Why Nutritional Supplements?

In 2002, Harvard researchers Robert Fletcher and Kathleen Fairfield convinced the conservative Journal of the American Medical Association to rewrite its policy guidelines on the use of vitamin supplements, based on a landmark review of 38 years of scientific evidence. In two reports, the authors concluded that the current North American diet -- while sufficient to prevent vitamin deficiency diseases, such as scurvy -- is inadequate to support optimal health.

They concluded that given today's diet, daily supplementation with a multiple vitamin “is a prudent preventive measure against chronic disease.”

The case is very strong for taking the necessary nutritional supplementation; the body requires 17 vitamins and vitamin-like substances, a diverse group of plant-based antioxidants, and at least 14 trace elements and minerals.

Like the four basic nutrients (water, carbohydrates, protein, and fats), vitamins and minerals are essential to life. They are often referred to as micronutrients simply because they are needed in relatively small amounts compared with the four basic nutrients.

When beginning a Body Transformation program, it's important to get the proper balance of protein, carbohydrates, and fats, along with all the essential nutrients that the body needs for optimum functioning. Many of today's popular fad diets and meal replacements are designed for quick weight loss, without long-term maintenance and optimum health in mind.

Resist the urge to cut out whole food groups (carbs, for example), restrict calories (how little can I eat and still function?), or consume one main food (vegetable soup or bananas, anyone?)...

The Get Your Body Back program offers a proven system for losing 20 pounds in 90 days, plus the ability to either maintain that fat loss, or to continue losing the next 20 pounds.

You can say goodbye to fads, diet pills and yo-yo dieting forever, once you've gained the knowledge and the experience to work with your body, and give it what it needs for optimum health and an energetic life.

Imagine feeling that good! I know you can Get Your Body Back!
