Think of celebrities (Arnold Schwarzenegger,
professional boxers, Olympic Stars, major league baseball players, NFL players,
etc.). When you see them today, long past their prime years, can you tell they
were once svelte and lean or do they look like most everyone else their age? Do
they live longer, have fewer ailments and still have a bounce to their step?
However, look at those people who, for most of
their lives, ate nutritiously and took good nutrient formulations (not the
Madison Avenue hyped junk). Compare them to the group in the previous paragraph
and what do you see? These people are healthier, more alert and more in tune
with their surroundings and still look fit and trim. That’s because exercise
produces a momentary effect that will fade almost as quickly as the stoppage of
the effort but the positives of nutritional input will endure and continue to
maintain a strong nutritional status, which is the essence of better health.
The building of one’s body via exercise will
certainly yield a visible and real result (albeit temporary) when measuring
stamina, strength, waistline, biceps and flab. On the other hand, the
maintenance of the internal aspects of the body (biochemical pathways, organ
tissues, brain health, etc.) will sustain a body for a very long time because
the foundation is built from solid and understandably beneficial pieces, the
nutrients needed to establish a biological foundation that allows the body and
mind to thrive and continuously handle the many inevitable insults such systems
must fend off.
While no one knows beforehand the length of
anyone’s life, what can be predicted with rather good surety is the quality of
life. We know that over 85% of all illnesses have a major malnutrition
component so maintaining an elevated nutritional status (it is not related to
exercise*) is the best way to avoid diseases and ill health.
And, according to the American Cancer
Society, nutritionally strong people can better prevent sun-induced skin cancer
(as well as other cancers).
*In fact, exercise produces many damaging and destructive free radicals. Proper nutrition provides the uniquely packaged, made-by-nature anti-oxidants needed to negate and destroy those free radicals and such a nutritional approach is the only way we know to provide such protection. Today we do not rely on food for our nutrients because of the negative things they do to our food before we get it. We rely on food for calories, bulk (fiber), fluids, the physiologic need to chew, taste and socialization at mealtime. We rely on the proven nutritional formulations for the tens of thousands of nutrients (there are over 8000 nutrients in a single apple) we need on a regular and continuing basis.
