Keeping Your Health

Lifestyle freedom has at least two components – money freedom and time freedom. One of the assumptions of that is you are healthy enough to enjoy it all. People who have lost their health would often give everything they own to get it back.

Prevention is very important. It’s much easier to keep your health than regain it. One of the best and easiest ways to keep your health is to supplement your diet with very good nutritional supplements. They should at least be a good anitoxidant and chelated minerals supplement.

The antioxidants will help keep oxidative stress from occurring in your body. The oxygen free radicals are oxygen molecules that are missing an electron. They will take from the next thing they bump into. That could be a cell wall, DNA, mitochondria, etc. Soon the cells look like the carpet surrounding a wood burning fireplace without a screen. Antioxidants supply that electron without becoming toxic.

The chelated minerals supply many of the building blocks to repair damage as well as reducing the toxicity of many pollutants in our environment. The chelated part means that the minerals are bound to a some protein molecules to increase the absorbability by the body.

Not all supplements are the same. There is a book called The Comparitive Guide to Nutritional Supplements by Lyle MacWilliam that rates over 1600 products from North America. Check it out.
