Importance of Water

Is drinking enough water really Important?

Water the a need for every human being. Every person on the earth needs good, clean and safe water. Nearly, 70% of body weight is of water. Water helps to form the structure of protein and glycogen, which means that water is the source that carries nutrients to our cells in each part of our body and also help to transport the waste out of the body.


Benefits of drinking more water:

  • Drinking more water early in the morning, looses more body weight. The water consumption should be consistent throughout the day. The water flushes out the by-products of fat breakdown
  • Helps in building muscles
  • Cushions muscles and joints as water works as lubricant for joints
  • Looses more calories
  • Body metabolism increases
  • Helps reduce blood pressure and reduce high cholesterol
  • Helps proper functioning of the kidneys
  • Could lower the risk of developing kidney stones and gallstones
  • Regulate the internal temperature of the body
  • Reduce the chances of heart attack
  • By flushing out the impurities in the skin leaving behind clear and glowing complexion
  • Makes you look younger
  • Flushes the toxins out of the body
  • Reduce the risk of diseases and infection
  • Our brain tissue contains about 85% water. Drinking water regularly will keep the brain functioning properly. In some cases, headache, fatigue and back pain may be caused by dehydration. This can be cured by drinking more water.
  • Drinking more water reduces hunger. Drinking water before regular meals cuts down the hunger and hence food intake
  • Metabolism is the means by which the food we consume is turned into energy. The digestion process will prepare the nutrients in the food to be absorbed by the body and transformed into energy. Drinking plenty of water is essential to maintain a good digestion which in turn keep your metabolism going. The health benefit of water is better utilization of the nutrients you consume resulting in more energy.
  • Its better to avoid drinking water 2-3 hours before you go to bed.
  • A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger short term memory, trouble with basic math.

Hot water is better than Cold water

It is nice to have a cup of warm water after a meal. However, the warm water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid in the stomach, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer.
Hence, it is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.


ARE YOU DRINKING THE AMOUNT OF WATER YOUR BODY NEEDS ?

Nutrilite Protein Powder

What is Protein? Why do we need Protein?

Proteins are needed for growth, maintenance of the cells and also to repair any damaged cells in our body. Protein is vital component of muscles and tissues. Protein is required to build stamina and resistance to an individual as it generates antibodies which fight against illness and infection.
Protein plays a key role in making our bones strong and healthy, strong and healthy hair, fresh skin and healthy nails. In fact, 20% of our body weight is Protein itself. Our body doesn't store protein for later use.Imagine a room - the walls of the room are made of bricks. Now imagine these walls to be protein walls and the bricks that make these protein walls are amino acids. Like bricks make the wall and the walls make the room... Amino acids make proteins and proteins make our body.Protein is made up of Amino Acids. But no single food item contains all the amino acids that the body needs. There are 22 different amino acids that are required to have a healthy body. The 22 amino acids are categorized into:
1. Non-essential amino acids - The 13 non-essential amino acids can be manufactured by the body itself.
2. Essential amino acids - The 9 essential amino acids have to be taken from the food we take as these cannot be made by the body itself.
The Protein sources like red meat, chicken, fish, egg etc,. are high in essential amino acids but they are high in saturated fat too and low in fiber. The protein sources like Fruits, vegetables, beans etc., do not always have all the essential amino acids.Soy flour is extracted from natural Soy has only 40% protein and does not have all 9 essential amino acids in appropriate quantities.

Testimonials of Nutrilite Protein Powder

My father Mr.C. Rajmohan aged 61 has diabetes from the age of 25. We have tried all sorts of medicines to keep his sugar level down. But inspite of all the medicines and strict diet his sugar level has never come down below 200. It always used to be above 250. In his LIFETIME it has never come below 200. This was always a bothering factor for my family members. In a PASE meeting we learnt that our NUTRILITE PROTEIN POWDER is! sugar f ree and can be taken by sugar patients. They also said that it helps in INSULIN secretion in the body and thereby maintains sugar level. They also recommended a specific usage pattern for that. Hearing that it rang a bell in my mind, and the last time I went home I gave my dad a protein powder and asked him to take it regularly as suggested*. I also followed up every week to see if he is taking it continuosly. After just 2 months (even less than that) of usage his sugar level dropped down to 140 which is his LIFETIME LOW as a sugar patient. I could hear his excitement in his voice when he called me and said he has never seen this happen for him in his life time and he was literally jumping up & down. So, now he has reduced his tablets and leading a healthy and happy life. Again, Thanks to NUTRILITE.

