Lyle MacWilliam MSc, FP author of Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements states:

” After 20 years , the American Medical Association (AMA) has completely reversed its previous anti-vitamin stance and now encourages all adults to supplement daily with a multiple vitamin. A landmark review of 38 years of scientific evidence by Harvard researchers , Dr Robert Fletcher and Dr Kathleen Fairfield , has convinced the conservative Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) to rewrite its policy guidelines regarding the use of vitamin supplements . In two reports , published in the June 19, 2002 edition of JAMA, the authors conclude that the current North American diet, while sufficient to prevent vitamin deficiency diseases , such as scurvy and pellagra, is inadequate to support the need for optimal health.”

After WWII traditional mulching and manuring practices were abandoned for synthetic fertilizers which has lead to the depletion of micro-nutrients in the soil . Nowadays , even if you are eating the daily recommended 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each, it is still virtually impossible to get the optimal nutrients your body needs since these fruits and vegetables are grown in mineral depleted soil.

What are antioxidants?

Every cell in the body has a mitochondria or furnace. Oxygen is essential for the mitochondria to produce energy and create life, however occasionally a charged oxygen molecule also known as a free radical is created. A charged oxygen molecule has an unpaired electron in its outer surface and can create havoc in the body over time leading to premature aging and numerous diseases . Antioxidants bind with the unpaired electron and neutralize the free radical. Organically grown fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants.

What is Oxidative Stress?

When the lifestyle that you are leading creates too many free radicals and your intake of antioxidants isn’t high enough to neutralize them Oxidative stress occurs.

How does Oxidative Stress Affect Us?

Oxidative stress leads to premature ageing and numerous chronic degenerative illnesses. This is what Ray D. Strand M.D. Specialist in Nutritional Medicine says :

” Over the past 7 years , I have reviewed well over 2,000 medical and scientific studies in regards to nutritional supplements and their affect on your health. These studies appearing in medical journals like the New England Journal of American Medical Association and Annals of Internal Medicine report that beyond any doubt the “root” cause of well over 70 chronic degenerative diseases is “oxidative stress” . Diseases like heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, chronic fatigue, Alzheimer’s dementia, macular degeneration, lupus, MS, and fibromyalgia. ”

How do I choose a supplement?

Supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA. Many don’t live up to their claims because of lack of quality control- inferior ingredients or low dosages and poor absorption . Some even cause more harm then good because of high levels of lead and toxins. As consumers we don’t really know what is in the supplements we are taking or how much is really absorbed by the body. Often popular supplement companies spend much of their budget on marketing and advertising and produce products that are inferior in quality that not only don’t they live up to their claims but can even be harmful.

Take a look at why USANA supplements are trusted by so many MD’s and Olympians and why they have received the highest ratings in the industry.

There are numerous reasons why we believe that Usana vitamins are the best products on the markets. Some of our reasons are listed below.

Usana vitamins are award winning pharmaceutical grade.

This means that what is stated on the label is in the bottle. Free of contaminants and toxins , the superior ingredients and correct dosages used in Usana vitamins come from years of clinical research.

Vitamins aren’t regulated by the FDA because they are food grade. Many don’t live up to their claims because of lack of quality control- inferior ingredients or low dosages and poor absorption . Some even cause more harm then good containing high levels of lead and toxins.

As consumers we don’t really know what is in the vitamins we are taking or how much is really absorbed by the body. Often popular brands spend much of their budget on marketing and advertising and produce products that are inferior in quality that not only don’t live up to their claims but can even be harmful.

Here are some more reasons why we choose Usana vitamins:

• Founded by Dr Myron Wentz in 1992 an internationally recognized microbiologist , immunologist and pioneer in the development of human cell culture technology and infectious disease diagnoses. Dr. Wentz founded Gull Laboratories and developed the first commercially available test for diagnosing infection with the Epstein-Barr virus.

• Dr Wentz is also winner of the prestigious Albert Einstein Award for Outstanding Achievements in the Life Sciences.

