What are the 7 main minerals?

What does the calcium do for the body?

Calcium is a mineral most often associated with healthy bones and

teeth, although it also plays an important role in blood clotting, helping

muscles to contract, and regulating normal heart rhythms and nerve functions.

The major minerals, which are used and stored in large quantities in the body, are

calcium, chloride, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, and sulfur. The trace

minerals are just as vital to our health as the major minerals, but we don’t need

large amounts

Weight Loss Tips Guaranteed To Help You Lose Weight

Everywhere you turn, everybody’s got a weight loss tip. There’s a new diet

in the magazine at the supermarket, and a new pill advertised on TV. What

should you believe?

weight loss, diet, health, fitness, weight loss products, diet aids

A week or so ago, I was in the check-out line at the supermarket and saw a blurb

on the cover of a magazine. The headline read: “Breakthrough! FAT LOSS VITAMIN!”,

and the text beneath it said, “95% of us don’t get enough. Safely boost your intake and:

*Lose 4 lbs a week!

*Burn 20% more fat every day!

Being in the business of health, fitness, diet and weight loss, this claim intrigued me

Very briefly, here’s what the article had to say: Most people don’t get enough Vitamin C,

and Vitamin C can help your body burn more fat.β˜¦β˜―πŸ•ŽπŸ”―βœ‘πŸ’¨

Vitamin C is touted for its many health benefits: It boosts immunity, improves heart health,

bolsters iron absorption, and much more.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient needed for tissue growth, development, and repair. An

antioxidant, it helps protect cells from free radicalsβ€”unstable molecules that damage cells.

Now, this was interesting, and since I believe most people don’t get the nutrients they

need, I was willing to go along with the idea of increasing your normal intake of

Vitamin C, either by increasing the amount of things such as orange juice, which is good

for you anyway and it contains a lot of Vitamin C, or by use of Vitamin C supplements.

What do you eat on an anti-inflammatory diet?
To fight inflammation, go for whole, unprocessed foods with no added sugar:
fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes (beans, lentils), fish, poultry, nuts, seeds,
a little bit of low-fat dairy, and olive oil. “To these, many people add herbs and
spices like cinnamon, ginger, and turmeric.

The information in the article made sense, and, when I did a little independent

online investigation, I found that apparently the article was reasonably accurate.

I don’t have a particular problem with the information in this article, and agree

that increasing Vitamin C could help someone lose weight.

This brings us to the slightly exaggerated title of this article.

Everyday, it seems we are bombarded with all these claims about weight loss,

fat loss, diets and health. One person says their pill will deal with cortisol, which

is the cause of weight gain. Another says their diet will “melt” the fat. Someone

else wants to hypnotize you, and that will do the trick. The covers of many other

magazines at the checkout on the day I bought my magazine had different tips,

hints, diets, and weight loss solutions.

All these people can’t be telling the truth, can they?

Is weight gain the result of cortisol, poor diet, lack of exercise, not enough

Vitamin C, lack of sleep, stress, too much beer, or just bad genes?

Actually, the answer to both questions is, “Yes…sort of…”

The actual biological process by which people get fat is known. The solution is also

known, and it doesn’t have much to do with Vitamin C, cortisol, genes, or a lot of

other things…directly.

A runner who wishes to run faster gets there by training at running and trying to run

faster. However, that runner can also strengthen his or her legs by using weight

training. They can improve their performance, or perhaps reach their goal faster, by

eating a certain type of diet…maybe even making changes in that diet at different

points of their training or competition schedule. If stress is inhibiting their

performance, learning to meditate might help them put that stress behind them or

at least relieve it enough so that their times improve. If their home life or work

schedule is such that it interferes with their training, rest, or nutrition schedules,

then making a change in those areas may improve their athletic performance.

Even so, the main thing in their running training is…running! Everything else just

helps with the speed of development or the amount of progress that is ultimately

made.

The same thing applies to most weight loss situations and so-called solutions.

Increasing physical activity and eating reasonably are the two major things that

bring about healthy, permanent weight loss. If, in your exercise program, you choose

to supplement with Vitamin C, or get more sleep, or take something which reduces

the effects of cortisol, or quit your job because it interferes with your weight loss

program, then you will probably enhance the results. You will lose more weight over

time, lose the weight a bit faster, or just find the whole process easier. However, t

he major portion of the weight loss (and improved health and enjoyment of life),

comes from the basics of exercise and nutrition.

So what about the people who DID lose weight by breathing properly, or taking

Vitamin C, or adding Chocolate to their diet?

People are all different, and so are the facts and factors of their lifestyles, education,

upbringing, and genetic makeup. Someone who is one dress size bigger than she

wants to be may get all the weight loss she needs from increasing HER Vitamin C

intake. That does NOT mean that every woman will experience the SAME results.

Another woman may need to lose a lot more than one dress size, and taking

Vitamin C, while it might help her shed a few pounds and be more healthy overall,

will probably NOT produce anywhere near the total results she hopes to achieve. If,

however, she IS doing the right things to bring about weight loss, adding the

Vitamin C may speed the process a bit and help get her to her goal a little faster,

The key word in all these claims is “help” whether it is stated or merely implied. True

healthy, permanent weight loss will be the result of a combination of activity and

nutrition. All the other things, which may certainly be of value, are just helping.

How can I increase my bone density after 60?
