Are you getting the nutrients you need to live a better life?  Do you think the RDA is the best way to tell if you're receiving all of the optimum nutrition you need to avoid disease?


                                              Think again!



RDA stands for Recommended Daily Allowance, which was created by the government to prevent things such as scurvy and spina bifida but, NOT heart disease.  Do you know how many milligrams of vitamin C you need in order to prevent heart disease?  Do you know how much YOU need?  Some people are allergic to vitamin C- are you one of them?  How do you know?

  • Did you know that if you've ever been on birth control you may be deficient in all of your B vitamins? 

  • Did you know that fat free products can make you just as fat as regular ones?  Do you know why? 

  • Did you know that eating too much meat contributes to diabetes?

  • Did you know that even the military now uses yoga to get our troops into better shape both physically and mentally?

  • Did you know that carrots turn into sugar faster than apples?

  • Did you know that eating 4 servings of dark green leafy vegetables per day can help ward off macular degeneration?