• Supplements aren’t FDA regulated since they are food grade. USANA’s advanced formulas meet United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) guidelines for potency, uniformity and disintegration; and they are manufactured according to pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) standards.

• Received the NutriSearch Gold Medal of Achievements for proven product excellence. Only four nutritional supplements out of over 1,500 from Canada and the US that have been tested have received this distinguished award.

• Receiving 5-Star Gold Standard from NutriSearch rating means that USANA vitamins has met 18 rating criteria developed from scientific literature. It also means that the supplements have been independently tested for dosage, stated ingredients and absorption and guarantees that what is on the label is really in the bottle.

• USANA vitamins are listed in the Physicians’ Desk Reference. This widely distributed volume is the reference of choice for doctors who need an accurate and authoritative overview of prescription and non prescription pharmaceutical products.

Pesticides that kill bugs are toxins that not only contaminate our foods but contaminate our ground water. These toxins can’t be washed off the food , they are absorbed by the plant and when the fruit or vegetable is ingested these toxins build up in the body. We are a microcosm of planet earth and whatever we put into her eventually ends up in us. Plants grown with conventional or NPK fertilizers (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) are also depleted of essential micronutrients that traditional mulching and manuring provides.

Sodas

Loaded with sugar or artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors and colors. Sodas quickly spike the blood sugar level leading to inflammation and weight gain. Sodas also contain Phosphorus and high levels of phosphorus have been shown to draw calcium out of bones.

Coffee

Coffee is one of the most heavily sprayed crops with pesticides and herbicides. If you must drink coffee drink only organically grown coffee preferably fairly traded so a community instead of a few wealthy elite benefit from the profits. Coffee also contains acids that have a corrosive effect on the villi of the intestines making the absorption of nutrients poor . Heavy coffee drinkers are deficient in minerals and have higher cholesterol.

High glycemic foods

These are processed denatured foods. They are foods that have been highly refined and are low in nutritional value and quickly boost the blood sugar level leading to inflammation and weight gain. The more processed a carbohydrate is the less fiber it contains and the higher the glycemic index.
Foods with a high glycemic index include white flour products, white rice , sugars and artificial sweeteners, breads-white and wheat, potatoes and pastas and most cereals .
The less processed a grain is the better. For example rolled oats have a lower glycemic index then instant oats and brown rice has a lower glycemic index then brown rice pasta. Grains should be eaten in their most unrefined states.

Milk

Is meant to be a food on its own for babies. It is full of fat which is essential for babies not adults. Pasteurisation of milk destroys active enzymes- lactase and lipase- which are present in raw milk and help break it down. Pasteurised milk is difficult to digest and leads to lots of phlegm and mucous which can aggravate asthma and sinuses and leads to weight gain. Drinking milk with foods also causes the milk to coagulating around the food and obstructs digestion. Cow milk needs to be avoided by overweight people and people with asthma and allergies. Milk is also not the best source of calcium. Calcium is a mineral that is absorbed from the soil by plants , it’s not produced by cows.

Hydrogenated oil

Such as margarine contain trans fats which lower good cholesterol and increase bad cholesterol. Ironically margarine is touted as a healthy choice however it is one of the least healthy fats.

GMO

According to leading scientist genetically modified foods pose a huge threat to human health. Their long term ingestion is unknown and presently we are guinea pigs. GMO also means that multinational giants like Monsanto have a monopoly on seed stocks and control our food supply. GMO crops cross-contaminate non-GMO crops and threaten biodiversity. GMO isn’t about feeding the world. It’s about having a stranglehold on the world’s food supply which translates into power and profit. Look for non GMO since genetically modified foods don’t have to be labeled and don’t be surprised if your favorite cereal in genetically modified.

