People commonly
use the expression that the "playing field has
changed" when talking about how changing certain factors or
circumstances results in a different outcome or effect.
And the playing
field has radically changed concerning our food supply.
The processing of
food to transform it from Nature (like grains, fruits and
vegetables) to "something-in-a-box" has resulted in so-called food with little or none of its naturally
occurring nutrients. So it doesn't provide us with the fuel our
bodies need to function properly, to feel right or to fight off
illness and disease.
It goes even further back
The playing field
has changed with our farming practices, too.
Failing to rotate
crops, bioengineering efforts, use of pesticides and herbicides
and now genetic modifications (GMOs) have resulted in produce
that is not only less tasty and less nutritious than it was in
our grandparents' day, but can be downright dangerous!
For example, there
are more than 500 chemical pesticides routinely used in
conventional farming, many of which are toxic to our nervous
systems, disrupt our endocrine systems and can cause
reproductive abnormalities, like sterility and birth defects.
Plus, the way our
wheat is harvested has resulted in nearly double the amount of
gluten than the wheat of just 100 years ago...and we're paying
the price with cases of gluten related illnesses blowing through
the roof.
And now we're just
waiting to see the health price of GMOs. Time will tell exactly
what tomatoes spliced with mouse genes will do to our bodies.
What's your beef?
There's yet
another area where the playing field has dramatically changed
with scary results.
Our supply of
Omega-3 essential fatty acids.
You see, it used
to be that animals raised for our food supply would be allowed
to graze in fields and pastures -- which were natural sources of
Omega-3 fatty acids. We, in turn, would get the EFAs when we
would eat the meat, milk or eggs from the animals.
The fresh fish
caught in the oceans were also a rich natural source of Omega-3
EFAs.
But the playing
field has changed here too, my friend.
Animals are now
fed mainly grains which has not only annihilated their Omega-3
EFAs (that they USED TO get from grass) but at the same time has
caused the level of Omega-6 EFAs (that they NOW GET from the
grains) in their products to skyrocket.
Plus, thanks to
polluted waters, many fish now contain dangerous levels of
contaminants including PCBs and mercury...so people are
understandably avoiding them.
And the resulting
lack of Omega-3 EFAs in our diet has spelled serious trouble for
young and old alike.
Young people having "senior moments"
now
Although Omega-3
EFAs are probably best known as a natural anti-inflammatory
which can help ease joint aches and pains, they also serve a
function that's even more vital.
Brain health!
50-60% of your
brain's solid matter is fat--in the form of Omega-3 EFAs.
Your brain's
neurons (the cells that transmit messages) are extremely rich in
Omega-3 fatty acids, especially docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
But since the
playing field has changed so dramatically with our food, the
typical Western diet is loaded with Omega-6 fatty acids and
grossly lacking Omega-3's...
And your brain is
literally being deprived of what it needs to function!
This can greatly
impair your ability to think, learn and remember -- for the
young and old alike. Have you ever wondered why the US is
falling further and further behind in student education even
though we have the world's greatest technologies at our
disposal?
DHA and reading, memory and behavior
Numerous
impressive studies show the positive effect of Omega-3 EFA supplementation at ALL ages.
In one study, 26
normal adult volunteers were hooked up to electrodes and given a
test that measured their p300 rate. (The p300 brain wave is linked with
learning and memory.)
Right after the
test, they were given DHA (an Omega-3 fatty acid) supplements,
then two hours later their brain waves were measured again.
In each case,
their p300 rates had risen significantly!
And the research
is just as exciting for the kids.
New research from
the UK suggests that taking a daily supplement of the Omega-3
DHA can help improve reading and behavior in children.
In a study
conducted by Alex Richardson, a senior research fellow at the
Centre for Evidence-Based Intervention at Oxford University,
362 healthy 7 to 9 year-olds were split into two groups -- one
group received 600 mg of Omega-3 DHA each day and the other a
placebo.
After 16 weeks
their reading abilities were examined and the group taking
daily supplements of Omega-3 DHA showed dramatically improved
reading performance for the poorest readers (those in the lowest fifth of the
normal range) -- to the extent that they caught up
with their peer group!
In addition,
parents of the children whose initial reading performance was
lowest and who showed improvements reported that they saw an
overall improvement in their children's behavior.
Change your brain game
With our foods,
the playing field has drastically changed, my friend.
That means it's
vitally important to change your game to help stay healthy in
your body and mind.
For both young and
old, daily supplementation with Omega-3 fatty acids can help
maximize your brain's functioning at all ages, help your kids do
better in school and even can help protect against dementia in
your older years.
VitalMega-3 fish oil formula is the perfect answer to this
very important concern.
VitalMega-3 is loaded with 1,200 mg of Omega-3s in each and
every daily two-capsule serving.
The 2-capsule
daily serving packs super-potent levels of EPA and DHA in the
same pristine form you'd get directly from the fish itself. Even
just one capsule a day gives you nearly 80% of the recommended
daily EPA/DHA!
And our innovative
hexane-free, low-temperature CO2 distillation process helps
enhance purity and efficacy, as it concentrates the essential
fatty acids while maintaining quality of the oil.
As a result, the
crucial Omega-3 EFAs reach your system (and brain) in the
same pristine form as they exist in the fish itself.
Now that's quality
you can trust.
The food supply
playing field is changing all around us, but that doesn't mean
you have to pay the price for it with your health.
Change your game
and give your body and mind a winning advantage over the
shortcomings in our food supply.
Young or old, see all the ways VitalMega-3 can help you here.
To your health,
Sherry Brescia
PS: It's also
essential to maintain the proper brain environment -- and that
means having a slightly alkaline pH. Unfortunately, the typical
acid waste-creating diets most people have leads to a pH that is
too low (acidic), which can contribute to poor brain
functioning. The Great Taste No Pain health system can help turn
that around for you fast by showing you what foods to eat to
raise your pH into the more desirable alkaline level. Learn more
