How to Make You Look 10 Years Younger! Would you like to live a long and healthy life? If it's going to be, it's all up to you! That sounds simple, but it's a fact! Health is a matter of CHOICE. If we choose to make good nutrition - including supplementation - and an active lifestyle a daily habit, we could add 5 to 15 healthy years to our lives. Without science and technology, our lifespan would not have been increased as much as we experience it today. However, they were not be able to secure for us our long-term health. As Dr. Myron Wentz, founder of USANA Health Sciences likes to phrase it: "We are living too short and dying too long." Healthy living means: keeping a balanced, healthy diet, avoiding smoking, excessive use of alcohol and toxic chemicals,taking regular exercise and supplementing our diet with high quality nutritional supplements. However, the nutrients have to be in a form that the cells of our body can except them and the cells have to be in optimum condition to be able to absorb the nutrients, this is called bio-availability. These are the keys to successful nutrition and two often overlooked facts. Maintaining your health is much easier than trying to regain it. When you are struggling with your health, you can empower your body to fight and even reverse chronic diseases. By providing the necessary nutrients at optimal levels, your LDL cholesterol is more resistant to oxidation, your eyes have greater antioxidant protection from sunlight and you provide optimal protection for your lungs. You increase your immune system and antioxidant defence system. You decrease the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, cancer, arthritis, diabetes, Alzheimer's, Parkinson disease and more. People who are suffering from a chronic degenerative disease are under greater oxidative stress than normal.In this case, optimizers are important to use in order to support any existing nutritional program. It's been scientifically proven that there are substantial health benefits in taking nutritional supplements. The benefits of nutritional supplements are scientifically verified over the past two years. Hundreds of scientific studies have proved that nutritional supplements can significantly reduce the risk of degenerative diseases. The American Medical Association (AMA) now encourages all adults to supplement daily with a multiple vitamin. Based on a landmark review of 38 years of scientific evidence by Harvard researchers, Dr Robert Fletcher and Dr Kathleen Fairfield, the conservative Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) has rewritten its policy guidelines regarding the use of vitamin supplements. In a striking departure from its previous anti-vitamin rhetoric, JAMA (June19,2002) now recommends that, given our nutrient-poor modern diet, supplementation each day with a multiple vitamin is a prudent preventive measure against chronic disease. The researchers point out that more than 80% of the American population does not consume anywhere near the five to eight servings of fruits and vegetables required each day for optimal health. Dr Robert Fletcher, co-author of the groundbreaking JAMA studies, states: All of us grew up believing that if we ate a reasonable diet, that would take care of our vitamin needs. But the new evidence, much of it in the last couple of years, is that vitamins also prevent the usual diseases we deal with every day - heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and birth defects. Most people simply accept the onset of arthritis, heart disease and diabetes as inevitable results of the aging process -- the truth is, these conditions are largely preventable. Apart from the future benefits, eating well and exercising regularly also enable us to enjoy life so much more right now! Adrian Joele became interested in nutrition and weight management while he was an associate with a nutritional supplement company. Since 2008 he wrote several articles about nutrition and weight loss. He has been involved in nutrition and weight management for over 8 years and he likes to share his knowledge with anyone who could benefit from it. He enjoys helping other people solve their problems. It is still a proven fact that USANA Health Sciences can provide you with high quality Nutritional Supplements.
