Nutraceuticals Can Play a Vital Role in Your Health and Longevity

What are your best odds in this changing world?  The Coronavirus Pandemic has forever changed our lives and sensibilities.  Emphasized in its sudden crippling impact on the world, is the fact that life is one big game of musical chairs.  Our lives can change in an instant.  Any time you are caught at the top of your game -- in optimal health-- your odds of surviving and thriving improve exponentially. 

In this new world order, it is more important than ever to do everything we can to increase our odds of staying healthy.  Many of us are focused on sleeping enough, reducing stress, staying hydrated, proper hygiene, sanitation and food preparation, social distancing, eating nutritious meals and working out.  Is there anything else we can do to improve our odds of not being one more figure in those dreaded statistics?

As you probably know, having an underlying medical condition, or a compromised immune system, predisposes us to getting Covid-19.  If we are eating healthy food most of the time, are we getting all the nutrients we need?  The answer is probably not.  Even if we eat a well balanced nutritious diet, it is difficult to get 100% of our daily recommended micronutrients.  Micronutrients include vitamins and minerals which are not produced by the body but are essential to our health and wellbeing.  

If you are eating a well-balanced diet of whole foods, and avoiding added sugars and refined grains you are in the minority. The majority of Americans do not eat a healthy diet and thus predispose themselves to many chronic diseases such as diabetes, melitus, cardiovascular disease, cancer and osteoporosis.  According to the researchers at Oregon State University, ”approximately one-half of American adults have at least one preventable chronic disease.”  High rates of obesity in the U.S. are an additional concern.  More than a third of American adults, and 17% of children and teens, are obese.  

For many of us, the Coronavirus Pandemic of 2020 has made the stresses and challenges of our daily lives escalate to a fever pitch. Rather than giving in to lethargy and anxiety, we can be proactive in everything we do, beginning with our health.  After all, why would we leave the most fundamental aspect of our lives to chance?  As Chris Kresser of the Kresser Institute points out, the majority of Americans are “well fed but undernourished.” 

The reasons for this unfortunate statistic have to do with the popularity of processed foods, the prevalence of chronic diseases and declining levels of nutrients in our soils.  Vitamin deficiency can cause anemia, fatigue, a weakened immune system, impaired brain function, muscle weakness, bone loss, osteoporosis and blindness.  But what if we could take the possibility of having a vitamin deficiency off the table?  As a matter of fact, we can.  

Stay Healthy with the Best Supplements

One way to ensure you are getting all the daily vitamins and minerals you need is to supplement your diet with nutraceuticals.  Nutraceuticals are supplements composed of superfoods which have many health benefits, including the prevention of disease. If you want to feel better, look better, lose weight, age gracefully, feel stronger and more energetic, and increase your odds of being in optimal health, nutraceuticals can fill in the gaps in your otherwise healthy routine.  While there are many options out there, here at Golden Home Fitness we only offer the cream of the crop:  Isotonix and Transitions Lifestyle System.  These cutting-edge formulas promote maximal nutrition for optimal health and vitality.

Can taking any supplement give you the best odds in this changing world?  You might think a vitamin is a vitamin --just pop a pill and you’re good to go.  Unfortunately, your best intentions might, in large part, end up in the toilet.  The problem with basic supplements is an inefficient delivery system.  Because the vitamins and minerals in their tablets or capsules are not isotonic, they become diluted and their potency is reduced.  Isotonic means “having the same fluid pressure as your other bodily fluids like blood and tears.”  Everything we eat and drink needs to be isotonic before it’s nutrients can be absorbed and converted into energy.  

Unlike most products out there, Isotonix supplements are processed immediately, ensuring maximum absorption and potency.  These pure concentrations of essential vitamins and minerals are composed of top quality ingredients. Unlike most supplements, they contain no binders, fillers, coatings or lubricants, and are processed under the strictest of guidelines.  In addition, they taste great and are easy on your digestive system.

Superfood components of the Isotonix supplements available at Golden Home Fitness:

•  Resveratrol:  Resveratrol is a nutrient found in the skin of red grapes which has great cardiovascular and cellular benefits.
• Acai:  Acai are berries from a palm in the Amazon rainforest.  They contain protein, more than sixteen powerful phytonutrients and antioxidants (more than any other fruit or vegetable), and are good for proper muscle development and regeneration.
• Lutein:  Lutein is a vitamin which promotes healthy vision.
• Coenzyme Q10:  Coenzyme Q10 helps maintain normal blood pressure and blood sugar levels, supports muscle endurance and has antioxidant properties.
• Glucosamine:  Glucosamine promotes good joint comfort, fluidity and flexibility, particularly for those with, or at risk for, osteoarthritis.
• Bromelain:  Bromelain supports recovery and healing, especially after intense workouts. It promotes healthy joints and tissue repair and proper blood circulation, and has anti-inflammatory properties.
• Wellmune:  Wellmune is a natural yeast which supports a healthy immune system.  It helps to protect against the harmful effects of physical or lifestyle stress.
• BCAA’s:  Branched chain amino acids are the building blocks of protein.  They promote healthy muscle growth and retention.  They can lower or prevent muscle fatigue, and are especially important as we age.
• Folate:  Folate, along with vitamin B12, helps to maintain normal red blood cells.  Together they promote a healthy cardiovascular and nervous system, and they boost energy.
• Pycnogenol:  Pycnogenol supports cognitive health at every age.
