American doctors are taught extensively, in medical school, about the treatment and curing of illness. Little of the formal education that our doctors receive focuses on prevention and avoidance of illness. As a result by the time that most of us go to the doctor we are already experiencing symptoms of illness. This may be due, in part, to the fact that some health insurance does not cover wellness care or annual physicals., only treatment for ailments after symptoms are apparent. It is up to the consumer to protect his own health and to do things that promote good health. There are many things that we can do on our own to help keep ourselves healthy. One of the most important areas to consider to promote good health, and avoid disease, is our diet. There is a lot of truth in the old saying 'You are what you eat'. Clearly, your muscles, blood, bones and tissue are all constructed out of the raw material that you give your body to work with. The better, or more suited, the food you eat is to the development of a strong, healthy body, the better body you will be able to build. The USDA Food Pyramid is a good place to start when deciding what foods to eat and in what proportion during your day. While it is not complete it does give a good blueprint from which to begin. The UDSA recommendation includes 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. While this may seem like a lot it is really not too difficult to consume this amount. Soups and stews can contain a variety of vegetables and one serving can satisfy a portion of the requirements. Instead of reaching for chips and cookies when we want a snack we can eat a piece of fruit which will further contribute to our meeting our daily requirement. Protein is important for our bodies to have each day as it is the substance out of which muscle tissue is made. When we don't get enough protein it negatively effects out muscle mass. While on crash diets our body can to start to consume some of the muscle that we have, as fuel. This can be dangerous as the heart and other organs are made up of muscle tissue. Good quality protein consists of meat, nuts and seeds. It is best to get organically fed beef and free-arrange poultry, whenever possible as these protein sources will contain far fewer hormones and other additives which are routinely a part of what we are consuming when we eat conventional meat. For those who are trying to reduce their meat intake, nuts and seeds can be good protein sources. Just be careful of your portions as nuts have a high fat content. Again, organically grown nuts and seeds are a better choice than conventional versions. Fats should make up about 1/4 of our diet. There has been a lot of talk lately about the prevalence of trans fat in the typical American diet. The best fat to consume seems to be extra virgin olive oil. It does not contain any trans fat and is actually healthy for your heart. Eating right undoubtedly will have a positive effect on your health, but it may not be enough. Additional support in the form of vitamins and supplements will further support the efforts begun by a good diet. A strong immune system, which is aided by a healthy diet and good supplementation is the body's first line of defense against illness. You can help support your immune system with supplements such as Immunitrilâ¢. Immunitril⢠is available from the Bodestore.com as well as Amazon.com. Its makers say that it will promote healthy functioning of the immune system and contains vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. Do a search on Amazon.com to find out more about this promising supplement. Whether through diet, supplements, or both, it is clear that the most important aspect of maintaining good health starts with what we put inside our mouths.
