I have been involved in nutrition on a personal level for many years and made some amazing discoveries. First of all we have to understand how nutrition plays a vital part in the human body and not only the everyday maintenance of health and vitality but also the very creation of new cells for growth, repairs, cellular defense of vital processes. All in order to maintain health and life in the human body. 

We don't put enough importance on maintaining that health. Or vitality so necessary to continued  quality of life. 

Did you know heart attacks may not just be from high cholesterol or stress? It may simply be a lack of vitamins and/or minerals?!* 

I know, because I had a close brush with death and it left a strong, uh... impression on me. Over the years I had begun to gain weight. But because of injuries to feet and knees was not able to exercise as much and so I resorted to extreme diets. A new one I tried was the "Water Diet". Back then the author of this didn't specify you first have to bring up -seriously- your vitamin and nutritional levels. I had been eating sweets for a week but I didn't think  that much as I was really big on vegetables and fruit.
Certain groups believe that refined sugar leeches vitamins (literally) from your body** although I didn’t know that then. When this happens your body is in 'nutritional distress' and you may not know it until its too late (if you were like me and didn’t read the ‘signals’. For me it was almost too late). 

I went on this ‘Water Diet' as it was called and, unknown to me, my body was already in distress and this was the last diet I should have been on. I’m not saying it was a bad diet. It was just a bad time for my body as I was to learn later. 

Takeaways
  • Always keep your nutrional levels above ideal if possible before any diets
  • When choosing vitamins are minerals choose liquid or sprays over tablets
  • When increasing your consumption of water make sure its pure clean water
Did You Know?
If you drink enough water -daily- you can virtually eat whatever you want
