Your HEALTH is as Important as Your LIVING.

"Health is not simply the absence of sickness."   What is the true definition of Healthy Living? It may sound absurd that we need to define Healthy Living. Although we all know what Healthy is and we also know what Living is. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being. Interestingly enough, health is not simply defined as just the absence of disease. The actual definition of Healthy Living is the steps, actions and strategies one puts in place to achieve optimum health. Healthy Living is about taking responsibility and making smart health choices for today and for the future.   Eating right, getting physically fit, emotional wellness, spiritual wellness and prevention are all apart of creating a healthy lifestyle. Since the entire YOU, meaning all aspects of one’s self, must work in harmony to achieve wellness, you need to put balanced energy into each aspect of yourself. To eat aright is more or less impossible with high preference to fast food and absence of essential food nutrients due to processing factors that strip off the major nutrients from our staples. Our physical appearance is a reflection of our state of health. Being overweight is an indication of a highly toxic body due to poor digestion and blood circulation and an inefficient defecation cycle. One of the solutions provided by the GNLD is to provide a supplement Tre-en-en which bridge the gap created in our diet. Hence, managing our health is essential to sustain ourselves, not just to look good but also for us to function at our peak while doing our daily activities.

NUTRITIONALS: What You Eat

“You are what you eat” is more than just a catchy phrase your mother used to get you to eat right. It is a profound truth.

In a world of fast food choices is it any wonder that our health is declining and the rate of disease is increasing? On any given day 95% of the population in North America will not consume foods which provide basic nutrients required for good health. On that same day 75% of the population will consume foods that will contribute to a decline in our health.

When you do not get what you need and you consume too much of what you don’t need you create nutritional gaps in your diet and expose yourself to the possibility of developing any number of diseases that are related to nutrition deficiency.

GNLD has developed nutritional products intended to help you fill the nutrition gaps in your diet.

 

As you investigate GNLD Products further you will not find “fad” or “hype” products. Why? Because for over 50 years GNLD has been researching and producing food supplements which are part of the human food chain. If the raw material components of our nutritional products are not recognised as having been safely used in the human diet, we will not use them in our Products.

Because your health is your most important asset, we take it seriously.

What is the Reason Behind Fiber Consumption?

 The importance of fibre in our diets is as important as the diet itself.

Are you aspiring for a healthy growth? Listen to what the experts say, “… a dietary intake of 20-35 grams of fiber per day is highly recommended.

A diet rich in fiber and low in fat is a key factor in promoting good health.

For years fiber has been associated with proper elimination and regularity of the bowel. High fiber diets have also been linked to reduced risk of heart disease, it impairs certain forms of cancer, diabetes, diverticulosis, and obesity.

To help supplement your diet, GNLD’s All Natural Fiber Food and Drink Mix and Vitality Multi Fiber Blend products provide a mixture of soluble and insoluble fibers from a variety of whole-food sources.

Both of these products can be mixed with your favorite drink or combined in foods to offer a simple, natural way to increase your fiber intake.

The Relevance of Vitamins to the Body's Health (Part II)

In a follow-up study, Dr. Zemel used obese subjects whose caloric intake was restricted equally—but this time half of the group added 1200 milligrams of calcium to their daily diet.

 The group with the calcium-enriched diet lost twice as much—10.9% of body fats versus 5.4%—as the group without the additional calcium intake.

 Dr. Zemel also found that calcium actually helps the body rid itself of fat cells through a process called apoptosis.

This can greatly impact one’s ability to keep weight off, says Dr. Zemel. “If those fat cells are still there waiting to store excess energy, it’s easy to gain the weight back again. If you get rid of the fat cells themselves, it’s much easier to keep the weight off.”

While nutrient-rich foods may be the best source for critical vitamins and minerals, most diets fall significantly short of the

recommended daily allowances.

Supplements help to fill in the holes. As Dr. Ames says, “Take a supplement … There is plenty of evidence that it’s good insurance.”

GNLD understands the nutritional gap created by most Western diets. Our quality products, including Super-B, Threshold Control, BComplex , Calcium, Chelated and Cal-Mag, can bridge the nutritional gaps in your diet while helping you to maintain a healthy body weight.

The Relevance of Vitamins to the Body's Health (Part 1)

New research indicates a link between sufficient vitamin and mineral levels

and losing and maintaining healthy body weight.

