Seven Nutrition Mistakes: What You Can Do to Correct Them

Using the Seven Nutrition Mistakes Below, Let’s Look at What You Can Do to Correct These

1. Everybody is Using Fish Oil also Known as Omega 3 Fatty Acids

If you’re going to use essential fatty acid supplements, then focus on Omega 6s.

The best sources for these are either borage oil or evening primrose oil (EPO). The first conversion step for the 6s is to gamma linolenic acid (GLA). This is the active ingredient. Borage oil has a lot of this.

I don’t even think one has to use Omega 3s, but if you do, the 6/3 ratio should be between 3/1 and 9/1.

2. Many Supplement with Zinc

Use a supplement that has no more than 15 milligrams of elemental zinc as you can take too much zinc AND too much in respect to copper. Keep the ratio of zinc to copper 10/1 or less. Using 15 milligrams of zinc as an example, then use 2 milligrams of copper.

3. Mineral Imbalances

Mineral supplementation is more important than vitamin use. The best source of minerals is chelated minerals — this is what I use in my product. You need the right amount and the absorption rate should be high.

Most sources are poorly absorbed. Using calcium as an example, calcium carbonate absorbs only about 10%, and this source is the one from the highly marketed coral calcium.

The government Recommended Dietary Allowances for minerals are pretty good so use them as a guideline.

4. Shotgun Approach

A dash of this and a dash of that. Wanna know what you need? Read the book I wrote on nutrition supplements. I spell it all out in there.

5. Using Supplements as Drugs

Supplements are not drugs and disease nowadays rarely arises from nutrient deficiencies. By following this attitude, you’ll be driven to make mistake #4.

6. People are Missing Out on Energy Medicine Because It’s Time Has Not Come

This is a tough one. The most popular energy medicine is homeopathy but the practice of it is out of touch so it’ll be tough to get that done correctly. Also, few people have the training or background to analyze what they hear or read. That’s why people consult with me, so I can take them by the hand.

There are many good companies who make excellent homeopathic combination products. This is a good way to start using the products. Many health food stores and drug stores sell these products so they are easy to get. They are labelled well and the indications are listed on the bottle such as sinus drops, headache drops, and intestinal drops.

Vibrational Medicine by Richard Gerber and a book called The Field by Lynne McTaggart are good ways to begin your studies in this area. Also, rent a movie called What the Bleep Do We Know. This stuff is coming out but we’re still decades before there will be much use of it on a large scale.

It just takes forever for things to reach take-off.

7. Continuing to Consume a Low-Fat Diet

This digs into so much that is wrong with many belief systems and the way our “experts” guide us. Few people read as deeply as they should and the medical, government, and university experts bought into low-fat and that shut-down rational thinking.

Studies continued to go on and low-fat can now be considered a dangerous diet because of glycation.

Low-carbohydrate is the diet of choice and just not for weight control.

Just saw an editorial in the Philadelphia Inquirer and the journalist rips Obama as a bad example because he’s eating burgers at Five Guys. What’s the implication? Beef and meat are bad for us.

Just a little bit of  research will uncover that what this nation believes about meat and beef is wrong. There’s no proof that meat and beef are bad. And in fact, if followed as part of a low-carb diet, then eating beef and meat is the healthiest diet for us.

But no, he chose not to do the research. There’s plenty of writing on this site to cover all that.

So, what does he do that’s so healthy? He eats M&Ms. Talk about insane. Glycation. And cholesterol. Do you know the precursor for cholesterol synthesis? Glucose from carbohydrates.

Everyone thinks it comes from fat. Wrong.

Let’s start by getting some of the basics right.
