Vitamin Supplements

I believe that it is possible to stay healthy into ripe old age and to prevent, stabilise and even perhaps to reverse, many of the chronic degenerative diseases.

Underpinning all my research and advice is this simple fact. Given the right nutrition and lifestyle, our bodies have amazing powers of self-healing and regeneration.

They have to because almost every cell and tissue in your body breaks down and is replaced on a regular basis. Bone is re-absorbed into the body and then renewed, cartilage in joints experiences wear and tear but is renewed, membranes of nerve and other cells are broken down and replaced.

This natural process of wear and repair is going on all the time in your trillions of cells. The process of growth and re-growth in bones, cartilage and other tissues is called anabolic. The process of tissue breakdown is called catabolic.
Nutrition and Your Mental Health

What does nutrition have to do with mental health? You might be surprised to find out the truth behind what happens when a person has a nutritional deficiency.

Nutritional deficiencies can cause all sorts of psychiatric symptoms including apathy, low energy, irritability, insomnia, low energy, agitation, fatigue, concentration problems, aches and pains, weight changes, including weight loss or weight gain. Sound a lot like the symptoms of depression? The truth is the average American diet of fast food is low in vital nutrition that you need for your body to function correctly.

This isn’t to say that all depression is caused by bad nutrition but it’s certainly a contributing factor in many cases and poor nutrition will always make depression worse. Antidepressant drugs also do not correct nutritional problems. So if your depressed because of nutritional problems an antidepressant will only partially cover up the problem and you body still won’t function correctly.

United state vitamin or nutrition distributor?

can you tell me about the US nutrition or vitamin supplier or distributor because i didn’t found any good or low prices distributor for my web site?
i want to sell our products at amazon health and personal category and every one know about the amazon there is a lots of sellers with a very very cheapest prices so i didnt found any seller or distributor who give me a much to discount and offer me of all type vitamins and supplements?

There isn’t one general distributor in the U.S… there are literally hundreds of thousands if not millions of different types of vitamin/nutrition distributors in the U.S.

If you wanted to find some outlet to advertise for your website, you could certainly contact any of the various marketing companies to see if they could help you advertise or just advertise for it yourself. Not many distributors will pick up a new company’s products unless they are well documented and tested for quality et al. Good luck and I hope I helped!

Is it possible to take vitamins and not eat?

I am wondering if one could survive on vitamins and not food. People on here always so no you shouldn’t starve yourself because you wouldnt get proper nutrition. Well vitamins have 100% daily value (sometimes more) of everything! Could this make me lose weight

Yeah, you would definatly lose weight but when you started eating again, your body would pile the weight on quickly! This is called yoyo dieting. You would be soooo hungry and lack energy. Vitamins give you vitamins, not the energy your body need to funstion and absorb the nutrients. Don’t do it. Take the vitamins, but keep eating healthily.

CURIOUS: Is there any area of vitamin nutrition that is left out that is important for this person’s health ?

Taking B complex, Amino Acids, Vitamin C, Hyaluronic acid for joints. And C-0-Q-10 for heart.

Is this complete , or is there an area of supplements that is being left out? Any suggestions for supplements to make it more complete, or well rounded health wise?

If you are female and of reproductive age, there are a couple of things that you might add:
Calcium – for bones
Iron – for blood
Folate – to protect against birth defects. They have recently upped the recommended dose for women who might become pregnant. However, there might also be cancer risks associated with excessive consumption.

In general, and with the exceptions of the three things I mention above in women, a well balanced diet that includes plenty of fresh fruits and vegitables will cover your nutritional needs. If you really think your diet doesn’t cover your needs, perhaps you could visit a nutritionist or ask your OB-GYN for further advice.

Anyone know of a nutrition dictionary which gives definitions of which vitamins are contained in which foods?

Eg apples contain vitamin x, y and z and sweet potato contains a, b, c etc.

There’s a book called Food Tables and Labelling by A E Bender and D A Bender. Not really a dictionary as such, it does make interesting reading and includes tables for most basic, fresh and processed foods. I bought a copy a few months ago when I wanted to study nutrition.

To get away from the faddy health and diet books I found the book under education, it’s used in nutrition or food sciences in schools and colleges.

You can get it on line from Amazon, Tesco and Waterstone if you want more information.
