Are You Suffering from Hidden
Hunger and Don’t Know It?
In today’s “eat and run”
lifestyle, a number people find themselves lacking in the proper
nutrition needed to keep pace in the 21st century way of life.
Does your busy lifestyle cause you to skip
breakfast, grab lunch from a fast food joint or how often do you pop
something in the microwave for dinner?
When your body does not receive the proper nutrition of fruits,
vegetables, proteins, and grains it is suffering from what Doctor
Victor Aquayo calls “Hidden Hunger”. Doctor Aquayo UNICEF’s
nutritional advisor for West and Central Africa states: “The hidden
hunger due to micronutrient deficiency does not produce hunger as we
know it. You might not feel it in the belly, but it strikes at the
core of your health and vitality”. It’s essential that your body
maintain a proper mixture of carbohydrate,
vitamins, proteins, fats,
water, and minerals to stay healthy. Foods lacking in any one of
these essential ingredients place your body in a state of
malnutrition, and makes it susceptible to disease and infections.
Here are some tips to keep your body from
suffering from Hidden Hunger:
Researchers are studying the cancer-resisting
potential of beta-carotene (vitamin A). The body converts the plant
pigment in apricots, squash and other yellow-orange fruits and
vegetables into vitamin A.
Did you know that fiber (roughage) does more than keep you regular?
Pectin, aids in preventing the development of gallstones and colon
cancer.
Fish are high in omega-3 fatty acids. People who eat salmon,
mackerel, and other fish tend to have lower levels of triglycerides
and cholesterol (blood fats implicated in heart disease).
The B’s (Vitamin B’s 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12) comes from the food source
of lean meat, green peas, legumes, collard greens, oranges, tuna,
eggs, nuts, whole grains, poultry, bananas, and dairy products. The
B’s helps growth and muscle tone, proper function of the heart,
keeps the lining of digestive tract healthy, and promotes healthy
skin, nerves and digestive tract. The B’s assists in the formation
of red blood cells and maintains a healthy nervous system. These
vitamins are essential for your body’s normal growth and
development.
Calcium is not only required for strong bones and teeth it’s
essential for normal muscle contraction and relaxation, heart
action, nerve function and blood clotting.
Chromium works with your body’s insulin to take sugar into the cells
it also contributes in the brake down of sugar to energy.
Zinc works with the enzymes in your body making reproductive
hormones and your sense of taste. A deficiency in zinc would slow
sexual development and loss of taste. It’s also a successful
treatment for asthma, bad breath, body odor, burns, wounds, and
stuffy nose.
With careful study you’ll learn how Vitamins and Minerals are
essential in keeping your body healthy.
Do yourself a favor, when your body is not receiving the essential
nutrients it needs from your diet, take a multi-vitamin (Vitacerin®.)
supplement once-a-day.
