Supplement Strategy for heart health and your body
What is the purpose of supplements? what are we trying to accomplish when taking supplements? The Idea of supplements means or implies an inability of the nutrition we consume to provide what we need to nourish our body (That is Vitamins and minerals). And that is for a whole variety of reasons. So how do we know what nutrients we are missing? The human body is a marvel and intelligent system; if we pay attention carefully it tells us what it needs. What to provide to support it.
Your Fat
Fat as we know it. Specifically the dietary Fat. Let’s not forget that Fat is essential to our subsistence. Fat has been vilified. We have pitifully tried to eliminate it from the food chain, giving the top spot to grain and carbs. The result has been catastrophic. We should learn to understand Fat and embrace it (the good fat of course). Let’s understand how important Fat is.
Your Hormones
For complex machinery like the human body to function at the optimal level, there must be an army of messengers carrying information (Signals) from executive management (The brain) to the various part of the body. If the messengers do not do their job, the machinery does not function properly. Think of it like middle management not forwarding or properly informing the workforce about new objectives or direction set by head office…
Proper steps need to be done to support ‘the messengers’ so they can carry out their task of getting signals to various parts of the body.
Your Sleep
Here is how important your sleep is. Those important signals (hormones) that your brain send to various part of the body to make it work properly, may be compromised if you don’t have a good regimen of sleep. The hygiene (That’s quantity and quality) of sleep is arguably competing in terms of importance with nutrition and exercise. So take notice this is a foundation of your overall health.
Your Fitness
So many benefits are associated with fitness and exercise. And that’s beyond the obvious physical well-being. Think about a better life in the later years without mobility issues and better Heart health. Better mental health and brain functions, capacity to withstand stressful situations, and recovery faster. A whole host of benefits are derived from keeping fit and only contribute positively to other foundations of health.
