Human beings are generally tough, durable and long-lasting. Every year there are more centenarians, people 100 or more years old. We are now coming to understand that certain nutrition and life-style choices we make have not only short term effects but also intermediate term (10-20 years) and long term (40-60+ years) effects on our health.
In nutrition, this means that there is a minimum amount of Vitamin C we need to keep from getting scurvy. So the recommended daily amount of Vitamin C was once set just high enough to keep people from getting scurvy. Later we began to realize that while low amounts of vitamin C kept us from getting sick, they did not promote optimal health.
The cycle for getting scurvy is measured in months. But the goal in nutrition is not just to avoid obvious short-term vitamin-deficiancy diseases. It is to promote optimum health, energy levels and well being. For that we need many times the scurvy-prevention level of Vitamin C intake.
There are still longer cycles of nutrient deprivation and lifestyles involving many different nutrients, phytochemicals, antioxidants, etc. These deprivations can lead to diabetes, circulatory problems, heart disease and maybe alzheimer’s disease and others.
On the dark side there are pollutants, toxins, carcinogens and other substances, both known and as-yet-unknown, that have cumulative life-shortening effects on everyone.
All this pushes us to avoid artificial drug solutions and move toward more natural cures.
Knowing this now permits us to successfully cure fibroids in uterus problems and find a highly effective cure for psoriasis. For more information on dealing with and curing psoriasis, just Click Here.
Science marches on, bringing new understandings and suggesting new possibilities every day. As researchers continue to unravel the secrets of how our body chemistry really works, at the molecular level, our view and our capabilities to improve and prolong human live are constantly improving.
