6 Needs to maintain our Health 

Food

Water

Air

Exercise

Emotional Factors

Sleeping 

Food

We are consuming "Inorganic Food" instead of "Organic Food". Our Food contains 500 chemicals which decreases our IMMUNITY

What is Immunity?

Immunity is a biological term that describes a state of having sufficient biological defenses to avoid infection, disease, or other unwanted biological invasion. Immunity involves both specific and non-specific components. The non-specific components act either as barriers or as eliminators of wide range of pathogens irrespective of antigenic specificity. Other components of the immune system adapt themselves to each new disease encountered and are able to generate pathogen-specific immunity.

Organic Food

Organic refers to foods cultivated & processed without Fertilizers, Insecticides, Artificial coloring, Artificial flavorings or Additives.

It is naturally produced foods

What is Chemicals?

It is Artificial Products to induce the fastest growth of plants.

This food items contains insufficient amount of minerals & Vitamins.

This chemicals induce Cancer, aging process, poor Digestion, Heart Problem

American Medical Association Reported in July 2000

2,50,000 people killed every year because of medical treatment

Causes include infection caught in Hospitals- 80,000 people

Unnecessary surgery - 12,000

Miscellaneous - 20,000

Americans die from being given the wrong drugs - 7000

Americans die from the side effects of being given right drugs - 1,06,000 

Main Cause of Death in India

• Heart Disease
• Diabetes
• Cancer
• Medical Treatment

What is difference between natural therapy & Chemical therapy

• Treatment to only Symptoms
• No treatment to root & cause of diseases
• For ex: If patient has got cough, usually chemical treatment is only treatment to cough.
• But actual reason is, low immunity power.

Water

Our Water contains 200 chemicals

Air 

It was said - 38 % oxygen in atmosphere 10,000 years back.

According survey in 1965 - 21 % oxygen

But in cities like Chennai, Delhi, Bombay - oxygen % is 12 %- 16 % .

When it go down below 7 %, what we should do? 

We have to buy oxygen like water 

Exercises

At least daily, we need 30 minutes jogging to maintain our health properly.

Those who are willing to reduce weight, Need 30 to 45 minutes running.

Emotional Factors & Sleeping are also affecting our body

That's why we need food supplements

Nowadays, there is no possible to get organic foods.

Water is only possible those who are having affordable to buy.

Air is gradually polluted

Nobody is doing regular exercises to maintain their health.

Emotional factors & sleeping are also not proper. 

Why We Need Food Supplements: 

If You Think You may not need Dietary Supplements, 

Read this

Finally, after more than 50 years, leading medical journal now recommend all adults take multivitamins

New England Journal of Medicine & Journal of the American Medical Association 

Have Concluded That:

Most People do not consume an optimal amount of all Vitamins by Diet Alone.

Inadequate intake of several vitamins has been linked to chronic diseases, including Coronary Heart Disease, Cancer & Osteoporosis.

Sub optimal Folic Acid levels, along with sub optimal levels of Vitamins B6 & B12, are a risk factor for Cardiovascular Disease, Neural Tube Defects, & Colon & Breast Cancer.

Low Levels of Vitamin D contribute to Osteoporosis & Bone Fracture

Low Levels of Antioxidant Vitamins (Vit A, E & C ) May increase risk for several Chronic Diseases.

Why You Can't Depend on Food Alone For

Essential Nutrition

Here are 

22 Reasons

Reason # 1

Overfed & Undernourished

The average American are Overfed & undernourished.

Consuming fabricated convenience foods High in Calories but low in food value

Sub clinical or marginal deficiencies such as

• Nervousness
• Listlessness
• Recurring minor infections
• General aches & pains
• Difficulty concentrating
• Irritability
• Depression
• Muscle weakness
• Fatigue
• Insomnia & just not feeling right

According to U.S. Dept. of Agriculture Survey of 20,000 people. Not a single person was consuming adequate levels of all the Vitamins & Minerals

In this study, the percentage of Americans was found to be deficient as follows:

• 90% in Vit. B6
• 75% in Mag.
• 68% in Calcium
• 57% in Iron
• 50% in Vit A
• 45% in Vit B1
• 41% in Vit C
• 34% in Vit B2
• 34% in Vit B12
• …. And the list goes on.

Reason # 2

Soil Depletion:

Modern Mass-production Agriculture depletes nutrients from the soil without replenishing them.

he application of synthetic fertilizers stimulates the growth of beautiful-looking plants. However, the nutrient content is missing.

So, we are getting less nutrition today than from the identical foods grown in the same soil 50 years ago.

