Why Do We Get Ill, Sick & Old?

The Cause Of Disease

This might seem hard to believe. . . . . BUT,

We as humans don't actually age, we don't get sick and we don't get diseases -- our cells do. Our body health is dependent on our cells' health. So to slow down aging, limit sickness and prevent disease we must protect and properly feed our cells.

What are cells made of ?

Cells are made up of many atoms. When these atoms are healthy the cells replicate ( make an exact copy ) and keep the body young, well and disease free. What makes an atom healthy is that it has "paired" electrons.

How do cells age, get ill and diseased ?

Atoms missing an electron are not just "bad" -- they actually destroy surrounding atoms by stealing their electrons. An atom missing an electron is called a Free Radical. Free Radicals alter or destroy cells. Cells that die, and cells that replicate in a damaged state are the cause or contribute to premature aging, sicknesses and diseases such as cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis and many others.

Where do Free Radicals come from ?

Smoking
Medications
Mercury in seafood and teeth fillings
Stress
Foods
Sunlight
Food additives
Pesticides
X-rays
Pollution
Exercise
Airline Travel
Chlorine in treated water
One cigarette generates approximately one quadrillion free radicals ! ( 1,000,000,000,000,000 )

The Solution

The solution is ANTIOXIDANTS.

Antioxidants have "extra" electrons that they can give to free radicals, which eliminates their harmful effects.

Antioxidants are your body's defense against destructive free radicals. Therefore they are your defense against aging, sickness and disease.

Not so long ago, diseases were accepted as unfortunate but inevitable facts of life. We know that diseases are not "caught" but are caused by what we eat or don't eat.

Where do antioxidants come from ?

Antioxidants are found in fruits and vegetables. They are also found in other types of foods such as nuts, oils, beans, etc. Research studies suggest that organic foods have higher concentrations of antioxidants than processed foods grown with pesticides.

Antioxidants are also found in high quality vitamin supplements because most adults do not eat the right foods to properly feed their cells.

This lead us to the question,

What Do Vitamins and Minerals Do For Me ?

Where do vitamins / minerals come from ?

VITAMINS are natural substances found in living things such as plants. Vitamins must be obtained in the body from foods or supplements as they cannot usually be produced by the body.

MINERALS are found in plants. Plants get their mineral from the soil -- soil gets minerals from water washing over rocks. For vitamins to do their job, they require minerals. Minerals must be obtained from food or supplements.

ANTIOXIDANTS are specific vitamins or minerals that protect body cells from the damaging effects of Free Radicals. Free radicals come from or are caused by smoking, sunlight, stress, exercise, etc, and are one of the primary causes for premature aging, sickness and disease.

How do vitamins / minerals get in the body ?

Vitamins and minerals get into your body when you eat plants such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and spices or when you take vitamin/mineral supplement. You can also get some vitamins and minerals into your body by eating meat as most animals eat plant food.

SUPPLEMENTS are vitamins and minerals that have been extracted from a plant or created in a laboratory and put into a form that can be ingested and used by the body.

There are effective supplements, ineffective supplements and hazardous supplements.

Uneducated consumers are at risk from 2 sides.

Consumer knows they should supplement but doesn't know how to select an effective supplement, therefore they waste their money, time and health.
Consumer is uninformed ( or given bad advice ) on the need to supplement and sacrifices their health.

Where do vitamins / minerals go in the body ?

Vitamins and minerals go from your stomach to your intestines. They then go through a very complex allocation system whereby the body distributes certain vitamins and minerals to parts of your body based on its own priority system.

If a nutrient is needed in a certain organ that it ( the body ) deems more important, it will take the nutrient from a less important organ, and allocate it to a more important organ. Sort of a "rob Peter to pay Paul" action. That's why it is critical to maintain proper vitamin & mineral levels.

Vitamins and minerals in your body should not be viewed as independent substances, but rather as a cooperative network of nutrients working together. If one nutrient is missing, it throws the entire network of nutrients out of balance.

How do vitamins / minerals leave the body ?

Vitamins and minerals are "used" by the body. As they perform their function, they often use themselves up in the process, which is the case with most of the critical disease-fighting antioxidants. Even thinking uses vitamins and minerals. Exercise and stress use a lot of vitamins and minerals; the use of diuretics (substances that increase the discharge of urine) such as drugs, alcohol, coffee, tea and sodas -- washes vitamins and minerals out of the body creating deficiencies -- this can create a major health problem !

Tobacco and alcohol can also inhibit the absorption of vitamins and minerals, or accelerate the loss of them.

Your health, Your intelligence, Your Energy and Your appearance are dependent on you replenishing your vitamins and minerals several times per day.

"Insufficient vitamin intake is apparently a cause of chronic diseases. . . . Most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone. Pending strong evidence of effectiveness from randomized trials, it appears prudent for all adults to take vitamin supplements." -- American Medical Association
