (flexion, extension, lateral flexion and rotation) from the final 30 s of the imaging sequences were taken and analysed.
Results Compared to unburdened walking, walking with a backpack led to a statistically significant (p = 0.05) increase in thoracic extension (3.91°, 95% CI = 3.35–4.46) and right lumbar lateral flexion (2.29°, 95% CI = -3.41 to -1.18), and a statistically significant decrease of lumbar flexion (2.2°, 95% CI = 0.34–4.06). In contrast, walking with a trolley increased extension (1.4°, 95% CI = 0.72–2.08), right lateral flexion (1.24°, 95% CI = -1.91 to -0.57) and right rotation (3.09°, 95% CI = -3.85 to -2.32) of the thoracic spine, and led to a statistically significant increase in left rotation (3.57°, 95% CI = 2.58–4.55) of the lumbar spine. Comparing the backpack and trolley groups showed a statistically significant (p = 0.05) increase in thoracic extension and right lumbar lateral flexion in the backpack group. Posture during trolley pulling was characterized by a statistically significant (p = 0.05) increase in right thoracic and left lumbar rotation.
Conclusion Participants adopted asymmetric postures during walking with a backpack and pulling a trolley. However, the trolley group was characterised by spinal rotation which possibly adds an extra source of stress. This suggests that school children should use backpacks rather than trolleys when the weight is within recommended limits.

How Long DO YOU Plan to Live?
One of the fastest growing segments of the population today is centenarians, or 100-year old people. In 1980, there were approximately 17,000 people over the age of 100. Today there are approximately 80,000 people who have reached this milestone. The US Census Bureau estimates that by the time the baby boom generation reaches this landmark age, there will be more than 4.2 million centenarians in the US. This trend holds true for other industrialized nations including Australia, Canada, and those in Europe. Many of us have noticed this trend first hand by having to cope with the challenges of our aging parents.
Unfortunately, many elderly people are unprepared for their extended life. When today’s centenarians were born in 1905, the life expectancy for a newborn was approximately 50 years. Yet many have outlived their life expectancy by half a century. If these people knew they were going to live this long, do you think many of them would have made better health choices along the way?
We are getting the advanced notice that our parents and grandparents never received. What will you do with this information? Hopefully you will choose to make your health a priority now instead of waiting until it deteriorates to choose a healthy lifestyle. The truth is that we cannot control how long we are going to live. We can, however, control our health choices. As people age, quality of life choices take on a higher priority. Values turn more toward the physical and physiological standard of living rather than the material standard of living.
After all, what good is a nice car if your back hurts too much to sit in the seat and enjoy it? or if you have a pretty smile but you can’t enjoy your food because your teeth hurt? Who cares what your carpet looks like if you don’t have the energy to entertain? Does it matter how much jewelry you have if you are too sick to go out on the town?
Many people spend the first 50 years of their lives ignoring their health while they accumulate wealth, only to spend the next 50 years losing their wealth to buy back their health. Knowing that your longevity potential is 100 years gives you an opportunity to place your health at the top of your value scale. Every minute of every day we are faced with choices that contribute to our quality of life both now and in the future.
We must choose between eating junk food and healthy food, brushing and flossing your teeth or being lazy, being a couch potato and exercising, stressing out or looking at the bright side, getting regular dental checkups and chiropractic adjustments or living with the consequences of poor spinal and oral health.
Starting today, make health choices that ensure that each day will be your best, and encourage your family to do the same.
After all, 100 years of healthy living is achieved one day at a time! We are excited to be a part of that team for you and your family.
Call TODAY to schedule an appointment for a DENTAL EXAM and a CHIROPRACTIC HEALTH EXAM so that you can begin living your best life every day of your life!

WHO panel warns that cell phone use may cause cancer
Researchers are not all convinced yet but we should take preventive measures to reduce our chances of being another statistic because it will take years before they can conclude on the possible link. Since we can’t just all stop using mobile phones…..our suggestion is to keep mobile phones away from your body as much as possible….such as when you are sleeping etc. and use hands-free devices whenever possible. Also, children may be more vulnerable to radiation so we suggest to limit their contact to mobile phones.
Saturday, June 04, 2011 by: Jonathan Benson, staff writer
(NaturalNews) Scientists from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a group affiliated with the World Health Organization (WHO), say that mobile phones are a “possible” carcinogen that may be a cause of cancer. The findings, which support previous research on the subject, add to the growing body of evidence which suggests that the electromagnetic radiation emitted from mobile phones causes serious health problems.
“A positive association has been observed between exposure to the agent and cancer for which a causal interpretation is considered … to be credible,” states the IARC. However, in the same train of thought, the agency claims that evidence is “limited” to suggest that mobile phone usage is linked to glioma or acoustic neuroma, two types of brain cancer.
In 2009, IARC published a study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology that linked mobile phone usage to an 18 percent increase in brain tumor risk. And because it was observed that such tumors tended to form on the sides of brains where mobile phones were primarily used, the connection between the two is even more striking (http://www.naturalnews.com/027448_c…).
Another report issued in 2010 by the International Electromagnetic Field Cooperative (IEFC) also found a link between mobile phone usage and increased rates of brain tumors. Included in this report is a Swedish study that found a 420 percent increase in brain cancer rates among children who began using mobile and cordless phones as teenagers, as opposed to those that did not (http://www.naturalnews.com/028078_c…).
With all of this research now available and the latest announcement from IARC, one would think more people would be concerned about the risks involved with the excessive use of mobile phones and looking for less-risky alternatives or using hands-free devices at the very least. But because the period between when a cancer patient is exposed to this radiation and when he or she develops tumors typically spans several decades, some experts claim that the link between the two is inconclusive and are content to tell the public there is really little to worry about.