Reason #3

Commercial Food Processing

Much of Food we eat is processed in one way or another way

When Foods are processed, they are exposed to

• Heat
• Light
• Oxygen
• Drastic changes in temperature or humidity

This exposure causes the destruction of vital but fragile nutrients

Examples of processing include

• Baking
• Extruding
• Milling
• Grinding
• Boiling
• Cooking
• Recombining
• Spray drying

Reason #4

Food Storage & Transportation

• All Foods deteriorate as they age.
• Many foods are shipped over great distances. So Chemicals are added to preserve foods & give them a longer "shelf life"
• The nutrient content of foods decline over time, even though they look the same.
• Even fresh fruits or vegetables may be Sprayed, Gassed or Fumigated in order to make them look "ripe" & "fresh"

Reason #5

Preparation & Cooking of Foods

• The More You Cook a Food, The Less its Nutrient Value
• Many People eat out or bring something home from the market ie already cooked.
• If You overcook Rice, You lose nutrients

Reason #6

Home Storage of Food:

• Have You Looked in Your Refrigerator Lately?
• Refrigeration does slow down the deterioration of food.
• It certainly does not stop it.
• As every day goes by, whatever is in your refrigerator is losing its nutritional value.
• Some People eat three weeks old food from Refrigerator, or something from the Pantry ie year Old. By this time, some Vital Nutrients have been completely lost. 

Reason #7

Food Irradiation

• Exposing foods to Gamma rays, X-rays or other radiation extends their shelf life by destruction of Microorganism,
• Inhibition of Sprouting (Budding) & delay of ripening.
• Some Meats, Chicken and Vegetables are irradiated.
• Foods served in Restaurants or Schools may be irradiated
• There's no label to tell you if a food has been irradiated
• Antioxidants & Fat-Soluble Vitamins (A,D,E & K) are Destroyed. 

Reason #8 

Pesticides in Foods

A Pesticide is a poison

• A little bit of pesticide will kill a bug. A lot of pesticide will kill us.
• Most foods contain pesticide.
• Pesticides may be applied to the soil, to the growing plant, or to the food while in storage or shipment.

We can't see, smell or taste these pesticides

• So we have no way of knowing if what we are eating contains pest poisons.
• But our body knows.
• Some pesticides can accumulate in the body & cause problems.
• Our body has to deal with the problem by expending valuable Vitamins & minerals to detoxify & try to eliminate these poisons

Reason #9

Genetically Modified Foods

• Millions of acre of genetically modified Corn, Cotton & Potatoes have been planted in the U. S. These foods, which are now in food supply, have been engineered to produce a naturally occurring pesticide ie toxic only to insects.
• Genetically modified foods are not safe to human beings
• Rats fed genetically modified potatoes had increased Intestinal infections, Reduced Immunity & reduced weight of intestine, Pancreas, Kidneys, Liver, Lungs & Brain 

Reason #10

Environmental Pollution

• We dump nearly 6 billion (one thousand million) pounds of chemicals into our environment every year.
• While some of it ends up in our food, much of it is in our air & water.
• If you breathe air & drink water, you are ingesting chemical pollution
• Medical research has already established that environmental chemicals contribute to Degenerative Diseases.
• We have no choice but to eat food, drink water & breathe air.
• Therefore, we need dietary supplements top help us process & detoxify the pollution entering our body every day 

Reason #11

Bioaccumulation of pollution in animal foods

Process of accumulation of chemicals in our body

• They are certain persistent pollutants that tend to accumulate in any living thing, whether animal or plant.
• The Higher up the food chain, the greater the accumulation.
• Take swordfish for example.
• Swordfish is known to high levels of mercury, a toxic metal.
• The problem starts when small BAITFISH eats organic material that contains Mercury.
• They metabolize the organic material but retain mercury.
• SMALL PREDATORY FISH then eat the BAITFISH, thus inheriting their accumulated Mercury
• The more BAITFISH they eat, the more Mercury they accumulate. 

Fish is intermediater

• Finally, a SWORDFISH comes along & eats a bunch of Small PREDATORY FISH, & pick ups a load of Mercury.
• So a big SWORD FISH can gather a lot of Mercury over time.
• But the SWORD FISH is not the end of the chain.

We are!

• We eat the SWORD FISH, & now all that accumulate mercury is stored in "our" body.
• Sword Fish is only one example out of hundreds.

Here's the point

• We are at the top of the entire food chain on earth.
• Therefore, we unknowingly accumulate heavy metals & Chemical pollutants.

Final Conclusion

If we consume animal foods, you need dietary supplements to help us handle the pollution they contain.