*Suggested use of protein powder for diabetic patients: 1/2 a scoop in the morning, 1/2 a scoop in the afternoon, 1/2 a scoop in the evening and 1/2 a scoop in the night. This ensures that the INSULIN level in the body is maintained through out the day so that the sugar level reduces. Please have Daily also along with it.                                                                                                                     Aravinth & Shakti.


My mother had health problem for more than 2 years now. I have visited lot of big hospitals in Hyderabad and consulted very good doctors. She has been taking lots of medicines as per their prescription. The actual problem is not solved yet, but in turn she has become very weak and facing lots of side effects of those medicines. Because of these continous medicines she had started loosing stamina and developed shivering as well. She was also slowly loosing her digestion capability. I was very much worried about my mothers health. Thats when one of my friends has suggested me to take Nutrilite Protein Powder and few other Nutrilite Products as well. I know Nutrilite is good, but was hesitant to take all those, as she is already taking lots of medicines. But I have dared to give my mother Nutrilite Protein Powder. I made her use the powder for a month now. I find really very good improvement in her general stamina. She is feeling better now. I am very happy. I am planning to consult our doctor again to reduce the medicine intake and take Nutrilite Daily also. Thanks to NUTRILITE.

I have taken Nutrilite Protein powder as somebody had suggested that to me. But my son being a doctor stopped me from having it. My husband who works in a remote village also asked me to avoid those kind of suppliments. After few days, my son started going to gym. When he needed some protein diet, instead of spending some additional money, he started taking Nutrilite Protein Powder. He was impressed after a week days of usage. He suggested the same to his father, who had few scars over the palms because of the impure drinking water in the village. Just after 1 week of usage, we are really surprised to find that all the scars which were there for more than 2years disappeared. Now all of my family are happy using it and we started suggesting the same to others as well

At NUTRILITE, it provides a wide range of food supplements. These food supplements can be categorised into, three steps for good health, to be taken regularly

  • NUTRILITE Essential supplements - This includes single vitamins and minerals which provide additional amounts of these nutrients to fill the nutritional gaps out of life stage and life style habits.
  • NUTRILITE Lifestyle supplements - These enhance and support various functions and systems in the body and can be integrated into a daily supplementation program.
    The Life Style Supplements are normally herbal supplements.

Ingredients of our Food

When we take food, it starts being broken down by your teeth and the enzymes in your saliva. Digestion begins. Then the chemicals in your stomach work digesting the food into its six nutrients categories.
  • water
  • carbohydrates
  • Fats
  • Proteins
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals
Out of these only carbohydrates, fats, proteins provide energy.

Nutrients
Nutrients are components of food that are needed by the body inadequate amounts to grow and lead healthy life. An essential nutrient is a nutrient required for normal body functioning that either cannot be synthesized by the body at all, or cannot be synthesized in amounts adequate for good health. Thus these essential nutrients must be obtained from a external dietary source.

There are two types of Nutrients.
  • Micro nutrients
  • Macro nutrients
A balanced diet contain both macro and micro nutrients

MicroNutrients - Micro nutrients are nutrients needed for life in small quantities. The Micro minerals include iron, cobalt, chromium, copper, iodine, manganese, selenium, zinc and molybdenum. They are dietary minerals needed by the human body in very small quantities (generally less than 100micrograms/day).
Micro nutrielts are things like
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals.
MacroNutrients - The chemical elements humans consume in the largest quantities. They provide energy to the body and enable the cell to grow. These are compounds humans consume in the largest quantities and which provide bulk energy.
Three main macro nutrients are
  • Carbohydrates
  • Fats
  • Proteins
Water and atmospheric oxygen also must be consumed in large quantities, but are not always considered "food" or "nutrients".

PhytoNutrients -These are plant based nutrients. These are found only in fruits and vegetables and plants based diet as there are thousands of phytonutrients supplied in a plant-rich diet. These are not found synthetically. Phytonutrients are found in plant-based food sources, including brightly-colored fruits and vegetables.

Nutrilite

There are numerous companies which supply dietary food supplements in the wellness industry. 

The pioneer in the history of nutrition is NUTRILITE™, which introduced multivitamin/multi mineral supplement to the world. The founder of NUTRILITE™, Mr. Carl Rehnburg, in 1927 observed that the urban people showed terrible sign of malnutrition but this malnutrition was not as wide spread among the poorer citizens in rural areas. He began to study the relationship between health and nutrition and realised that there were many plant based substances critical to human diet.
After years of research, he came out with his company called California Vitamins and produced the first multivitamin/multi mineral supplement in 1934. The company was changed to Nutrilite in 1939.

