Supplementation

A strange as it may seem, a great deal of our aging and deterioration is actually due, in large part, to a deficiency of proper health and nutrients. As we age, our bodies are naturally going to slow down, thus making it more difficult to absorb the proper nutrient we need from our food, mainly due to weaker digestive system. Our immune system starts to weaken and slow, so as a result, we are not able to fight off sickness or rapid deterioration properly. So what are some of the avenues we can take to properly feed our bodies the nutrients they so richly desire? Here are a few options you can explore to implement health back into your diet:

Dark green vegetables- broccoli, spinach, blue algae, and kale are all vegetables rich in proteins, nutrients and calcium. These are a must have in your everyday diet.

Antioxidants- some people think taking vitamins is the best way to keep the antioxidants flowing, but actually a better way is by drinking ionized alkaline water. It is a fact that alkaline water provides your body and cells with much needed oxygen, which helps to boost immune system, keep you energized as well as helps detoxify your system.

Taking calcium and iron- calcium will help to strengthen your bone density while iron helps protect you from a protein deficiency.

Good exercise- it’s good to keep your calories and total acidic body fat down and your muscle mass up, and one of the best ways of doing this is through healthy exercise. Keeping your body in shape also helps to boost your immune system.

Take a multi-vitamin- you should really look into to this one, because there are a lot of vitamins out there that aren’t as nutritionally sound as many others. First, make sure it’s a vitamin that needs to be taken more than once a day, then find out the reputation of this vitamin. These multi-vitamins will help to supplement your body with a lot of much needed nutrients that you are missing in your everyday diet.
