The Importance of correct nutrition

The importance of nutritionEvery person should be aware of the importance of nutrition for ones whole well-being.

Proper diet and nutrition sustains life. Proper nutrition is the cornerstone of healthy and happy living.

People today tend to forget that they do not only eat to be full but should eat to sustain life.  Eating without watching what goes into your mouth is like putting garbage in your stomach.

What is Nutrition?

Nutrition is the process of providing cells or organisms life through foods, also called nourishment.

What is Proper Nutrition?

Proper nutrition is the provision of healthy foods that will help in the nourishment, growth, repair and strengthening of cells. It also includes proper or balanced diet programs.  To ensure optimum benefits from nutrition minimize the intake of bad fat and sugar.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) people should consume fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and fish to maintain good health.  People whose diets consist of 60% Whole grains, 30% fruits and vegetable, and 10% fish are able to avoid chronic diseases like hypertension, arthritis, diabetes, heart diseases and other cardiovascular diseases, and even cancer.

However, to stay healthy we should not just focus on good food.  Knowing the importance of nutrition, we should also acknowledge the fact that for one to be truly healthy proper nutrition should be complimented with rest, relaxation, and exercise.

We should also observe healthy living by not eating unhealthy foods and by living a healthy lifestyle- no smoking, no excessive drinking, no late party hours.

    11/20/2009 – (NaturalNews) “If a doctor treats your flu, it will go away in fourteen days. If you leave it alone, it will go away in two weeks,” said Gloria Silverstein. Drinking water, washing your hands, and getting enough sleep are important, but the most effective…

    The way I see it with the ever changing news its hard to keep up to date on current facts. Most of these commenters arent taking into effect the change of the global economy and how much of a different it has on news technologies / medical growth / economic / political issues. But anyways nice read, defiantly enjoyed your post. Found your blog on google search engines btw… most people always wonder how people are finding them.

    I think the article reminds us again of the simple things to do to improve a practice. I’ve yet to see a doctor (or personally) receive a patient’s anger for being late or bad things happening around the office. Patients yell at just about anyone and everyone except the doctor. So I agree with the Doc being the calming influence around the office.Also, this brings up the consumer vs. patient debate. I don’t know if they are mutually exclusive, but I don’t like the idea of “consumer” because if the company doesn’t give you what you want, you go somewhere else. Well, I’m sure that my refusal to hand out antibiotics for sinus infections, colds, and earaches may cost me a few patients (maybe ones that I wouldn’t want in my practice anyway or maybe it’s just that I do a poor job of convincing people they don’t need them [usually], thanks standard of care!) 25 years later, I would be interested to see an xray of each of your knees- the normal one and the ACL deficient one. I bet there are significant side to side differences.Activity modification is still a viable option for an ACL tear in the right patient/setting. But 25 years ago, the surgery was different, the technology (implants) were different and most surgeons would have kept you in the hospital 3-5 days (and some even would have put you in a cast up to your hip for 6 weeks after this operation.)

    Surely there is a need to follow a diet chart so that there is right nutrition from food.There has to be a balance in what we eat to be healthy.A deficiency can cause a disease.

  24. baptist Says:

    Nice post, it was really informative. Was researching on the importance of nutrition and got an idea from this post.

  25. Terry, VP Nutrition Facts Says:

    Totally agree. Nutrition is just one of several major ingredients to overall health and they all act in balance with one-another. For example, there’s no use exercising if you’re exhausted from lack of sleep and haven’t eaten.

    Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    “I’ve gone ahead and bookmarked http://www.medicalblog.net/the-importance-of-correct-nutrition/ at Digg.com so my friends can see it too. I simply used The importance of nutrition | Medical Blog as the entry title in my Digg.com bookmark, as I figured if it is good enough for you to title your blog post that, then you probably would like to see it bookmarked the same way
