Health and Nutrition: November 25, 2008
Proverbs 15:13
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance:
but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
Commentary
For anyone first reading the Health and Nutrition post, please read this first: Your Health
I placed a wide array of material on this posting. Notice how antioxidants are becoming more and more important for your health. You can eat food rich in antioxidants the types of which I have posted on this blog. You can also get supplements which are high in the antioxidants. Please make sure your diet is rich in the antioxidants. I highly suggest you take the supplements because you have no idea what is in the food. God bless you.
Nutrition
“Fish oil capsules and fatty fish do an equally good job of enriching the blood and other body tissues with healthy omega-3 fatty acids, new findings suggest.”
Potato Is Safest Food on Menu The Irish knew this all along!
Health
“Cancer, cardiovascular diseases, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s are often linked to DNA damage that occurs when metal ions in the body such as iron and copper produce reactive oxygen compounds that damage human cells. Studies have shown antioxidants that neutralize this activity and that occur naturally in fruits, vegetables, green tea, garlic and onions can be effective at preventing DNA damage.”
“A naturally occurring compound found in many fruits and vegetables as well as red wine, selectively kills leukemia cells in culture while showing no discernible toxicity against healthy cells,”
“The pharmacy researchers have shown that drinking green tea helps the action of important antibiotics in their fight against resistant superbugs, making them up to three times more effective.”
Pharmaceuticals lurking in U.S. drinking water This is why I tell everyone to have a good filtration system in their home.
“A vast array of pharmaceuticals — including antibiotics, anti-convulsants, mood stabilizers and sex hormones — have been found in the drinking water supplies of at least 41 million Americans, an Associated Press investigation shows.”
Remember you are responsible for your own health: Act now!
Health and nutrition are the two things that go hand in hand. Proper nutrition leads to a healthier body. Scientifically, it can be said that nutrition guides on the aspect and co-relation of diet and health. With proper intake of food in right proportion provides the right kind of nutrition for health.