The basic idea at Nutrilite is that all of the factors required in nutrition are nearly always found in plant substances.”
-Carl Rehnborg, 1955
What makes NUTRILITE supplements different from others are the exclusive Nutrilite Plant Concentrates. 
The reason is not just one thing but a combination of many elements 

These includes 
History of industry leadership
Its organic farming practices
Its commitment to scientific research
Its superiority of concentrates

It releases good bugs in the farm like lady bugs, bumble bees and butterflies to eat away the bad worms and bugs in the plants.

7.  The Nutrilite Health Institute is at the forefront of a new scientific discipline: Nutrigenomics – the science of how our genes interact with nutrients. Nutrigenomics will soon make it possible for individuals to know their potential risk for certain health-related conditions – through DNA analysis. Eventually, they hope to be able to precisely tailor diet and supplement recommendations to address individual personal risk for many health-related conditions.

Sickness Vs Wellness

Modern medicine is now facing the need for a total paradigm shift in its thinking. Years of treating sickness and symptoms rather than promoting wellness and finding causes have led to an urgent need for all of us to take greater responsibility for our health. We need to move from a 'sickness and cure ' view to a 'wellness and preventing' view.

There are among other things, 13 essential vitamins required to maintain good health that generally cannot be produced in our body itself. These vitamins have to be taken in our daily diet. These vitamins can prevent diseases. These can built enough resistance in our body. These can make us better.

If one has deficiency of Iron, over a period of time, it causes anemia. This causes weakness in our body and when we approach a physician for this he prescribes us among other things Iron content. In take of the medicines gets back the iron in our body. This is curing a problem after it has occurred. Sickness is curing after a disease has occurred. - Sickness Industry

If we have good quality food which has enough quantity and quality Iron in it, we may not even have to approach a physician. As this kind of good quality food is normally out of reach, a supplement rich in iron will do. This is preventing a problem even before its occurance. - Wellness Industry


I started taking glucosamine and the pain in my knee disappeared within two months. One year later the same orthopedic surgeon asked me who had operated on me knee. When I told him about the glucosomine, he took some X-rays and asked me not to publicize my experience, as it could put him out of business. I was amazed that I, an economist, was teaching an orthopedic surgeon about glucosomine.
- Paul Zane Pilzer, economist
Author of 'The Wellness revolution.'



The wellness revolution is based on giving the body what it needs to support optimal health and quality of life.

Why do you need food supplements?

When we feel hungry and take food,

1. we take too much of food. -Over eating - when the daily intake of food exceeds the requirements, the body converts the excess calories into Fat. the excess of fat is associated with fatigue, heart disease, cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

2. The normal food we take does not contain the required building blocks or catalysts,(lacking nutrition) hence imbalance in the quality of food.

You need good quality of vitamins, minerals, proteins and carbohydrates to lead a hassle free good health. In the present scenario, when everybody is busy doing what they are doing for their living, not many care about the quality intake. We just take some food and rush to our work. Whether it is a student or a job holder or a business man its the same. Hence, we are missing required ingredients in our food.

Apart from the above, we are in dire need of food supplements because,

The life style changes - The Life style of people has changed over a period of time. Please are spending more time sitting at the desk, in a car, infront of TV, in front of computer, eating out at restaurants, eating more of fast foods and junk foods, staying up late and not having enough sleep at night, having untimely sleeps and many more things like this.

Lack of proper Exercise - Not everybody prioritise their time to have enough physical and mental exercises.

Raise in pollution levels - Air pollution levels have raised over last 10 years. This results in unhealthy breathing air. Its not an exaggeration to say that its time when we need to buy some fresh air to breath for good health.

Increase in Chronic diseases - The raise in the chronic diseases is because of the life styles and stress in the day to day life

In Short, You need food Suppliments if...
  • You Don't have  pollution free environment
  • You don't have time to exercise regularly
  • You have untimely or less sleep 
  • You have regular eat outs or skips meals
  • You are stressed out at work
  • You are not getting a good quality of food

What does your food contain?

The food we have normally contain three things

Energy: This energy lets us do our regular work on daily basis.

Building blocks: These blocks contain proteins, amino acids and most minerals used for building blood, skin, bones, hair and internal organs

Catalysts: This consists of all the vitamins, enzymes and some minerals which convert food into energy.

We feel hungry when we lack the required energy and hence we take high energy food. But, unfortunately, we will never feel hunger for Building blocks and catalysts till we are ill.

Health

Good health. The term itself is very rare these days...

it not just includes good food habits, it also includes right thinking.
 
Getting a quality intake has become next to impossible, considering the pollution around, the poor manufacturing practices and maintaining the freshness before it reaches our mouth. 
    This has brightened up the food suppliments market as such.
