How to Achieve Proper Nutrition with Vitamins and Supplements

Getting proper nutrition in today's fast paced society is almost impossible. Fast food restaurants push high fat, high carb, oil soaked burgers and fries, or highly processed sandwich meats with high salt content and artificial flavors. We lounge about in front of our televisions and computers for hours on end, without getting sunlight or exercise and then we wonder why decades later, we wind up with heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, arthritis, and a whole host of other serious or fatal diseases. We then spend tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars on medical care while our bodies become less and less healthy. We then wind up eating poor quality hospital food that's loaded in fats and nearly devoid of nutrients. Talk about setting us up for disaster!

It gets worse. Some hospitals now have fast food restaurants! HOSPITALS! How can anybody think this is a good idea? The problem has gotten so bad that the surgeons are doing quadruple bypass operations and then watching their patients eat a quarter pound bacon cheese burgers in recovery. These surgeons are pounding their fists in utter disbelief and even threatening to outright quit. Some undoubtedly already have. It kind of reminds you of the invasion scene in Saving Private Ryan where the combat medic heals a wounded soldier, only to turn around and have the now patched up soldier shot in the head? This is what fast food and our diets are doing to us, and with heart disease the number one killer in America today, this notion is truer today than it was back during World War 2. In 2002 alone, over half a million (500,000) people died from heart disease in America alone. The same number of American military and civilian deaths occurred during the ENTIRE SECOND WORLD WAR!

It is simply amazing how our lack of attention to nutrition has spiraled out of control. Pizza and soda machines are all too often becoming the norm in schools across the country. You can imagine the utter lack of vitamins and minerals that one gets from such foods (and the amazing amount of diabetes and obesity as well) - and we are regularly feeding our children and ourselves these sugary, empty calorie foods. This is not to say that a slice of pizza here and there is going to give us all heart attacks - but when you step back and take a look at our diets as a whole - it is plain to see that our diets are downright awful. Processed and bleached breads and grains convert quickly into sugar (they have high glycemic loads) and with all of the sweets and sugars we eat daily - there is no doubt that our increased sugar intake is rapidly causing diabetes levels - and obesity - to skyrocket.

We fail to get adequate calcium in our diets, so our bones become brittle and susceptible to osteoporosis. Pregnant mothers regularly fail to get adequate levels of folic acid, putting their babies at a high risk of developing nural tube defects. We fail to get adequate vitamin C and E levels and therefore we wind up with increased risks of developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, along with poor wound healing, compromised immune systems and decreased ability to combat DNA destroying oxidants. People, we are slowly killing ourselves, and its our own fault!

While our ancestors certainly did not have to combat pollution on a global scale, harvest crops they were grown on almost infertile soil with little to no nutrients, or eat animals that were saturated with antibiotics and hormones, they also did not have our advanced scientific research into just what the body needs to thrive and survive. The simply amazing thing about all of this? Getting the nutrition you need is cheap, easy and inexcusable for a world so advanced as ours. Back when wind powered sailing ships were the only way to cross the oceans, sailors regularly died from scurvy. Scurvy is the medical term for a severe lack of vitamin c. It was very often fatal on long voyages. The term limeys still refers to sailors to this very day because of the citrus fruits (high in vitamin c) that were brought on board to literally keep the sailors alive.
