Vitamins
and Minerals Thought To Protect Against Aging
|
During the past thirty years, there has been a steadily growing body
of scientific evidence showing that vitamins and minerals play a much
more important role in our overall health than previously acknowledged.
The proper balance of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients has been
linked to health benefits that include stronger immune system response,
prevention of many degenerative diseases, and the slowing of the daily
wear and tear that is the aging process. A well balanced diet, rich
in the necessary nutrients, while difficult to achieve in our fast paced
culture, has a wide range of benefits.
It is essential to overall health and longevity to keep the immune system
functioning well. There are a number of nutrients that have been shown
be necessary to our immune function. Antioxidants, such as the vitamins
A, C, E, beta carotene, and selenium have been shown to boost immunity.
The minerals zinc and magnesium are also important for immune function.
To ensure a beneficial intake of these antioxidants, you must include
a variety of fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. Zinc and magnesium
can be found in dairy products, and seafood.
Certain vitamins and minerals have been shown to aid in the prevention
of some degenerative diseases, and aging disorders. Antioxidants can
help to lower the risk of cataracts, and macular degeneration, which
are conditions associated with aging. It is also suggested by experts
that they can help slow the aging process by reducing the daily cell
damage done by environmental pollution, and time. Vitamin E has been
linked with a lower risk of heart disease. Niacin, a B vitamin can help
in reducing the level of cholesterol. Some other nutrients that are
helpful in protecting against age related disorders are selenium, cartenoids,
flavinoids, and some Amino acids.
Proper nutrition via the diet, while definitely achievable, is often
a difficult process in today’s fast paced culture, particularly in combination
with the social changes we’ve experienced. People often work longer
and harder, and the two income family reigns supreme, followed closely
by the single parent family unit. Another difficulty involved in achieving
the standard recommended daily intake levels of essential vitamins,
minerals and other nutrients each and every day has to do with food
quality. As minerals are depleted from the soil, due to growing practices
that include single crop plantings and failure to rotate crops or let
field remain fallow to rest and regenerate, as well as through the erosion
of topsoil, the mineral content of food is not always what we think
it is.
Nutritional supplements offer a reliable and safe means of ensuring
that we reach our nutritional goals. Nutritional supplements are not
meant to substitute for a good diet, but rather to complement it. In
fact, they tend to perform much better when they have real food to interact
with. If you are inexperienced with nutritional supplements, you may
benefit from a consultation with a licensed nutritionist who will be
able to help you to devise a nutritional supplement plan best suited
for your dietary needs and health goals.
