Transcript What Is Optimal Health?

Optimal Health…..
for normal people!
- What is really happening?
- How to fix it with nutrition.
Let’s first look at your normal diet …
Assessment of Typical Daily Diet
Our aim is to provide you with some nutrition information tailored to suit your personal
needs. To achieve this, let’s first assess what your nutritional intake is now  Breakfast -Type of Cereal ?
-Fruit?
-Yoghurt?
-Other?
 Morning Snack
 Lunch
- Fruit
- Vegetables
-Carbohydrates
- Proteins

- How many cups of Tea and/or Coffee do you have in a day?
- No. of sugars?
- Milk - Full cream or low fat?
- Do you take supplements – Yes / No
- If yes, what do you take and how often?
Omega 6 / Trans fatty Acids
Pastries, Pies, Biscuits.
Butter. Margarine
Deep fried foods
Fast and convenient foods

Store-bought salad dressings
Yes / No
Omega 3
3 Servings of Cold water fish per week
Yes / No
Today we have a “Sickness Industry”
Western medicine treats symptoms, rather than preventing the
causes.
•
Heart Disease accounts for 39% of all deaths. Over half of all
heart attacks result in death before reaching hospital.
•
‘Cancer’ is one of our most feared words. Is it because we don’t
know if and when it is coming, and feel powerless to prevent it?
Cancer is responsible for 28% of deaths.
•
Diabetes has trebled in Australia since 1981. One in four adult
Australians now have diabetes or impaired glucose metabolism.
THE BIG QUESTION –
What can we really do to prevent the big 3 – (Cancer, Heart Disease,
Diabetes) and enjoy “Optimal Health”?
What Is Optimal Health?
 Jumping out of bed in the morning feeling
energised and ready for the day!
× Tired all the time
 No colds and flu’s, rarely get sick
× If it is going around, I catch it!
 Lowered risk of heart disease, cancer & diabetes
× Ever-increasing risk of major disease
 Ideal body weight
× Overweight or obese, just can’t lose it.
 No need for chronic (continual) medication
× Increasing prescription drugs for Fatigue, Stress,
Depression, Blood Pressure, Diabetes, etc.
Why do we have these problems?
There are two clearly identifiable causes
which we can easily do something about –
1.
Poor ‘cellular health’, which effects
-
2.
energy levels,
heart disease,
weight gain,
diabetes
‘Free radical’ attack, which effects
-
cancers
heart disease
1. Cellular Health
A healthy cell…
Nutrients are
absorbed
through the
cell membrane
for nourishment
Nucleus
Cell Membrane
-75% fat including
essential fatty acids
Omega 6 and Omega 3,
in the ratio
3:1
Waste products
leave through
the cell
membrane for
disposal
Mitochondria
When your cells are healthy your body is
able to function at optimal levels
1. Cellular Health
An unhealthy cell…
Synthetic Fats
harden the cell
membranes,
Nutrients are
not absorbed
as effectively
Cell Membrane essential fatty acids
Omega 6 and Omega 3,
in the ratio
20 3 :
Synthetic fats are ‘Trans fatty acids’,
90% of which come from our modern
processed foods.

Results of unhealthy cells Cell
becomes
malnourished
Craving for
carbohydrate
(often sugar)
Snacking,
and
over-eating.
Cell wall doesn’t
let enough food
in, leaving blood
with high sugar
levels.
Body stores ‘excess’ sugar as fat
Insulin overload & resistance
RESULTS - Fatigue
- Obesity
- Diabetes
Blood
Sugar
Insulin

