How Nutrition Can Change Your Life!

By: Dr. Alan Rosenthal

It is becoming common knowledge that good nutrition will make positive health changes in people’s lives. Two research articles that I had read recently showed that the positive health effects of supplementing folic acid and vitamin D. It explained how folic acid supplementation during pregnancy will reduce the risk of having a Down’s Syndrome child and how vitamin D supplementation improves the outcome in prostate cancer patients.

Approaching Research and Nutrition

We will continue to see many more articles over the next few years on how more and more components of nutrition will allow us to have a higher quality of life and quantity of life. However, it is important to keep in mind that supplementation is only an added benefit to a healthy diet and exercise. Take one supplement because it shows to help one thing is a very narrow focus on what these new findings should be doing for us.

The smartest approach to nutrition and health is to realize that all parts of good nutrition are good for us. New research exists to show us that if we concentrate on good nutrition, we last longer in this world and have a higher quality of life during the journey.

Should Everyone Take Vitamin and Mineral Supplements?

With the over abundance of studies showing the benefits of nutrition and the proof that there is a lack of these nutrients in the average American diet, then virtually every person in our society would live a better and longer life if he or she included nutritional supplementation in daily life.

To go one step further, a nutritional analysis can help people in learning what larger groups of nutrients they are lacking in life. Not only will it allow you to know what type of supplementation is best for you, but it will also enable you to make simple lifestyle changes and develop habits that will increase your energy and make you feel better each day.

Finding a balance between proper nutrition and supplementation can help a person discover his or her own path to health and wellness.
