Is your body being starved of vital nutrients?
Over a hundred years ago the nutritional quality of the soil was far greater than it is today. Modern farming methods over the years have gradually seen a decline in the soil's nutrients.
A healthy diet containing at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day is very important to maintain optimal health, but due to a decrease in levels of nutrients we aren't getting the same benefit as 100 years ago.
Crops are being grown in soils that have less goodness left in them. Also many fruits and vegetables that are imported from other countries are picked before the're ripe and then flown long distances before being stacked on supermarket shelves.
As a result many vitamins and minerals are lost before we even get them home. Many people tend to do a weekly shop due to busy lifestyles instead of buying fresh produce each day. Vegetables and fruits are often stored in fridges and vegetable racks at home for days before being cooked and eaten. This means even more nutrients are lost.
A study has found that spinach contains 60% less iron than 50 years ago,and runner beans that used to contain large amounts of sodium hardly have a trace of it today.
Chemicals are also added to our food. Fertilizers and pesticides are used in farming, and fruit is often sprayed with chemicals to help ripening after they have been picked.
If you are a meat eater most meat now contains anti-biotics and growth hormones.
At the turn of the last century in about 1900 the incidence of cancer was about 1 in 80 now it's 1 in 3
Scientists have shown that many diseases including cancer, diabetes and arthritis have a basis in nutrient deficiency and bio-chemical imbalances.
Busy, demanding lifestyles give little
time for preparing a home cooked meal each day. As a result many families opt for quick processed meals that can be ready in minutes.These may be greatly lacking in vital nutrients and often contain high levels of salt and preservatives.
It's not surprising that so many diseases are on the increase.
Taking nutritional supplements is a good way to ensure that you are getting vitamins and minerals.
There are so many different supplements on the market that it can be very daunting to know what you need.to take.
For maximum benefit you need a complete range of over 60 major and trace minerals.
Mineral supplements need to be in the right formulation to be effective.However many consist of inorganic metallic minerals or basically ground up rock. These are only 8%-12% biologically available to the body. This means that very little of the minerals are absorbed into the system.
Collated minerals are more effective than metallic minerals.These have an amino acid coating and greatly increase the absorption rate to about 40%
For maximum absorption the minerals must also be in solution in an ionised liquid form.
Getting the right nutrition into the body can make so much difference to energy levels and wellbeing. The immune system becomes stronger and you are more able to fight off minor infections such as colds.Skin and hair are also improved.