Reason #12

Energy Pollution

It is Invisible Burdens in our body

Nuclear Pollution

For Ex: Nuclear testing in Nevada which caused an increase in CANCERS downwind from the test site

Altered Magnetic Fields 

From Electrical Motors & circuits, & all kinds of energy transmissions ( microwave, radar, cell phone, etc…)

Effects in our body 

It destroys or damage the cells directly.

It causes stress reaction in our body leads to HORMONAL IMBALENCE

For Ex: Energy pollution reduces our levels of MELATONIN, an ESSENTIAL HORMONE

Nobody can escape from this type of ENERGY POLLUTION

So we need FOOD SUPPLEMENT

Reason #13

Genetic Weaknesses

None of us is Perfect

Each of us is Genetically & Biochemically unique.

But none of us is perfect.

We all have some kind of genetic weakness.

For Example:

We might have a genetic abnormality in METHIONINE metabolism called HOMOCYSTINURIA.

In this case, taking large doses of vitamin B6 is a way to compensate for this function.

There are hundreds of example like this 

Many of them can be minimized with dietary supplement

Reason #14

Chronic Stress

Most of the time, You're not aware of stress 

• "Stress" occurs when your body has a fight or flight response to any situation
• Stress can come from anywhere at any time.

It could be a

• A barking dog
• A disagreeable boss
• A car needs repair
• An unpaid bill
• A relationship that isn't working, or living alone…Anything at all

But your body doesn't

• You become so accustomed to stress that you consciously tune it out

Chronic Stress

• When stress is repeated over & over, it is called chronic stress.
• This seriously depletes your body of energy & vital reserves.

Hormonal Imbalance

Chronic stress produces hormones that have a long-term weakening effects on our body which accelerates the aging process & leads to chronic degenerative diseases.

So we need supplements that reduce the detrimental effects of chronic stress. 

Reason #15

Our Lifestyle

How we behave may increase our need for supplements

For ex, Smoking or Drinking alcohol to excess dramatically saps your reserves of vital nutrients.

How we behave may increase our need for supplements

For ex, Smoking or Drinking alcohol to excess dramatically saps your reserves of vital nutrients.

In both cases, Dietary supplementation is not an option - IT'S REQUIREMENT.

How we behave may increase our need for supplements

If you are an avid mountain climber or high-performance athlete, you use up nutrients faster than the average person.

The same is true if you work in a physically demanding occupation, your performance will be improved with dietary supplementation.

Reason #16

GI Problems

Any kind of Digestive or GI problem

Will diminish our ABSORBTION of Vitamins, Minerals, Protein, Essential fats Plant substances.

Any kind of Digestive or GI problem

Like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Colitis, Crohn's disease & Chronic Diarrhea hurt our ability to absorb nutrients.

Ditto for Bacterial, Viral, Yeast or Parasitic Infections.

Food allergies are notorious for causing GI problems.

In short, any inflammation in our GI tract means trouble.

Therefore, we will need supplements to help us deal with the inflammation, as well as to increase the amount of essential nutrients we are consuming & absorbing.

Reason #17

Weak Digestion

You have an impaired ability to digest your food

• Heartburn
• Bloat after eating
• Burping &
• Gas

Supplementary aids may be indicated

If you can not digest your food, it can not be absorbed into your body.

Reason #18

Getting Older

According to medical studies

• We lose our digestive power as we get older.
• By the time we are "elderly", we have a serious problem that can only be corrected by supplementation.
• Many elderly people eat less than they did in earlier years. In this case, supplements can augment. 

Reason #19

Teenager

Most teenagers need supplementation

• It's no secret that adolescents eat & drinks things that are very unhealthy, i.e., "Junk food".
• This is no way to nourish a maturing body.

Reason #20

Chronic Disease or Disorder

• It doesn't matter what the disorder is
• It could be Arthritis, Macular Degeneration, Cancer, Diabetes, High BP, Asthma, Eczema, PMS or anything else.
• Specific dietary supplements can help almost any disorder.

Reason #21

Medications

Drugs interact with supplements, or cause an increased need for them

Nothing in our body operates in isolated compartments - everything interacts with everything else in some way.

So many drugs interact with supplements, or cause an increased need for them.

Drugs interact with supplements, or cause an increased need for them

• For ex, women on Birth control pills may have an increased need for Vitamin B6.
• People on Glucophage need more Calcium, B12 & Folic acid. The list is endless.
• So if you are on medication, you need specific supplements.

Reason #22

Pregnancy

To have a healthier baby 

• When you become pregnant, Nutrition requirements are increased.
• It's your & your baby benefits to take supplementation to reduce your risk of a Miscarriage or pregnancy complications, and to have a healthier baby
