Right up into the early 1900's, just about all diseases were
infectious in nature, for example; diphtheria, typhoid, smallpox,
pneumonia, black plague, tuberculosis, etc. With our progression as a
civilization the way our food and farming was processed changed and new
diseases began to manifest, for example; cancer, heart disease,
diabetes, obesity, etc. The more modern our civilization has become, the
more new diseases have manifested. Today, the following diseases are
regularly diagnosed such as, arthritis, IBS, bi-polar, fibromyalgia,
schizophrenia, hyperactivity, ADHD, allergies, depression, etc. Our food
processing has removed vitamins, fiber and other essential nutrients
from the foods we eat.
Nutrition is important to a healthy life. Good nutrition provides antioxidants, micronutrients and the fuel our body needs for optimal health performance. It is recommended that adults should eat 7-13 servings of fruits and vegetables per day depending on their age, gender and physical activity. These Whole Foods support the immune system, reduce oxidative stress, and help protect our DNA and impact key indicators of cardiovascular wellness. From my studies, observations and my own research, I have learned that our bodies need Nutrition that must include Essential Nutrients! Essential Nutrients are absolutely essential to live. Our bodies cannot produce them so we must get them from food or supplement. If we don't get enough Essential Nutrients our bodies will suffer a deficiency disorder and if the body get's none, serious disease will likely manifest.
Essential Nutrients include vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants, amino acids and fatty acids (Omega 6 & Omega 3) The recommended fruits and vegetables does not cover Essential Fatty Acids, one of the Essential Nutrients. A deficiency of EFA's can result in depression, a serotonin & dopamine blood barrier in the brain and blood flow. If a person does not get enough EFA's the myelin sheath protection millions of neurons in the brain may not be adequate. Research has shown ADD & dyslexia subjects have EFA deficiencies, as well as patients with depression. Omega 3 Fatty Acids keep cell membranes fluid and flexible which is necessary for healthy cell function and the regulators that control the body's well being. Our illnesses today are not infectious....they are lifestyle and nutrition issues which we can and must change.
A pharmaceutical grade, 1000 mg Omega 3 fish oil reduces risk of sudden death by heart related causes by 45%. Women reduce their coronary heart disease by more than 1/3 and the risk of fatal heart attack by 1/2. Men without heart disease were 81% less likely to experience sudden death due to irregular heart beat when their blood levels of Omega 2 fatty acids were high, regardless of their age or smoking habits. Eating a diet with 5 or more servings of cold water fish per week would provide the recommended Omega 3 fatty acid requirement. Omega 3 also benefits the structural system and skin. Through a process in the body, Omega 3 fatty acids can reduce inflammation, inhibit platelate aggregation, control cellular proliferation, vasodilators and improve immune function. If you are unable to get these nutritional recommendations in your diet, see your practitioner for pharmaceutical grade Whole Food and Omega 3 supplementation.
