 “BioNutrients” - Nutrition, Diet & Supplements

 

Nutrition repairs, replenishes, regenerates, and rejuvenates to your full potentia.

Effective lifestyle improvements will accelerate your results and speed your time to rejuvenate,  help your body regain its natural balance—and start taking steps toward true health and vitality.

Macro-Nutrients

The macronutrients are carbohydrates, fats, protein, and water. The macronutrients (excluding fiber and water) provide structural material (amino acids from which proteins are built, and lipids from which cell membranes and some signaling molecules are built) and energy. Some of the structural material can be used to generate energy internally, and in either case it is measured in Joules or kilocalories (often called "Calories" and written with a capital C to distinguish them from little 'c' calories). Carbohydrates and proteins provide high kcal of energy per gram, while fats provide les  per gram, though the net energy from either depends on such factors as absorption and digestive effort. Vitamins, minerals, fiber, and water do not provide energy, but are metabolic required.

Trace minerals

Many elements are required in trace amounts, usually because they play a catalytic role in enzymes.

Trace mineral elements: 

  • Cobalt required for biosynthesis of vitamin B12 family of coenzymes. Animals cannot biosynthesize B12, and must obtain this cobalt-containing vitamin in the diet

  • Copper required component of many redox enzymes, including cytochrome c oxidase

    Chromium required for sugar metabolism

  • Iodine required not only for the biosynthesis of thyroxine but also for other important organs as breast, stomach, salivary glands, thymus,

  • Iron required for many enzymes, and for hemoglobin and some other proteins

  • Manganese (processing of oxygen)

  • Molybdenum required for xanthine oxidase and related oxidases

  • Nickel present in urease

  • Selenium required for peroxidase (antioxidant proteins)

  • Vanadium required for some lower organisms.

  • Zinc required for several enzymes such as carboxypeptidase, liver alcohol dehydrogenase, and carbonic anhydrase.

Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and Proteobacteria.

 

Antioxidants  substances that protect your cells against the harmful effects of free radicals. They have a negative charge so they can hunt down, stabilize and neutralize the positively-charged free radicals in your body. An overabundance of free radicals in the body is linked to disease and illness.

 

Antioxidant Vitamins and Minerals:

  • Ionized alkaline water! Water ionizer produce antioxidants through the electrolysis process. 

  • Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, found in spinach, liver, sweet potatoes, carrots, mozzarella cheese, egg yolks and milk.

  • Vitamin E: fat-soluble vitamin, found in pine nuts, tomatoes, vegetable oils, walnuts, wheat germ, almonds, olives, peanuts, avocados, liver and leafy, green vegetables.

  • Beta-carotene: papaya, pumpkin, apricots, carrots, winter squash, peppers, spinach, kale, mangoes, cantaloupe and sweet potatoes.

  • Lycopene: antioxidant found in tomatoes, watermelon, grapefruit, asparagus and cabbage.

  • Selenium: mineral antioxidant properties, seafood, chicken, brown rice, beef, pork and whole-wheat bread.

 

 

DETOX

 

 The liver has to work overtime and all that nutrition that you take in, whether food or supplements,

is now used to detox again what was already on its way out, instead of that nutrition going towards long-term healing, growth, repair, and long-term function.
