Most everyone knows that before drugs existed, most healing was done with herbs and misguided medical theories. Herbs and food were the medicine of past times. In a natural nutrition book, I recently read this quote, “If doctors don’t learn nutrition, nutritionists will become doctors.” This quote shows the importance of nutrition and the power it has to prevent or eliminate illness.

If you are sick or have certain body conditions that are creating pain, then you need to consider learning enough nutrition to help yourself eliminate that sickness or pain. Learning some the basic principles of nutrition is not hard. It just takes a little effort in finding the right nutritional course that teaches practical ways of applying nutrition.

Most illnesses and resulting deaths occur because of inflammation. Inflammation occurs at the beginning of a disease and it is just a slight irritation that you might feel. Many times you just ignore this irritation, which then turns into a slight inflammation. As the inflammation feeds on itself it gets bigger and bigger eventually causing a disease that a doctor can detect. Once a doctor can detect a disease, it is well established in your body.

Applying practical nutrition stops the beginning of inflammation. This prevents the formation of disease. If disease is developing or well established, nutrition can reverse these conditions. One area that nutrition can not heal or cure is when inflammation has caused a disease that has permanently destroyed cells and tissue. But the body has amazing recovering abilities so one cannot always say “the body can not recover.”

Inflammation comes from excess acid in your body. This acid is created from the foods you eat. Eating certain foods leave an acid residue in your cells that then travel into the liquid surrounding your cells – lymph liquid. In the lymph liquid, this acid can damage cells and tissue and in doing so starts the inflammation process.

A good natural anti-inflammatory to use daily is MSM. MSM travels throughout your body reducing inflammation and stopping the beginnings of disease. Using 2000 – 4000 mg of MSM is not uncommon.

Acid in the body is neutralized by minerals. The actual way minerals are created by food and used in your body to stop the destructive effects of acids is taught in nutrition. There are 5 major key minerals that you must concentrate on when you consider what foods to eat. These minerals are responsible for the majority of chemical reactions that occur in your body, which provide you with natural health.

Learning natural nutrition is now possible online. In the past it was difficult to learn nutrition without going to school. Finding courses in practical nutrition can be difficult but what you and most people need is to learn is nutrition that you can put into practice. Understanding nutrition can give you the natural methods that you need to deal with any body discomfort or disease. It gives you the tools and techniques that you need to apply to keep you healthy for a long time. Find the time, find the course, find the health that you need.

Don’t waste good iron for nails or good men for soldiers”. As it is correctly said, nutrition plays an extremely significant role right from the tip of fingers to one’s toe. Nail growth is a good indicator for all possible health related problems which can be linked to intake of daily nutrition.

These problems are associated with multiple factors working together. Lack of proper daily nutrition including proteins is the main cause of improper growth of nails. Deficiency in nutrients can lead to crooked structure, loss of texture, ridged, fragile and yellowing of nails which hamper the growth. One’s body needs adequate amount of all elements for proper development of nails, thus in order to avoid problems one must add certain things in his/her diet. Some of the essential nutrients that affect the nail growth include calcium, vitamin B, Vitamin C or folic acid, protein, fat and iron.on.

Eat plenty of healthy food to get sufficient amount of minerals and vitamins for healthy nails. Let’s take a look on how nutrition plays an important role in growth. Low iron content can cause brittle nails and thus inhibit development. People with iron deficiency generally tend to have spoon shaped nails Hence one should include iron rich product to the diet viz broccoli, shellfish meat, juice, walnut etc. Calcium being the key ingredient for nails should be consumed daily in some form or other. One can get optimum amount of calcium from dairy products.

Nails require proteins and requirements for this can be met by eating lean meat or nuts. Vitamins B and Vitamin C are essential nutrition for nail growth. Hence one should have citrus fruits and other multivitamin supplement along with healthy food. Another component which is essential for growth is Zinc which can be obtained from crabs, breakfast cereals etc. Low level of zincs can cause white spots to occur during growth. Biotin is a vitamin that supports nail growth and the ideal dose recommended in order to eliminate splitting and making nails grow is 2.5mg each day. Besides these elements MSM, methionine and essential fatty acids can significantly assist nail growth. This is the best way to assure oneself of healthy growth.
