If you are one who has been helped by our extensive efforts
to let health
sufferers know about the importance of getting more and more understanding
concerning how disease starts (at the cellular level), and that in order to get
the help you need, you need to get back to the cellular level.
You need to know what to do and what to use to
REJUVENATE EVERY CELL IN YOUR BODY.
With that statement, you already know a lot. However, as we generate
new inquiries
and orders for supplements and products that do give some help, we feel that
we must continue to research and present more current information for
you to understand and possibly take appropriate action.
With that in mind, we follow with:
CELLULAR LEVEL "WORDS N PHRASES"
CELLULAR LEVEL INFORMATION --- INCLUDING NUTRITION
Basic knowledge, we are "cellular" beings. We are made up of trillions of special
cells
Each cell is powered by a series of chemical reactions called the Krebs
Cycle*,
which supplies the energy that every cell needs to carry out its activities.
Whether you look at a liver cell, a brain cell or a muscle cell, you discover the same
complex cascade of chemical reactions occurring.
In order to generate energy through the Krebs Cycle, your cells require various nutrients,
including amino acids, minerals and trace elements.
The Impact of Poor Nutrition
Most of us understand that many people eat a very poor diet of "fast foods" or
prepackaged convenience meals that are nutrient-deficient.
Result = Their cells don't receive the nutrition they need and a person becomes sluggish.
This can have a number of unfortunate consequences.
For example, if your liver cells lack the nutrients they need, you may not process
toxins efficiently and you will feel fatigued. If your nerve cells are undernourished,
they may fire more slowly and you will not react as fast to stimuli such as a light
turning red or a car stopping in front of you. If your muscle cells lack the nutrition
they need, you may find your exercise stamina is lacking.
We are only As Healthy As Our Cells ?
The human body is made up of trillions of cells (let's call them "building blocks", each
of which is fully able to perform all the processes that define life -- respiration, energy
production, movement, digestion, elimination, reproduction, and more.
As the foundation of health is only as strong as its building blocks,
we are only as healthy (or unhealthy) as our cells.
Membranes Control What Gets In And Out Of The Cells.
They act like vigilant gatekeepers.
Cells are like miniature bodies in that they need to take in nutrients and eliminate wastes
in order to stay healthy. Each cell is surrounded by a membrane which acts as a vigilant
gatekeeper: Only those nutrients needed by the cell at a given moment are allowed
to enter,and only waste material and metabolic products are allowed to leave.
Maintaining this selective, discretionary power is crucial to cellular health and vitality.
Cells that cannot properly assimilate nutrients or eliminate wastes could be respectively
described as "starved" or "constipated"! When such conditions exist, cells may become
toxic and "sluggish" instead of healthy and vital.
Sluggish cells are unable to efficiently produce energy for life or perform their other
specialized jobs. Lipids, sterols, amino acids, and other nutrients can help your cells
maintain the discretionary power so important to their health. |
And if your cells "feel better," so will you!
We've all heard and seen this: "Good food is the best medicine".
Yet it can be difficult to consume foods that provide the nutrient density and
nutrient diversity we need each day for optimal health and vitality.
Either we make poor food choices, or we try to pick healthful foods, but nutrient losses
during food harvest, processing, transportation, and preparation degrade
its value and undermine our best efforts.
Resulting nutritional "gaps" can impact health, both short-term and long-term.
Health and disease are not black-and-white states.
The usual situation is not that one day you are perfectly healthy, and the next day you die.
Over the course of several decades, our bodies can go from a state of
vibrant health to tiredness to marginal nutritional deficiency,
to disease and subsequent death.
Know that: Many Factors Determine Your Nutrient Needs
No two people are alike in their nutritional needs.
Members of the same family, eating the same meals, will derive different benefits from
the foods served. Our personal tastes dominate much of what we consume.
While one person refuses to eat green vegetables, another will prefer foods heavy in fat,
and yet another may consume only a very small amount of protein.
Our individual metabolism also determines the benefits we derive from food.
Age, sex, physical condition, and activity levels directly affect the body's need
for nutrients and its ability to use them.
Many scientists believe that these differences may play a large part in explaining why
some people complain of feeling tired and sluggish while others remain vital and active.
Certain aspects of your lifestyle can increase nutrient demands. For instance, physically
active people may need more antioxidants than sedentary individuals.
So, too, might people who are exposed to pollution on a daily basis, who consume foods
laden with fat or chemical additives, or who are under mental stress.
Alcohol, medication, food additives, and water contaminants can also increase
the need for certain nutrients.
Smokers may benefit from more vitamin C, and coffee drinkers may want to take more
B-vitamins. Dieters, on the other hand, may need more vitamin E, as avoiding fat means
missing out on some of the richest sources of this vitamin.
And if they eat products made |with "fake fats" such as olestra, they may need to
supplement with vitamins A, D, E, and K, and carotenoids, as artificial fats may
hinder the body's utilization of these lipid-soluble nutrients.
Now, here are: Two Goals Of Nutritional Supplementation
Supplementation can go a long way towards filling nutritional gaps created
by suboptimal diets and impacting your quality of life.
Nutritional supplementation has two goals:
Providing nutrients in amounts sufficient to prevent or correct symptoms.
Providing nutrients in amounts necessary for supporting optimal health.
In other words, supplementation can give your body what it needs to survive and thrive!
So there no misunderstanding, we are not proposing "vegetarianism";
just that you start to really pay attention to your nourishment = which
means that if you understood the content above, you should be
paying more attention to your health.
Our intent is to let YOU know about the importance
of the cells in YOUR BODY
and why you must do whatever it takes to understand about the Cellular Level
and increase your ability to find those researched products
and supplements that "do what they claim they will do".
THEY MUST "WORK" = GIVE RESULTS !
And that is what MBA IS ALL ABOUT.

search for it.
