Ready For A Health Upgrade?

Supplements can fill gaps that eating food may not accomplish. In addition to supplementing, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can yield a variety of benefits. American nutrition statistics show about 117 million adults dealing with one or more chronic diseases due to improper nutrition and lack of exercise. Planning for weight loss can be difficult, and selecting the right mix of healthy options ensures results. There are many weight loss solutions, diets, pills, and natural remedies available. However, anyone can get substantial results with the right nutrition and supplements.

ReNue Rx Nutrition Guidelines For Losing Weight And Improving Health With Supplements

Start with nutrition for weight loss

Remember, supplements aren’t meant to be a replacement for food. The goal is to pick up the slack when food does not provide enough vitamins and minerals. With weight loss, the goal is to burn more calories than consumed. The only way this is possible is with the right steps at the right time. Here are some simple steps to get started.

1. Cut back on those carbs

Cut back on simple carbohydrates like sugars and starches. Instead of burning carbs for energy, the body starts to burn stored fat. A reduction in carbs also lowers insulin levels. The kidneys love this and start to shed excess sodium and water. In other words, carb reduction can lead to weight loss and reduced bloating.

2. Pack on protein and healthy fats

Every meal should include protein and healthy fats. Protein reduces cravings by 60% with persons on a high-protein diet consuming 441 fewer calories daily. Healthy fats such as olive oil, coconut oil, and avocado, when eaten in moderation, can help people maintain a balanced diet. Fat intake can be especially beneficial when limiting carb consumption.

3. Stick to low-carb vegetables

Vegetables can be consumed in massive amounts while maintaining a low-carb or low-calorie diet. Most greens and colorful veggies have a low carb content, so the more, the better. Eat vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, and kale. Additionally, try to intake whole foods, which are a more satisfying and healthier alternative to processed foods.

4.  Get qualified help ASAP

Most importantly, consult a healthcare provider before making any changes or adopting a new diet routine. Diets are not one-size-fits-all solutions. Each requires research and understanding of specific needs based on lifestyle or health constraints.

Guidelines for selecting supplements

Consume dietary supplements in moderation. Overdosing or mixing supplements may be harmful. For instance, too much Vitamin A can cause liver damage, reduce bone strength, and cause congenital disabilities. As a baseline, use approved supplements by a doctor based on dietary needs. Examine the risk, benefits, and quality with solid research before committing to a brand. Remember, natural does not always mean effective or safe for consumption.

Supplementing made simple

According to some research, 76% of Americans take dietary supplements. Furthermore, 89% of these users credit supplements for a healthier lifestyle. But where should someone start? Stick with these simple compounds:

  • Try calcium and vitamin D for healthy bones, teeth, and muscles
  • Folic acid reduces the risk of specific congenital disabilities
  • B vitamins help with energy, brain function, and managing weight
  • Omega-3 fatty acids reduce the chances of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes
  • Vitamins C, E, zinc, copper, and zeaxanthin are essential for vision and prevent vision degeneration

A multivitamin will have most of these critical vitamins and minerals. A compound pharmacy can also create a unique solution for each user in different forms.

Take health and supplements seriously

Even when supplementing, most doctors recommend food as the primary source of nutrition. A supplement cannot take the place of a well-balanced diet. Supplementation should be a long-term lifestyle change. With a doctor or pharmacist’s advice, use the right supplements today.
