| All About Diet And Nutrition |
| 2008-06-30 23:35:00 |
With the fast-paced, technologically driven world people are now living, who would have the slightest idea that the most important rampart of normal living is being neglected? Undeniably, because of the busy courses of people’s lives, people tend to forget some of the vital fragments in maintaining a healthy lifestyle—diet and nutrition. THE CONVERGENCE The terms “diet” and “nutrition” are defined into two different sentences but are greatly connected. By definition, “diet” refers to the food and liquid intake of a person while “nutrition” pertains to the science of dealing with food and nourishment. When these two are combined, an entirely new meaning can be derived. More than the issues of food and l...

| The Importance Of Nutrition |
| 2008-06-28 23:32:00 |
The road to a healthy lifestyle is through the proper amount of nutrition. An imbalance of such may cause poor health, fatigue and a weakened immune system. In order to have the well-balanced nutrients needed to maintain health, individuals must have amino acids, vitamins, fatty acids, sugars, etc. In addition to everyday well-being, nutrition plays a very important role in sports performance. The reason is because the proper amount of nutrition improves strength, energy and agility. Some experts believe that nutrition may also be linked to longevity. Common sense tells us that the healthier we are, the stronger our immune system becomes and the less likely we are to contract certain illnesses. This does not mean that likelihood of certain diseases is e...

Today our diets are full of processed foods; Foods that man has tampered with, not to benefit our bodies but to give the food a longer shelf life to increase corporate profits. We are eating fast foods which are filled with fat, salt, sugar and consequently we are eating ourselves to death.

| Nutrition – What Are The Nutritional Needs? |
| 2008-06-23 23:28:00 |
Nutrition as it applies to our daily lives means that we take in what we need to maintain our body’s healthy state. Nutrition has become an important word thanks to the involvement of the USDA in our daily food requirements, and the FDA’s involvement in determining what is and is not dangerous for us to consume. But what is our responsibility in the nutrition game? Do we understand what our nutritional requirements are, how to fulfill those requirements, and how to look for real nutritional value in our foods? I’m not sure that nutrition has been successfully addressed in its own right. We hear nutrition in relation to our vitamin intake, our fortified cereals and milk, and in the context that we need “nutritional value” from our food choices....

| Taking Nutrition Seriously |
| 2008-06-15 23:24:00 |
The importance of good nutrition is nothing new. Back in 400 B.C., Hippocrates said, "Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food." Today, good nutrition is more important than ever. At least four of the 10 leading causes of death in the U.S.--heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes -- are directly related to way we eat; diet is also implicated in fitness. Until a few years ago, the only athletes who took nutrition seriously were body-builders. Now, nutrition is an integral part of training in such activities as football, basketball, swimming, tennis and others. This is for a very good reason. Whether you are a world-class athlete or an exercise enthusiast, nutrition is fundamental to fitness. Specific vitamins, minerals, fats, and amino acid...

| Fatigue Nutrition Is The New Sports Nutrition |
| 2008-06-10 23:22:00 |
Today I am a proposing a new definition to the popular term Sports Nutrition. I would like Sports Nutrition to be called Fatigue Nutrition. Why? Because I believe that all endurance sports are based on the body’s ability to combat fatigue. I have been a runner now for 10 years and the most constant factor that affects my training and racing is fatigue. When the body and mind become fatigued only rest or nutrition can reverse the effects. Fatigue Nutrition is based on common sense and real life research. The common sense is eating a balanced diet consisting of non processed foods, fruits and vegetables. The research comes from 10 years of running and studying the great minds of endura...

| How does good nutrition support good hair growth |
| 2008-06-08 23:17:00 |
Protein is composed of the amino acids essential for the building of new cells, including hair. Five amino acids are of particular relevance to hair growth - cystine, cysteine, methionine, arginine and lysine. Inadequate protein intake over a lengthy period can force hair into the resting phase with shedding a few months later. It is obvious then that sufficient portions of protein rich foods should form part of your daily diet. The best sources of dietary protein are lean meats, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, soy, nuts, grains and seeds. At least 15% of your daily calories should come from protein-rich foods. 2. Eat adequate amounts of useful carbohydrates. Carbs are an essential source of energy and help in the gr...

Arthritis can happen at any age. Sore joints begin to limit the activities you enjoy. The knuckles on your fingers seem swollen, your knees and ankles seem to ache a lot, your back hurts when you wake up in the morning. Vitamin C is needed to make collagen, which makes up cartilage. Cartilage cushions bones, and not having enough leads to deterioration and osteoarthritis. Vitamin C is thought to play a role in treating rheumatoid arthritis because it battles free radicals that injure cartilage. The ratio of omega 3 to 6 to 9's is weighted towards the high end in most foods, but the body needs more 3's. These are the long chain fatty acids which help fight inflammation.

The health of your body will reflect in your skin. Skin is the largest organ in the human body so protecting it from the inside with a healthy diet makes perfect sense. The toxic by-products of energy production are called free radicals. They are chemicals with an unpaired electron absorbed into the body. Once there, they react with any structure in a cell, causing damage in the form of mutations leading to gene malfunction. These malfunctions can lead to vital functions being altered. The cell membrane is vulnerable to free radicals and the damage results in rigid, fragile and leaky cells. Antioxidants protect the cells from free radicals.

Good nutrition is critical if you play sports. Whether you're a "weekend warrior" or a professional athlete, nothing affects your ability to perform more than eating well. Properly fueling your body helps you establish desirable body weight, stay in great shape, and maintain those all-important nerve-muscle reflexes. And if good nutrition isn't part of your training program, physical conditioning and expert coaching won't make much difference to your game. There isn't one particular diet that's right for every sports enthusiast, of course. A lot depends on the age of the player and on the sport that's played. In general, however, a simple balanced diet allows your body's nutrients to work together like members on a team...

You may think you can read those labels, but there are some nutrition label facts you may not know. The following are just a few of these secrets of the food industry. Low Fat Means What? According to FDA rules, a product advertised as "low fat" must have 3 grams or less of fat per serving. The food companies aren't going to directly lie and get themselves in trouble, of course. If a product says "low fat," you can bet the nutritional label will say there are 3 grams or less of fat. The FDA rules, however, do not specify what a "serving" is. If the serving size chosen by the manufacturer happens to be a fourth of the amount you typically eat, then you may actually be getting 12 grams of f...

I can honestly say I felt at my best when I was in my thirties. I was physically, mentally and emotionally at my peak and firing on all cylinders. Since then, it's definitely gone down hill and I've lost plenty of brain cells and lean muscle. I haven't lost weight though as muscle has been replaced by fat - plenty of it. Over the years it's crept on. I've gained a pound here, a pound there, but regrettably haven't taken action to get rid of it straight away. Now over the past twenty years those pounds have turned into stones, so no prizes for guessing what my New Year's resolution was. I watched a programme on tv over the festive period which was probably cleverly scheduled to prevent people from eating too much over the Christmas break. It was about a poor man who had to lose 30 stone or ...