According to Dr. Bruce Ames, Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at the

University of California, Berkeley, and a researcher at Children’s Hospital Oakland

Research Institute (CHORI), satiety—when the mind tells the body to stop eating—
may be linked to nutrients.

“We know calories and exercise play a role—but I think there’s more to it than that,”

says Ames.

“There are some 40 vitamins and minerals that are essential to the human body. If you
sit down to a meal that doesn’t give your body the nutrients it needs, your brain is
likely to get the signal to go on eating until you get them.” This can destroy your
hypothalamus tissue.

The results of research by a team from the Fred Hutchinson, Cancer Research Center
are consistent with Dr. Ames’s theory. The Seattle scientists found a link between
weight maintenance and vitamins B6 and B12. Their research focused on subjects
between the ages of 45 and 55—a common age for weight gain.

They noted a significant correlation between weight maintenance and subjects who

supplemented their diets with B vitamins.

Considerable attention has recently been given to the impact Calcium has on weight loss,
as well. In an initial study conducted by Dr. Michael Zemel, Professor of Nutrition and

Medicine at the University of Tennessee, volunteers who followed an eating plan that

included two servings of yogurt a day lost 11 pounds of body fat during the year long
trial without reducing caloric intake.

Looking and Feeling Healthier.

Everyone wants to feel better. Looking and feeling healthier.

It All Starts With Your Cells!

Good nutrition begins at the cellular level! As each cell is like a miniature body able to take in nutrients and eliminate waste products efficiently.

Essentials of a healthy cell are phytolipids and phytosterols. These make cell membranes more pliable, allowing better absorption of nutrients and better elimination of waste. So, when their surrounding membranes are healthy

and flexible, your cells work more efficiently—and you feel more energized and experience better overall health.

Studies show that phytolipids and phytosterols helps in cancer prevention with equal ability to protect against
cellular damage. It improves heart health and overall cellular efficiency

The richest source of phytosterols are whole grains, including wheat, rice, and soybeans. But these critical nutrients are routinely stripped from whole grains during processing to avoid spoilage. Unfortunately, a longer shelf life means a seriously depleted nutrient value!

Consuming an optimal amount of phytolipids and phytosterols every day can be a challenge. Here’s the good news:

Tre-en-en Grain Concentrates can bridge the gap between what your body gets and what it really needs.

GNLD understood this 54 years ago, when we first used lipids to create our Tre-en-en Grain Concentrates. Still, it’s no wonder the awareness of the importance of lipids and sterols has grown significantly as research continues in this field.

Tre-en-en feeds your body’s cells with the whole-grain lipids and sterols they need with an exclusive wholefood

blend of wheat, rice, and soy.

For a healthier more complete nutritional profile, Tre-en-en puts back into your diet what modern food processing takes out. So enjoy the many health benefits science is proving again and again—from more energized cells to disease prevention—with the power of Tre-en-en.

Modern Medicine and Your Health

There is stress crisis all over the world. It leads to increase in researches to proffer solutions and better still prevent its lethal result.

Modern medicine is an industry that wants more, not less, disease to treat.  Yet, use some type of complementary and alternative medicine

Complementary and alternative medicine refers to a wide-ranging collection of medical and health care systems, practices and products that aren't generally considered conventional medicine.  They include vitamin and herbal supplements, meditation, chiropractic treatment and acupuncture.

In a U.S. government survey more than 23,300 adults were interviewed about their use of complementary and alternative medicine.  More than 9,400 were also asked about their children's use of complementary and alternative medicine.

It was found that the use of techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, massage therapy, and yoga increased significantly.  The most common supplements used by adults are omega 3 fats, glucosamine, and ginseng.

Other findings from the survey showed that more women than men use complementary and alternative medicine (42.8 percent versus 33.5 percent).  Older, more educated and wealthier adults also used complementary and alternative medicine in greater numbers.
People with adequate knowledge of food supplements prefer them to the use drugs and western medicine because of "frightening" side effects.

It is becoming increasingly clear that conventional medicine is working against the public welfare.  Let us embrace alternative medicine for its importance on health versus illness, prevention versus cure.  People are hungry for a holistic alternative in which they feel treated like people, rather than diseases.

As the public demand for complementary and alternative medicine grows, a new and different type of provider will emerge.  It is your job as a proactive individual to evaluate what is moving you toward better health, and what isn't -- and that includes your relationship with your doctor.
