Filling the nutritional gaps which exist in our diet through nutritional supplement is mandatory because lifestyle and diet influence our DNA and also to provide adequate high quality nutrients to our body system to minimize age-related decline in brain skills, eyesight, hearing and so on. The best way of gauging decline in health is by comparing you current health status with what you were like 10 or 20 years ago. This is specially true of those who are 35 or above because many of the biological activities begin to decline from the age of 35 or before, for example 90% of the peak bone mass is acquired by age 18 in girls and age 20 in boys, brain health peaks at age 20 and then begins to decline in fact, by age 40 brain begins to lose 10000 cells every day. What this means is young age is the best time to invest on health.
Keeping the brain healthy is critically important to prevent decline in mental performance as you age. Normally exercise and mental activity are considered important to maintain the agility of the brain but dietary modification and supplements of late have generated considerable interest.
University of South Florida (USF) scientists discovered that supplements containing blueberry extracts along with green tea, vitamin D3 and amino acids helped increase the speed with which older people processed information. Blueberry extract was of special importance because it contains antioxidants. Antioxidants play an important role in brain health because damage to brain cells are more when there is a decline in natural antioxidants in our physical system and like all things related to health with age there is a decline in the production of antioxidants in our bodies as we age
Nutrilite Fruit and Vegetable Concentrate contains blueberry extract therefore adding one Fruit and Vegetable Concentrate tablet on a regular basis can provide the ingredient to maintain the cognitive health of brain.
Note: Dietary supplements fill the nutritional gaps in the diet which we take on a regular basis. Nutritional gaps arise because of:
- Limitations of tradition and customs in food choice and preparation.
- Lack of variety and non availability of rich nutrients from rare plants on a regular basis.
- The pH balance of soil getting disturbed because of overuse of the fields, use of fertilizers, climate change, water logging and so on leading to deficiency of very vital minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc and so on in the soil.
Therefore it is necessary to improve your natural diet and use dietary supplements to make it wholesome by filling the nutritional gaps. Dietary supplement cannot compensate for poor diet. Also be physically and mentally active.
