A MAJOR SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGH IN THE AREA OF MICRO NUTRITION INCLUDING AMINO ACIDS AND BOTANICAL FACTORS THAT REGENERATE AND REVIVE HEALTHY CELLULAR ACTIVITY TO AID AND ENHANCE YOUR BODY'S HEALTH FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
While an apple a day might not keep the doctor away, research suggests that a diet containing protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and oils can help if combined with sleep, air, water, exercise and a highly active immune system.
In essence, the stronger your immune system, the more protected you are from infection and the healthier you are. If you eat foods rich in protective nutrients, you can strengthen your immune system to a point where you get fewer colds and viruses and be better equipped to fight off illnesses from colds to cancer.
However, with an average diet of coffee, fast food, snacks and sugars, our whole system of health is compromised which may explain why nerve, anxiety and digestive medications are the highest prescribed in the world. Later in life these and other diet related illnesses lead to death by heart attack, cancers and stroke.
Even when we try to eat well, we're disadvantaged. The nutritional content of most food has been compromised over the years, not only by deficient soils and modern production, transportation, storage and processing methods, but also by the enormous amounts of chemical and artificial substances added to promote growth, storage life, taste and appearance.
It's for this reason that more and more medical authorities are advocating the use of vitamin and mineral supplements. However, finding them in the right combination can be both confusing and costly.
Nutrition for your cells is a simple solution that offers excellent value for money and combines many of the known essential nutrients with a unique range of natural herbs to help cleanse and purify our bodies. Herbs have been used in China for thousands of years to maintain good health. While in Australia we spend millions of dollars a year on the treatment of heart disease and cancer, the Chinese have very little heart disease or cancer.
To understand how to get nutrition to our cells we need to understand that about every 3 days our body replaces most of its cells, and when the nutritional intake is adequate, the new cells are always healthier than the old.
For this to occur most effectively, we need balanced amounts of the six basic food groups every day……..
• Proteins; our organs deteriorate if they don't get an adequate supply. • Carbohydrates; are the body's preferred energy source to fuel cellular metabolism. • Fats; provide the most concentrated possible energy source within the diet. • Vitamins and Minerals; absorbed within five hours, they must be replaced daily. • Oils; preserve the structural and functional integrity of the cells.
Getting Nutrition for your cells performs these three functions:
MODERN LIFESTYLES PUT TREMENDOUS TOXIC STRAIN ON OUR VITAL ORGANS AND GLANDS.
The stomach is perpetually stuffed with denatured foods taken in incompatible combinations. The liver is swollen and strained with the effort of breaking down massive intakes of animal protein and fat as well as drugs and poisons, the pancreas balloons to abnormal size owing to the constant demand for digestive enzymes to process enzyme-less foods. The villi and microvilli break off and clog up and the colon gets lined with layer upon layer of glue-like crud that poisons the bloodstream.
Anyone who consistently breaks the laws of nature will ultimately be sentenced to chronic disease and early death by Mother Nature. Modern medicine may help you to live longer than your ancestors did, but not better! The number of people in their 50's and 60's with adult onset health problems that lead to heart attacks, cancers and strokes is staggering and unnecessary.
Unless you live an ascetic life far from civilization and avoid all dietary indiscretion, your blood and other tissues are bound to accumulate toxins and gradually lose their functional vitality.
If you don't purge yourself of these toxins on a regular basis, toxicity gets worse and worse, until the body can not stand it any longer and either purges itself spontaneously in the form of diahorrea, acne, pimples, boils, liver spots, foul perspiration, body odour, bad breath, and so forth, or else it simply gives up the battle and succumbs to degenerative fatal conditions.
One of the main differences between Herbalife’s nutrition products designed to get nutrition to your cells and other nutritional supplements is that supplements are rarely enough!
Simply consuming good food and adding nutritional supplements will not make any difference to the way you feel if your body is unable to fully digest and absorb all the nutrition you eat.
Herbalife’s nutrition products make use of knowledge gained from the botanical world's 6,000 year history. They incorporates health building nutritional herbs with the best modern technology to help our bodies cleanse and detoxify so that the cells - the tiniest living units - can be as fully nourished as possible.
This allows the cells to grow, repair and to perform their functions with the best possible efficiency so that we feel and look better and are more able to prevent and fight disease. Once the body begins to clear itself of toxins it can more efficiently absorb nutrition.
2. GETTING NUTRITION TO YOUR CELLS: Absorption
"Food molecules drift along the microvilli and are attacked by various enzymes until they're small enough to pass through the villi and into the bloodstream".
The chemical breakdown of foods begins in the mouth with the actions of enzymes in the saliva and continues along the digestive tract to the small intestine, where most "digestion" and absorption of nutrient molecules takes place.
The small intestine has a number of features designed to maximize its absorption capacity. The most obvious is its length. About 6.5 m (22 ft) long it is coiled upon itself and packed neatly into the abdominal cavity.
Its inside surface, about 3.8 cm (11/2 in) in diameter is folded and ridged to further increase the surface and absorption area. Close study reveals that these folds and ridges are covered with millions of tiny finger-like projections called Villi.
Seen under a microscope, the surface of the cells lining the villi display the individual absorptive cells bristling with even smaller finger-like projections called the microvilli.
If the small intestine were a simple, featureless tube it would have an inside surface area of about four square meters however the above features increase this to a staggering 250 square meters or more - greater in area than a soccer field.
During the digestive process the partly broken down remnants of food molecules drift along the microvilli where they're attacked by various enzymes until they're small enough to pass through the cells of the villi and into the bloodstream.
However much of the nutrition we eat never gets into the bloodstream because our villi are constantly being destroyed by salt, sugar, fat, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, chemicals, medicine, pollution and stress. The scientific term for the aftermath of this destruction is "energetically impaired" which simply means that the villi "break off" and become ineffective for optimum nutritional absorption.
Nature in its wisdom replaces the villi every three days, but due to our lifestyle and diet the replacements are poor facsimiles of the ones that break off. In about three days these are again replaced by substandard replicas and so it goes on.
It's a degenerative downward spiral that can just get worse as each new generation of villi are often just shadows of their former selves (similar to a tenth generation photocopy). With Herbalife’s nutrition products you've got a chance at stopping the negative progression of the cells and reversing them back to master copy quality.
Getting nutrition to your cells helps to rebuild and regenerate the villi so that there's more surface area for the nutrients to be absorbed.
3. GETTING NUTRITION TO YOUR CELLS: Cellular Regeneration
Once the body has cleaned itself of toxins and poisons and rebuilt its capacity to absorb food then we give it nutrition for the cells. Herbalife’s nutrition products program has a total balance of what the body needs on a daily basis in a form that is delivered to the basic building blocks of the body, the cells, quickly and easily.
This gives the quickest way the body can rebuild its strength and health. The stunning result with so many health problems that comes with using Herbalife’s nutrition products is not because our products heal the body but because the body is given the tools to heal itself with Nutrition for your cells.
