  1. Optimal Health….. for normal people! - What is really happening? - How to fix it with nutrition.

  2. Let’s first look at your normal diet … Assessment of Typical Daily Diet Our aim is to provide you with some nutrition information tailored to suit your personal needs. To achieve this, let’s first assess what your nutritional intake is now - • Breakfast -Type of Cereal ? -Fruit? -Yoghurt? -Other? • Morning Snack • Lunch - Fruit - Vegetables -Carbohydrates - Proteins - Other (describe) • Afternoon Snack • Dinner - Salad - Vegetables - Carbohydrates - Proteins - Other (describe) - How many different colour vegetables per day? - How many Different colour fruits per day? - How many cups of Tea and/or Coffee do you have in a day? - No. of sugars? - Milk - Full cream or low fat? - Do you take supplements – Yes / No- If yes, what do you take and how often?

  3. Today we have a “Sickness Industry” Western medicine treats symptoms, rather than preventing the causes. • Heart Disease accounts for 39% of all deaths. Over half of all heart attacks result in death before reaching hospital. • ‘Cancer’ is one of our most feared words. Is it because we don’t know if and when it is coming, and feel powerless to prevent it? Cancer is responsible for 28% of deaths. • Diabetes has trebled in Australia since 1981. One in four adult Australians now have diabetes or impaired glucose metabolism. THE BIG QUESTION – What can we really do to prevent the big 3 – (Cancer, Heart Disease, Diabetes) and enjoy “Optimal Health”?

  4. What Is Optimal Health? • Jumping out of bed in the morning feeling energised and ready for the day! • Tired all the time • No colds and flu’s, rarely get sick • If it is going around, I catch it! • Lowered risk of heart disease, cancer & diabetes • Ever-increasing risk of major disease • Ideal body weight • Overweight or obese, just can’t lose it. • No need for chronic (continual) medication • Increasing prescription drugs for Fatigue, Stress, Depression, Blood Pressure, Diabetes, etc.

  5. Why do we have these problems? • There are two clearly identifiable causes • which we can easily do something about – • Poor ‘cellular health’, which effects • energy levels, • heart disease, • weight gain, • diabetes • ‘Free radical’ attack, which effects • cancers • heart disease

  6. 1. Cellular Health A healthy cell… Cell Membrane -75% fat including essential fatty acids Omega 6 and Omega 3, in the ratio 3 : 1 Nutrients are absorbed through the cell membrane for nourishment Nucleus Waste products leave through the cell membrane for disposal Mitochondria When your cells are healthy your body is able to function at optimal levels

  7. 1. Cellular Health An unhealthy cell… Cell Membrane - essential fatty acids Omega 6 and Omega 3, in the ratio 20 3 : 1 Synthetic Fats harden the cell membranes, Nutrients are not absorbed as effectively Synthetic fats are ‘Trans fatty acids’, 90% of which come from our modern processed foods.

  8. Results of unhealthy cells - Blood Sugar Insulin Insulin Time Food!? Food!! Carbohydrate Spiking Cell becomes malnourished Craving for carbohydrate (often sugar) Snacking, and over-eating. Cell wall doesn’t let enough food in, leaving blood with high sugar levels. Body stores ‘excess’ sugar as fat Insulin overload & resistance RESULTS - Fatigue - Obesity - Diabetes

  9. More results of unhealthy cells… • Cholesterol and fatty deposits spill over from cell into the walls of the blood vessel wall as fatty plaques (artherosclerosis) Bloodvessel Clear blood flow Fatty deposits in the wall • Blood Vessel wall gradually swells, reducing the blood flow then eventually ruptures like a pimple which suddenly blocks the blood flow. Wall breaks and fatty plaque blocks blood flow = Heart Attack!

  10. 2. Free Radical Attack Pollution, Poor diet, High exercise levels, Smoking & Stress produce toxins in our bodies. These toxins have to be dealt with by the cells with a process that requires Oxygen and Energy. This process is called oxidation. Oxidation produces Free Radicals, which are unstable chemicals that have lost an electron. To stabilise themselves, Free Radicals attack our blood vessels, our immune systems and our DNA. Normal cell functions are disrupted starting the process of HEART DISEASE and CANCER growths. Other processes may begin including Premature Ageing, Neurological disorders, Emphysema, and Cataracts.

  11. Objective Method A. Cut out synthetic fats - Processed foods & carbohydrates such as most bakery items, most cereals, all deep fried food, biscuits, sweets, chocolate, potato chips, etc. 1. To restore our bodies cell membrane function by restoring the correct Omega 6 : Omega 3 balance to 3 : 1 OR • B. Reduce synthetic fats and • increase Omega 3 intake by • either • Eating deep sea cold water fish 3+ times per week OR • Supplementing with Omega 3 • Increase our Anti-oxidants - • Fruit & Vegetables • Tea, especially green tea • Extra virgin olive oil • Red wine • Anti-oxidant vitamin • supplements – A, C & E 2. We have to combat Free Radicals with Anti-oxidants

  12. Getting Real….. If we’re honest, most of us know that we are not going to: • Cut out all processed foods • Eat 5 serves of vegetables and 2 serves of fruit every day • Eliminate all stress • Eliminate all pollution • Eat 3 or more serves of cold water, deep sea fish a week • So, if we are to gainOptimal Health, (Feeling energised, rarely get sick, low risk of heart disease, cancer & diabetes, ideal body weight), we need to supplement our • Nutritional and anti-oxidant vitamins, • and our • Omega 3 oils.

  13. What type of Supplements, and why? Several factors should be considered when selecting supplements – • How much of the product is actually available to your body – called “bio-availability”. • How much of the product can be absorbed by your body before elimination. • Oxides or Compounds like Iron oxide have 20% bio-availability, of which 20% is absorbed. 4% total absorption. • Chelated vitamins have Amino Acids added which aids absorption. They have 60% bio-availability with 40% absorption. 25% total absorption. • Organic supplements are grown, not manufactured. The whole natural plant is used, resulting in 90% bio-availability with 80% absorption. 72% total absorption.

  14. Other advantages of ‘Organic’…. • No concentrated chemicals or pesticides • Contain the whole plant concentrate – a large range of phyto-nutrients. (Thousands of additional plant nutrients) Advantages of Nutriway supplements • The only global supplier of organic supplements. • Standardised manufacturing practice. • Independent laboratory testing and research. • Ownership of the whole production process from soil to tablet ensures control of quality. 72 year history. • They work! They are totally guaranteed for 90 days.

  15. Suggested Supplement Strategy • Omega 3 – Deep sea fish oiltorestore your cell membrane function, protect you from heart disease and give you energy. • OrganicMultivitamin (Double X) – To provide anti-oxidant vitamins A, C & E to combat free radical damage, and also provide all of the vitamins and minerals which may be lacking in your normal diet. Other solutions – • Weight management: Healthpointe program • High Stress: Vitamin B, • Osteoporosis: Calcium Magnesium • Inflammation / Arthritis: Glucosamine • PMT Primrose Plus • Anxiety, nervous tension: Passionflower & Chamomile • Low infection resistance: Echinacea • Male 45+ : Saw Palmetto (for Prostate)

  16. A recent success story …. Asafa Powell, who clocks in at 9.74 seconds in the 100 m, was introduced to the product by his older brother three months prior to breaking the world record. "Taking Double X was the only change I made to how I had been training," Powell confirmed. "After I started taking it, I felt I had more energy to train harder and run faster. I am very careful about what I consume so I appreciate the balanced vitamin and mineral content plus the rich, all-natural plant concentrates in Double X."
