EVERY now and again the question arises "Why do I need to take vitamins and minerals when I eat a balanced diet?" Short answer; there are remarkably few people who eat a good enough diet, with between five and 10 portions of fruit and vegetables every day, from a wide variety of local, seasonal, organic fruits and vegetables grown in nutrient-rich soils and pure water, that haven’t been picked too early, gas ripened, irradiated, shipped, placed in cold storage, left to sit on the supermarket shelf, or in your fridge drawer, and then cooked.
Add to that depressing list, there is a general increase in nutritional needs due to factors such as pollution, alcohol, stress and chronic disease, and that we are now constantly surrounded by electromagnetic energy from electricity, mobile phones and wireless computer systems.
So, all things considered, it makes sense to use at least a daily, quality multi-vitamin, to give what nutritionists describe as a "base level" of nutrition.
If you add into the mix of nutritional needs, serious medical conditions, you will want to improve the quality and check out the research behind any supplements you are taking.
One of the best companies in the market are Dr Wolz and I recently read a complete book from the company detailing the research about their yeast and oxygen-led products, designed to supply the body with numerous key vital substances which are critical for our health.
The concept of oxygen-starvation syndromes is gaining a great deal of interest in the health world and has been a major area of study for this company. Conditions which are believed in part to stem from oxygen starvation include cancer, late-onset diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, multiple schlerosis, Parkinson's disease, and coronary heart disease.
This kind of malfunction in oxygen-utilisation enzymes can also be seen in chronic fatigue syndrome, and some neurological conditions like seizures, ataxia (unstable gait), dementia, peripheral neuropathy, some eye issues like retinopathy, and even some kidney and blood disorders.
Researchers looking into ways to get around or overcome these metabolic problems affecting the mitochondria in the cells have been finding that food derived nutrients are the key, like co-enzymes, trace elements, bioflavonoids and anthocyanin’s derived from purple coloured fruit and vegetables.
The Zell Oxygen range has been developed to meet many of these needs and the new VitalKomplex provides a very intense supply of anthocyanins.
One of the other recommendations in the extensive research I read was, especially for cancer patients, to regularly consume freshly pressed organic beetroot.
Dr Wolz has developed a complete range to support many needs of cancer patients through nutrition, including a Ginger for nausea, Saffron + Rhodiola to combat depression, Green Tea, for oxidative cell stress, Curcumin to fight the inflammatory processes and the aforementioned VitalKomplex as a base layer of health supporting phytochemicals.
For further information I recommend you read more detail on www.wolzonline.com.
The company manufacture only products with ingredients that have been scientifically researched and which have proven effects. All the products contain natural, biological ingredients which are derived exclusively from natural sources and manufactured very carefully to ensure that no damage is done to these very delicate systems. The non-synthetic nature of these products enhances their absorbability.
Dr Wolz recommends these products to help prevent cancer, and for those currently undergoing treatment they advise you take Vitalkomplex or Zell Oxygen up to the night before treatment and as soon as you have finished, but not during, as most oncologists recommend no additional supplementation during chemotherapy.
They are a little expensive – for Zell Oxygen £16.99 and for Vitalkomplex at £32.95 – but what is your health worth to you? You can buy these direct from www.rossmorehealth.com, health shops and some pharmacies.
