Good Health living - the important role of supplements and vitamins

USDA Food PyramidImage via Wikipedia

More and more people are now going back to basics—in terms of food and health practices—because they want to achieve prime health and fitness. Experts say that because of the busy courses of people’s lives, many of them tend to forget some of the vital fragments in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which is diet and nutrition.

Although the terms “diet” and “nutrition” have different definitions, they are greatly connected to each other. When defined, “diet” refers to the food and liquid intake of a person while “nutrition” pertains to the science of dealing with food and nourishment. Sometimes, many people get confused with the meanings of the two because they automatically assume that less—through diet—will not affect their health’s overall condition.

Experts say that more than the issues of food and liquid intake and the science of food and nourishment, diet and nutrition can revolve around nutritional information on various dietary supplements and the benefits vitamins and minerals to a person’s body. By making yourself familiar with latest diet and nutrition topics, trends, and tips can lead you to the renewal of your health and well being commitment inside your home.

Relieve Your Arthritis Pain with a Better Diet

People who suffer from arthritis are always looking for ways to relieve their pain. One way to ease or even prevent it is through an arthritis diet. There are some arthritis diets that some people will swear by, but have never been proven to make a difference. There are some diets that make a definite difference according to health experts.

First we’ll take a look at some arthritis diets where there’s little or no evidence that they actually make a difference. One of the most common arthritis diets is to eliminate potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and most peppers. While the diet won’t do any harm, it hasn’t been proven to affect arthritis at all. Another arthritis diet seeks to reduce the acids in one’s body eliminating sugar, coffee, red meat, most grains, nuts, and citrus fruits.

It’s intended to be followed for just one month. People may feel better because they lose weight which reduces the stress on their joints, but again there is no evidence to support this. It also excludes many sources of vitamin C which is essential in fighting arthritis. Drinking green tea has been shown to reduce the effects of rheumatoid arthritis in mice, but there are no conclusive results on human studies yet. Shark cartilage is supposed to relieve arthritis. Animal and lab studies show promise, but there are no human studies to support this yet.

Not let’s take a look at some arthritis diets that have been shown to work. Switching fats can reduce inflammation. Eating fats found in red meat and poultry have actually been shown to increase inflammation. Switching to cold water fish can help reduce the inflammation. Using corn, safflower, and sunflower oils also helps.

Another arthritis diet is the ASU (avocado-soybean unsaponifiable). It has been shown to relieve osteoarthritis, stimulate cartilage repair, and lessen a patient’s need to NSAIDs to control pain. Ginger has been shown to ease pain and inflammation as well as protect the stomach from gastrointestinal effects from taking NSAIDs. Glucosamine is a supplement that relieves pain in some patients with osteoarthritis.

It helps the body rebuild cartilage, but can take up to two months to see the effects. If you are allergic to shellfish, check with your doctor before taking this as it is derived from crab, lobster, or shrimp shells. Before taking any supplements talk with your doctor as some can interfere with or worsen side effects from your medications.

Of course the best arthritis diet is a good old-fashioned well balanced diet. Eat 5 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables, and go easy on fats and cholesterol. A heart healthy diet is especially important to patients with rheumatoid arthritis as studies have shown a link between this disease and heart failure.

Vitamin C is good for repairing body tissue. Vitamin D helps absorb calcium, build bone mass, and prevents bone loss. Calcium helps strengthen your bones. If you are on medication, ask your doctor if he/she recommends taking vitamins.

Some medications can create vitamin or mineral deficiencies. When choosing your arthritis diet, be sure to talk with your physician as different types of arthritis have different needs.

To Your Good Health,

Did You Know YOUR ANCESTORS diet was much BETTER than Yours

The modern diet is a far cry from the foods that humans have consumed for two million years. Before humans took up agriculture 10,000 years ago, they were primarily hunter gatherers, with dietary needs met primarily by fruits, vegetables, roots, nuts, seeds, legumes, fish, and wild game.

Scientists believe our ancestors ate about three times the amount of fruits and vegetables we do, generally consumed within hours of being gathered, usually raw, with little or no processing. It is likely, therefore, that our ancestors had intakes of vitamins and minerals that exceeded the current RDAs (1.5 to 5 times higher), although they were by no means megadoses.

They also ate five times more fiber than we do. In many respects, the ancestral diet resembles the American Heart Association’s dietary recommendations, the traditional
Mediterranean and East Asian diets, and semivegetarian eating practices.

Our ancestors did not live long, but it was infection and accidents—not degenerative disease—that killed them. Now,that goes to show that just maybe our Doctors are not telling us what,s best for us.

SUPPLEMENTS: “NUTRITIONAL INSURANCE” WHEN THE DIET IS POOR
Nutrient density and nutrient diversity are two sides of the same coin. Research indicates that the reality of the daily diet is that you cannot get all the nutrients you need for optimal health and vitality from foods alone.

The next step will likely be government recommendations to consume both healthy foods and supplements. Don’t wait for new government recommendations to take charge of your health today!

Begin making better food choices. And to be certain the inevitable nutrient “gaps” won’t threaten you, make Nutritional Supplements a part of your daily diet.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids Reverse Cartilage Damage

Omega-3 fatty acids have long been associated with promoting joint health, and a recent study from Cardiff University in Wales confirmed that omega-3s can slow and even reverse the destruction of joint cartilage.

Cartilage is connective tissue that cushions bones and prevents them from grinding against one other, especially in the joints. Omega-3 fatty acids work to protect cartilage by switching off the aggrecan- and collagen-degrading enzymes that break down cartilage. This, in turn, slows down the cartilage destruction process that occurs with arthritis, plus reduces inflammation, thus lessening pain.

One of the most important conclusions from this study is that supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids in early adulthood can prevent the onset of osteoarthritis, and also reduce the harmful symptoms associated with the disease. Fish are by far the richest source of omega-3 fatty acids.

However, if you’re not getting two to three servings of fatty fish per week, then you’re not getting enough of this important nutrient. Scientists recommend an optimal omega-3 intake of 800 to 1,100 mg of omega-3 fatty acids per day, including 300-400 mg of DHA and EPA. The average daily consumption in the U.S. is 50 mg EPA and 80 mg DHA a far cry from the recommended intake. Therefore, supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids is important to your health…

Different omega-3 fatty acids give different heart-health benefits

GNLD offers two excellent omega-3 products: Salmon Oil and Omega III Concentrate. GNLD’s Salmon Oil contains all the omega-3 benefits, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which support joint health and healthy cardiovascular functions.

Omega-3 fatty acids also support important functions of body tissues and organs, notably the heart, blood vessels, brain, nerves, eyes, skin, and joints. Omega III Concentrate also contains both EPA and DHA in balanced quantities, with the added benefits of GNLD’s special lipotropic blend, which delivers lecithin, choline, inositol and methionine to the body. Choline and inositol help keep lipids emulsified in the bloodstream. This, in turn, can reduce chances of heart disease.

An additional plus to each product: all oils are derived from healthy, fresh fish from pristine waters. Only body oils are used, which reduces exposure to substances which may collect in the organs, like herbicides, pesticides, heavy metals, and vitamins A and D. GNLD’s Salmon Oil and Omega III Concentrate are your best choices for omega-3 fatty acid supplementation, hands down!
