If You Could Change ONE thing about your health what would it be?

If you could change ONE thing about your health what would it be?
 
I am sure you have been thinking about this.  What would it be?  What would be the ONE most important thing about your health you would like to change?

Do you believe our food provides all the nutrients our body requires?  Years ago maybe.  Now all you have to do is pick up a book, turn on the television, or read a scientific magazine and find the real truth.

Why is cancer, diabetes, asthma, heart disease, arthritis, and allergies ramped in our society just to name a few? 

The known fact is our food sources have changed in the last 100 years.  With technology comes the good and the bad.  The known fact is our environment has changed in the last 100 years.  This increases our exposure to free radicals.

“Free radicals are involved in the diseases and disorders commonly associated with growing older, arthritis, cancer, or heart disease plus many, many other diseases.  Free radicals can damage the body’s proteins and cell membranes weaken the cell’s natural defenses, disrupts cells DNA, and other essential body functions, that can lead to widespread biomolecular changes, leaving the body susceptible to many diseases.  Free radicals can be the sole cause of a few diseases such as cataracts or some cancers, but more oftenare involved inthe disease process by impairing the immune system and predisposing the body to diseases directly caused by other factors.  Free radicals also may worsen the conditions and be antagonistic to the healting process.” by Richard Passwater,Ph.D taken from the book Live Better, Longer.
 
Meeting the needs of your body is the most important responsibility you have in caring for yourself.  More later…..

Low Vitamin D levels may increase risk of depression in the elderly.

Research has shown that lower blood levels of vitamin D have been associated with the increased occurrence of elderly health issues. A new study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism (May 2010), followed the vitamin D levels of 531 women and 423 men, over 65 years of age, for a period of 6 years. Participants’ depressive symptoms were assessed (using the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale-CES-D). Those exhibiting lower blood levels of vitamin D (< 50 nmol/liter) scored significantly higher on the depression scale. The association between blood vitamin D levels and depression was also found to be more observable in women than men. Previous studies have supported the need for vitamin D supplementation for the physical health of the elderly. This study supports the need for vitamin D for their mental health as well.To read more on this study:
