Back to Basics

It’s true that we should be getting essential nutrients from food.

Everyone should strive to have a diet with nutrient dense foods along the following lines:

1. Fruits & Vegetables – 50%
2. Proteins & Fats (eggs, fish, meats, etc) – 35%
3. Processed carbohydrates (rice, bread, noodles, etc) – 15%

Relying solely on food may keep you from developing vitamin deficiencies, but a dietary approach alone is not going to come close to optimizing your health.

Besides regular exercise and having quality sleep, we must also build up a systematic and coherent supplement program to attain optimal health.

The very first and most important supplement one should take is an OPTIMALLY DOSED daily multivitamin & mineral supplement, instead of one that offers only RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) doses, which is the dose required to prevent vitamin-deficiency diseases.

Taking vitamins and minerals at OPTIMAL DOSES goes way beyond protection against deficiencies. It enters the world of optimizing energy levels, hormone balance, cardiovascular wellness, bone strength, digestive ease, visual acuity, cognitive agility, emotional stability and joint integrity.

The second foundational supplement one should take is a high quality fish oil providing essential Omega-3 fatty acid.

An abundance of scientific research substantiates the wide-ranging health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. Some of these benefits include:

a.            Decrease risk of heart disease

b.            Support mental health and well-being

c.             Promote cognitive agility

d.            Lower bodily inflammation
