Nutrition

 

Americans suffer from Nutrition-related diseases:

  1. More than 1 and 2 Americans are overweight, costing 100 billion dollars in health related health care costs.
  2. Despite that more than 50% of Americans are nutritional deficient, especially those over the age of 55.
  3. Changing your diet can increase your life span and slow down the aging process.

Diet vs. Nutrition:

Diet is what one eats and drinks and nutrition is what happens inside the body as a result of what ones eats and drinks.

Good nutrition happens when we provide ourselves with all the nutrients we need in adequate amounts and in a form the body can absorbs and utilize. Much more of what we need to achieve in good nutrition is acquired by food we eat, but increasingly nutritional supplements are needed to keep us healthy in the midst of stresses and circumstances in our lives, including environmental pollution, excessive food refinement, loss of sleep, exhaustion, emotional strain, dieting, and illness.

The Role Nutrition Plays in Disease:

Nutritional deficiencies are one of the basic reasons for aging and disease. The Surgeon General’s Nutrition and Health Report of 1998 stated that 68% of all deaths (2-3 million) are nutrition related. Embracing good dietary and supplemental nutrition increases our chances in preventing or postponing many of the diseases that negatively impact our quality of life, such as heart disease, some cancers, diabetes, and others. Good nutrition can provide the foundation for successful treatment.