Food!!
Food!?
Carbohydrate Spiking
More results of unhealthy cells…
• Cholesterol and fatty deposits spill over from cell into
the walls of the blood vessel wall as fatty plaques
(artherosclerosis)
Blood vessel
Clear blood flow
Fatty deposits in
the wall
• Blood Vessel wall gradually swells, reducing the blood
flow then eventually ruptures like a pimple which
suddenly blocks the blood flow.
Wall breaks and
fatty plaque blocks
blood flow
= Heart Attack!
2. Free Radical Attack
Pollution, Poor diet, High exercise levels, Smoking & Stress
produce toxins in our bodies. These toxins have to be dealt
with by the cells with a process that requires Oxygen and
Energy.
This process is called oxidation.
Oxidation produces Free Radicals, which are unstable
chemicals that have lost an electron. To stabilise themselves,
Free Radicals attack our blood vessels, our immune systems
and our DNA.
Normal cell functions are
disrupted starting the process
of HEART DISEASE and
CANCER growths.
Other processes may
begin including Premature
Ageing, Neurological
disorders, Emphysema,
and Cataracts.
Objective
1. To restore our bodies cell
membrane function by
restoring the correct Omega
6 : Omega 3 balance
to 3
:
1
Method
A. Cut out synthetic fats Processed foods & carbohydrates
such as most bakery items, most
cereals, all deep fried food,
biscuits, sweets, chocolate, potato
chips, etc.
OR
B. Reduce synthetic fats and
increase Omega 3 intake by
either
• Eating deep sea cold water
fish 3+ times per week OR
• Supplementing with Omega 3
2. We have to combat Free
Radicals with Anti-oxidants
Increase our Anti-oxidants • Fruit & Vegetables
• Tea, especially green tea
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Red wine
• Anti-oxidant vitamin
supplements – A, C & E
Getting Real…..
If we’re honest, most of us know that we are not going to:
•
•
•
•
•
Cut out all processed foods
Eat 5 serves of vegetables and 2 serves of fruit every day
Eliminate all stress
Eliminate all pollution
Eat 3 or more serves of cold water, deep sea fish a week
So, if we are to gain Optimal Health, (Feeling energised,
rarely get sick, low risk of heart disease, cancer & diabetes, ideal
body weight), we need to supplement our
• Nutritional
and anti-oxidant vitamins,
and our
• Omega
3 oils.
What type of Supplements, and why?
Several factors should be considered when selecting
supplements –
1. How much of the product is actually available to
your body – called “bio-availability”.
2. How much of the product can be absorbed by
your body before elimination.
•
•
•
Oxides or Compounds like Iron oxide have 20% bioavailability, of which 20% is absorbed. 4% total absorption.
Chelated vitamins have Amino Acids added which aids
absorption. They have 60% bio-availability with 40%
absorption. 25% total absorption.
Organic supplements are grown, not manufactured. The
whole natural plant is used, resulting in 90% bioavailability with 80% absorption. 72% total absorption.
Other advantages of ‘Organic’….
• No concentrated chemicals or pesticides
• Contain the whole plant concentrate – a large range of
phyto-nutrients. (Thousands of additional plant nutrients)
Advantages of Nutriway supplements
• The only global supplier of organic supplements.
• Standardised manufacturing practice.
• Independent laboratory testing and research.
• Ownership of the whole production process from soil to
tablet ensures control of quality. 72 year history.
• They work! They are totally guaranteed for 90 days.
Suggested Supplement Strategy
• Omega 3 – Deep sea fish oil to restore your cell
membrane function, protect you from heart disease and
give you energy.
• Organic Multivitamin (Double X) – To provide
anti-oxidant vitamins A, C & E to combat free radical
damage, and also provide all of the vitamins and minerals
which may be lacking in your normal diet.

A recent success story ….
Asafa Powell, who
clocks in at 9.74 seconds
in the 100 m, was
introduced to the product
by his older brother three
months prior to breaking
the world record.
"Taking Double X was the only change I made to how I
had been training," Powell confirmed. "After I started
taking it, I felt I had more energy to train harder and run
faster. I am very careful about what I consume so I
appreciate the balanced vitamin and mineral content plus
the rich, all-natural plant concentrates in Double X."
