CRITICAL NUTRIENTS MISSING FROM THE AVERAGE DAILY DIET...
Does your family receive the nutrients that are needed every day? According to the nation’s newest nutrition report card, many people are shorting themselves on vitamins C, E, and perhaps other essential nutrients. Nearly 95% of people in the United States are not getting desirable intakes of vitamin E from foods and beverages according to the most current federal nationwide food consumption data...
Furthermore, more than half of those in the study were not getting enough Magnesium, about 40% were not receiving enough vitamin A, and nearly one- third were not getting adequate intakes of vitamin C from the food and beverages. This study reviewed the survey interviews of nearly 9,000 individuals nationwide on their intake of foods and beverages. However, it did not review their intake of nutritional supplements.
AN OVERFED, UNDERNOURISHED POPULATION...
Although most Americans are overfed, they may also be undernourished. Selecting nutrient-dense foods which are a rich source vitamins, minerals and fiber, along with reduced calories, can provide the most nutrition for the least amount of caloric impact. “Fun foods,” like cookies and ice cream, should account for a small amount of daily calories. The problem begins when the pleasure-giving “fun” foods dominate the nutrient-dense calories. To help enrich the family's health, select a meal plan that offers foods from all of the major food groups with particular emphasis on vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
Believe it or not, the study found that 40% of men and 38% of women age 19 or older did not meet the requirements for vitamin C, which promotes immune function, wound healing and collagen formation. Good sources of vitamin C are oranges, broccoli, kiwi, and bell peppers. Another striking finding was that 93% of Americans are estimated to consume inadequate amounts of vitamin E. The main dietary sources of vitamin E are wheat, vegetable oils, nuts, and green leafy vegetables. Another surprise was that 56% of the population is estimated to not consume adequate Magnesium. Magnesium supports bone health and may reduce the risk of heart disease. Another mineral that is low in the American diet is Zinc. Studies have shown that one-third of people over 70 years old do not get enough Zinc. Found in beans, oats, oysters, and green peas, Zinc helps boost the immune system and may reduce cold symptoms.
Lastly, about one-half of women and 40% of men fail to get enough Calcium, which supports strong bones and teeth. Children and teenagers ages 9-13 years need 1,300 milligrams daily. Adults aged 19-50 need 1,000 milligrams daily. Those 51 and older need 1,200 milligrams daily. Moreover, approximately 15% of women 14-50 years old fall short on iron.
Increase Nutrient Density With Health-Building VITA-MAX!
Optimum nutrition is so much more than food to eat. Food and natural juices that contain a bountiful supply of nutrients can not only satisfy your appetite, but also protect against chronic diseases and keep you looking young. If you can’t get enough of the super-nutritious foods every day, be sure to boost your daily diet with the proper nutritional supplements. Here are some basic super nutrient food suggestions . . .
Antioxidant Super Foods
Antioxidants help prevent cellular damage. Eat plenty of foods rich in antioxidants such as bell peppers, berries, citrus, carrots, spinach and tomatoes.
- Eat your morning cereal with almonds or berries; add tomatoes to sandwiches, soups or stews; include sprouts to your whole grain bread sandwich with slices of peppers and fresh spinach.
- Enjoy a snack bag of nuts, baby carrots, grape tomatoes, and bell pepper slices for a nutritious pick-me-up between meals.
- Fruit and nut granola bars are great for quick energy and a healthy treat during the day.
Calcium
Calcium is the essential mineral that keeps bones and teeth strong. Now research shows that low-fat Calcium-rich dairy products also helps people lose weight! The most bountiful sources of calcium are yogurt, cheese and other milk products.
- Start your day with a bowl of whole grain cereal topped with skim milk and fresh fruit for a breakfast of champions.
- Snack on low-fat yogurt or cheese between meals for an energizing treat.
- Calcium-fortified juices and cereals are excellent alternatives to meet your 1,000 mg. (or more) daily requirement.
Fiber
Fiber does many healthy and wonderful things for the body, from naturally lowering cholesterol levels, keeping you regular, and perhaps preventing certain cancers. We need plenty of it each day.
- Carefully read food labels to select whole grain breads and cereals that provide 3 (or more) grams of fiber per serving. A bowl full of bran or high-fiber cereal is a great start to meet your daily needs.
- Load up on whole fruits and vegetables for a healthy dose of fiber. Five to eight servings a day is ideal! Juices don’t contain as much fiber as whole fruit.
- Beans are rich with fiber and vegetable protein, so include with soups, stews, salads, and omelette
Soy
Soy can effectively lower cholesterol, valuable for preventing cardiovascular disease. This super nutrient is an excellent protein source and is gaining popularity for its rich source of protective isoflavones.