Commercial meats

If you eat meat, then organic free range meats that are free of growth hormones and antibiotics should be your choice. Animals that are raised on commercial farms are kept in small confined spaces often so small that they can’t even turn around. This is not only tantamount to animal abuse, we could never do this to a pet, but this unhealthy confined environment leads to stress and illness. Animals are given a steady dose of antibiotics to stave off infections and growth hormones to fatten them up quickly. When we ingest these commercial meats that are full of antibiotics they wipe out our intestinal flora, good bacteria, needed for nutritional absorption. You might be eating your fruits and vegetables but if they aren’t being properly broken down and assimilated your cells aren’t getting the nourishment they need. The widespread use of antibiotics also leads to the emergence of resistant bacteria or “superbugs” that have become immune to antibiotics.


The steady dose of growth hormones that plumped up these livestock is also plumping us up. Growth hormones lead to weight gain and have been implicated in the growth of cancers. Excessive meat eating also leads to the body becoming more acidic as uric acid from the meat builds up in your body. Meat is also a source of omega-6 fatty acids which trigger an inflammatory response in the body.

Grass is the natural diet of a cow, however corn is used to fatten cows up at a much faster rate. This corn is not only a unnatural diet but it is usually genetically modified unless otherwise advertised. Grass fed doesn’t mean organic and organic doesn’t mean grass fed so make sure to look for both

Excessive protein intake

Most Americans are obsessed with protein and consume twice the amount that is actually needed, usually in the form of animal protein. Excessive meat consumption not only weakens the kidneys but leads to the buildup 
of uric acid in the body and it becoming more acidic leading to many generative diseases. Grains and vegetables contain plenty of proteins they just need to be eaten in various combinations to create complete amino acids.
As Dr McDougall says: “Since plants are made up of structurally sound cells with enzymes and hormones, they are by nature rich sources of proteins.  In fact, so rich are plants that they can meet the protein needs of the earth’s largest animals: elephants, hippopotamuses, giraffes, and cows.  You would be correct to deduce that the protein needs of relatively small humans can easily be met by plants.” www.drmacdougall.com

An Acre of land
An acre of land used to raise cattle for slaughter yields 20 lbs of usable protein. That acre yields 356 lbs of protein if soybeans were grown instead.

“One third of the world is well fed, One third is under fed, One third is starving.”- The World Health Organization

Omega 3 essential fatty acids have the opposite effect on the body and trigger an anti inflammatory response. Foods that contain omega 3 fatty acids are cold-water fish and fish oil , flaxseeds and flaxseed oil, soybeans, walnuts and walnut oil, organic free range omega 3 enhanced eggs.

The typical American diet contains foods that provide an over abundance of omega 6 fatty acids while being low in omega 3 fatty acids. The ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 should be 2:1 , however the typical American eats a ration of 20:1.

Free range cattle raised on grass, which is the natural diet of cows, is rich in omega 3 fatty acids, however, most cattle nowadays are raised on grains to fatten them up quickly and cattle that are raised on corn or other grains produce meat that is high in omega 6 but not omega 3.

Cold- water fish are rich in omega 3 fatty acids however, some fish are high in mercury and other various toxins. Most farm raised fish should be avoided since they are highest in toxins and low on omega 3 since they aren’t raised on marine algae. Unfortunately many wild fish are also high in mercury and various toxins since our oceans have become contaminated by pollution .

It is also unrealistic to think that the oceans of the world can sustain the voracious appetite of the human population especially that of the developed world where 2-3 servings of fish are advocated by some. The Monterey Bay Aquarium provides an excellent resource for which fish should be avoided because of over fishing or fishing practices that wreak havoc on marine life and the oceans ecosystem. Health alerts on which fish species are most toxic are also provided. Click on www.mbayaq.org then click on save the oceans and seafoodwatch

USANA’s BiOmega is fish oil that has gone through a double-molecular distillation process ensuring that it is free of heavy metals, PCB’s and pesticides.

Freshly ground flaxseed is also a excellent source of omega three. Make sure to grind the flaxseed freshly so the oils don’t go rancid. Flaxseed that isn’t ground up just passes through the body undigested.

 In the past 50 years fishing has exterminated 90 percent of large fish populations.- Greenpeace Facts
