Do I need to take nutritional supplements?


 

About 99.9 percent of the population should take supplements because people don't eat completely organic diets, which leads to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Even if they did follow an all-organic diet, there would still be a possibility of deficiency because the soil used for growing the food most people eat is often depleted of some nutrients. Other factors that contribute to a need for supplementation include people frequently eating out, buying non-organic food, stress from the family or job, and living in a city, which all add to a toxic environment and increase deficiencies.

How do I know which supplements to take?


Blood tests offer clues to someone's deficiencies and nearly everyone is deficient in at least one area. Even without knowing the results of a blood test, you can still benefit from taking multi-vitamins, multi-minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acid supplements. People need all four of these as a basic foundation regardless of individual deficiencies. Most people should also supplement calcium and magnesium for the bones because it is hard to get enough of them daily.

What are good and bad choices for drinks?


You should try to drink eight, 12-ounce glasses of water a day. It's okay to add a little fresh squeezed fruit for flavor, like lemon. Other healthy options are herbal tea, fresh squeezed fruit or vegetable juice, organic cow's milk, soymilk, and rice milk. These choices should be in addition to the recommended water intake. The primary concern with juice and milk is getting too many calories, sugars, or carbohydrates. These drinks may need diluting to keep them at healthy levels. Alcohol would be the worst choice, followed by regular and decaffeinated coffees, diet soda, regular soda, black tea, and non-organic whole milk. These drinks contain toxic chemicals that cause stress on the liver and deplete vitamins and minerals in the body that are used for detoxification. They also cause the blood to become acidic, which causes other health problems like liver disease.

Are there such things as good fats and bad fats?


Fat intake should come mostly from raw fats such as raw vegetables, like avocado, and raw seed fats, like olive oil or sesame oil. Fats in their purest state are most efficient in cell repair and hormone production. Fats are very heat sensitive. Whenever fats are heated to a high temperature they become free radicals, which are toxic and harmful to the liver and blood. If you have to cook a fat, do so at the lowest temperature possible. Olive oil is considered the most stable for cooking. If the oil turns brown or smokes, then it has been damaged and is now loaded with free radicals that are harmful to the liver and blood. This is why using low temperatures is so important.

What are good and bad carbohydrate choices?


Complex carbohydrates including fruits, vegetables, and brown or wild rice are good choices. Complex carbs provide energy because they contain nutrients and fiber that the body uses more efficiently than simple carbohydrates. Because they are low in fiber and nutrients, bad choices are simple carbs like sugars and sweets, and refined carbohydrates such as white flour products including regular pasta and bread.

What foods can I eat to get an energy boost?


The latest research shows that a combination of complex carbohydrates and good protein choices give the best-sustained energy as determined by blood sugar levels. Good protein sources are beans, corn, rice, soy, fish, and egg whites. Also, low fat, high-quality meats like free-range poultry, wild game, organic beef, and ostrich are excellent sources. Some complex carbohydrate choices include fruits, vegetables, brown or wild rice, and whole grain foods. Combining a piece of fruit and hard-boiled egg whites are a very good example of a complex carbohydrate source and pure protein source. They work together to keep blood sugar at an acceptable level and give the feeling of having more energy.

What is the suggested guideline for eating eggs?


A good guideline would be to eat four whites to one yolk. The whites have the most protein, while the yolk is where fat is stored. The yolk should never be broken and cooked because fats exposed to direct heat become free radicals that harm the liver and blood. Don't eat scrambled eggs unless only the whites are being used. Over easy and hard-boiled eggs, or any option where the yolk remains unbroken is fine.

Does dieting according to your blood type sound logical?


There is some validity to that theory. However, it shouldn't be taken literally or to the extreme. Many diets fail because they don't take enough of an individual's needs into account. Some people may have the same blood type, but different metabolisms and dietary needs. Diets that have scientific validity shouldn't necessarily be followed to the tee because every individual has unique nutritional needs.

Is it ever okay to eat something that isn't good for me?


A good rule to keep in mind is the "Thrill Me to Death" principle. If occasionally ingesting an unhealthy food, dessert, or drink thrills you to death, then the psychological benefit outweighs the physical harm. The trick to maintaining a balanced diet is avoiding bad choices that don't thrill you. We often eat unhealthy foods out of habit when we wouldn't miss not eating them. So, if you go to a bakery that is known for its great bread, and you'll experience a thrill eating it, it's worth the extra calories and carbohydrates for the psychological pleasure. However, choices should be made carefully and consciously while educating ourselves on the foods we can do without.

There are many power bars on the market but are they any different from each other?


People need to recognize that power bars are snacks or desserts. Eating a bar as a meal replacement is a bad idea because they are generally high in sugars, low in fiber, and unhealthy oils are added. Many of them are coated in chocolate or peanut butter, which are toxic substances. Read the label and look for natural, whole ingredients like whey, protein, whole grains, fruit, and raw oils like sesame. Avoid artificial colors or preservatives and sweeteners. Some power bars have good qualities about them and others have bad ones, but few are what would be considered a healthy product