- Tofu (from Soy) takes on the flavor of foods that it is cooked with. Try a stir-fry of healthy veggies and cubed tofu with a light Asian sauce for a quick meal. You can also find cereals with both soy and fiber. Serve with skim milk and you’ll get three super nutrients for breakfast.
- Enjoy a soy protein shake for a quick snack or lunch during the day. Soy nuts are another great convenient snack option.
- Edamame (Japanese green soybeans) are snacks that taste great. Find these nutritious soybeans in the freezer section of your supermarket. Serve them plain or with a low-fat yogurt dip.
Water
Most of us don’t get enough energizing and refreshing H20! As a result, we may look sluggish and feel fatigued. Our bodies are composed of more fluid than anything else, so water is an absolutely vital nutrient for our well-being.
Here Are Some Interesting Facts About Water:
- The body is 80% water.
- 98% of successful dieters use water to curb hunger pangs.
- 75% of the U.S. population are chronically dehydrated, which slows down the body’s metabolism.
- Adequate water removes harmful toxins from the body.
- Water regulates the temperature of the human body, transports nutrients and oxygen to the cells, cushions joints, protects tissues and organs, and removes waste.
- You should drink at least 8 glasses (8 ounces) of water every day.
Taking A Comprehensive Multivitamin On A Daily Basis Helps Keep You Strong and Healthy...
Even if you eat a healthful diet that is rich in vegetables and whole grains, you may still be deficient in many important vitamins, minerals and essential nutrients.
The Journal of the American Medical Association has recently reported that most people don't consume enough of the vitamins and key nutrients needed to stay healthy. It's very difficult to get all the vitamins and minerals required by diet alone, which is why all adults should take a comprehensive daily multivitamin.
A multivitamin provides extra insurance that you get all of the nutrients you need, especially on those fast-paced, busy days when you don't eat as well as you should.
Make sure your multivitamin contains at least 100% of the Daily Value for the majority of the basic vitamins and minerals. If you have difficulty swallowing pills and capsules, that's not an excuse to skip your multivitamin.
Now there is an excellent multivitamin, multi-nutrient supplement available as an easy-to-use drink mix powder called VITA MAX. It is a high-potency, full-spectrum multivitamin, superfood formula rich with antioxidants, enzymes, soluble fiber and whole food nutrients...

Despite Size, NFL Players Not More Likely To Develop Heart Disease, Even After Retirement
Former professional football players with large bodies don't appear to have the same risk factors for heart disease as their non-athletic counterparts, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have found in studying a group of former professional players from the National Football League (NFL).
Compared to other men in a similar age range, retired NFL players had a significantly lower prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, sedentary lifestyles and metabolic syndrome, the study authors report. The scientific findings appear in the September issue of the American Journal of Cardiology.
The researchers noted "Despite their large body size, retired NFL players do not have a greater prevalence of heart disease risk factors when compared to the general population. In fact, other factors such as age and high cholesterol levels were better predictors for heart disease than the body size of the former athletes in our study."
When body mass index (BMI) standards are applied, more than half of all professional football players are considered overweight or obese, which is considered an indicator for heart disease risk. Interestingly, although a majority of these players are not as fit and active after retirement, they still had fewer risk factors for heart disease than men of the same age and body size from the Dallas Heart Study, a groundbreaking investigation of cardiovascular disease that involves thousands of Dallas County residents.
Staying physically fit earlier in life might have offset the risks associated with a large body size. The study examined 150 former pro athletes and 150 normal counterparts from the Dallas Heart Study with an average age of 55. The median BMI for both groups was higher than 31, which is considered to be in the obese range.
Retired NFL players didn't get a totally clean bill of health, however. As a group they were found to have developed similar amounts of coronary atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) as the group of non athletes. Although they were less likely to have diabetes, they had higher rates of pre-diabetes, high fasting blood-sugar numbers that increase their risk for developing diabetes in the future.
The study authors' scientific investigation with a high-profile group could have far-reaching implications. More than 60 percent of offensive and defensive linemen at the high-school level, they note, also can be characterized through BMI as overweight or obese. "The good news is that as long as you remain active and fit, even with a larger body, you can lower your risk for heart disease," the doctors explained. "The bad news is that being a professional athlete doesn't eliminate your risk for developing heart disease later in life. Even professional athletes may be at risk for developing heart disease as they age."
The doctors concluded professional athletes should continue exercise regimens after their professional careers are over. For the public at large, the study reaffirms that exercise is an important way to decrease the risk for heart disease.
UTAH Southwestern researchers contributed to the study of as well as researchers from the Cooper Clinic in Dallas, the University of Washington, Emory University School of Medicine, the Baptist Cardiac and Vascular Institute, and the Living Heart Foundation.
