Eating is a habit. Eating well is a lifestyle.
Most of the cells in our body replace themselves at least once a year. What we eat and drink today becomes raw materials for the body we will have this time next year. Think about that. It has been proven that you can improve your health through diet.
We can help you explore and establish the links between what you put into your mouth and your body weight, between what you put into your mouth and how it affects the condition of your health, energy levels and general sense of well being. Then you will have the necessary information for making the right decisions regarding your eating habits. We can also help you wade through the ocean of vitamins, supplements and nutritional aids available these days to determine which ones are really essential for your lifestyle.
“Perhaps you are the kind of person who spends a good two minutes night and morning popping pills? Somewhere we expect our multi-vitamins and minerals to work on preventing disease. The truth is that is very seldom the case. Generally speaking, either the supplement is not absorbed, or it works to put the delicate balance of all the inner systems completely out of whack.
The average apple has only 5 or 6 mg of vitamin C in it. It also has 10,000+ other plant nutrients that work in synergy with the vitamin C. The only reason people survive eating high amounts of isolated vitamins is because the cells do not absorb them. They are not bio-available. They are flushed from the body as expensive urine.
Absorbing that news, we are faced with the question: "What supplements do I then take?' Vibrant health demands qualitative, not quantitative nutrition. There is plenty of evidence about real fruits and veggies being the guardians of our health.
The Longevity Diet starts with 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. We build from there. If you feel to supplement your diet, and this is not a bad idea, given our sometime crazy lifestyles, look for whole-food bio-available supplementation. It doesn't have to be complicated, but it does have to work.
So before you spend your hard earned money on that next bottle of isolated vitamin or mineral, ask yourself these questions: Is it a whole food supplement? Will my body absorb it? If the company who makes it has integrity, it will be able to answer these questions and supply supportive evidence of its claims.”
