The Balance Guide to Success

Many of us work in positions that leave us in front of computers, behind desks and much more.  Many work in positions that never let them slow down for a proper meal during the day.  We do not sleep the eight recommended hours.  We believe our coffee should count in our glasses of water we are supposed to drink each day.  Caffeine and other stimulating substances have become our mainstay rather then the occaisional lift. 

We all know to be healthy, we are supposed to eat right, get exercise, drink water and sleep.  It sounds so simple to say.   Yet in this century of life on the run, it is not so easy to do.  To add to this problem, the nutritional value of the food we are eating is dropping.  More fat.. more sugar.. less nutrients.

Depletion levels (percentages) US senate document No. 264 and the 1992 Earth Summit report documents declining minerals values in the farm and range soils. (Over past 100 years) North America 85%. 

The truth is, it is taking more food to get the same nutritional value, 85 % more.  Add to this, the fat content of that food is also increasing through fast foods and just bigger plate sizes to satisify.  

The World Health organization reports. "Increased consumption of more energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods with high levels of sugar and saturated fats, combined with reduced physical activity, have led to obesity rates that have risen three-fold or more since 1980 in some areas of North America."

Supplements in this day and age has become an absolute must. But you need to use an all natural supplement - they dissolve better and are taken up by the body easier then chemical supplements.
