Modern day marketing would lead you to believe that taking massive amounts of single nutrients or foods (think \”acai berry\”) is a powerful way to improve health. Well, the reality is that your body best responds to combinations of foods and nutrients.
Unfortunately, advertising complete nutrition is not as profitable as advertising the next magic pill. But in reality, eating a wide combination of nutrients is what leads to maximum health.
So here are some nutrient combinations that will have a big impact on your health:
1. The power of the sun and milk: What I\’m referring to here is vitamin D and calcium. You see, if you are getting low amounts of calcium, vitamin D can help your body make the most out of what it\’s getting. So make sure you get plenty of vitamin D and calcium so that you never fall short here.
2. Salt and bananas: If you are like most people in modern society, you are getting too much salt in your diet. And too much salt leads to higher blood pressure-not a good thing. Now one way to lower levels of salt in your body is by eating bananas, or more accurately, potassium. You see, potassium causes your body to release more salt via urine.
3. Oysters and metal: Why do people claim that oysters are so good for you? Because they have zinc which is related to hormone production. Now zinc and copper (think \”metal\”) compete for the same absorption sites in your body. So make sure you don\’t over supplement with either.
4. Niacin and tryptophan: Niacin truly is a wonder supplement since it can increase good cholesterol and decrease bad cholesterol. The main issue, however, is that you have to take very large doses of it to see an effect. Tryptophan can be converted into niacin. So a good way to prevent niacin shortages is by having lots of tryptophan.
Now a key element here is to not suffer from paralysis by over analysis. You see, don\’t try to make all these changes at once. Add variety to your diet piecemeal in a manageable way.
And make sure you take action on this information sooner rather than later. After all, later usually never comes!
