Supplement Nutrition that works with our Metabolism

By Diet-Depot-Newsletter

Many of us will be tempted to try those wonder diet pills.

There are so many to choose from, which offer so many promises!

Fat burners! Carb Blockers! Energy Boosters! Metabolism Revving Pills!

Promises! Promises! Promises!

All giving us high hopes!

But leading to jitters, nerves wracking havoc, and the shakes for some of us!

A lot of these diet pills will contain

Ma Huang, ephedrine, or ephedra as one of the main ingredients.

Adverse effects can include: nervousness, dizziness, tremor, increased blood pressure or heart rate, headache, stomach upset, chest pain, heart attack, hepatitis, stroke, seizure, psychosis, and death.

Have we forgotten about supplements??

So many of us are not getting the proper nutrients from the way food is processed, cooked, and the lack of foods we don't eat.

Did you know that there are nutrients that work with our metabolism?

Why go with fad diet pills, when we can choose a better, safer alternative to help our metabolism??

Next you will find a list of supplements that work with our bodies metabolism, which will help us achieve our goals:

You find below, on-line merchants that can provide you with the ones you decide to use. Please browse all the links to find the best deals.

Inositol:

Some experts believe an inositol (D-Chiro-Inositol) deficiency causes women to become insulin resistance. Take 1200 mg daily to ensure proper blood sugar processing.

Vitamin E
increase in libido, normalizes menstrual cycle, and brings the progestrone and estrogen ratios into balance. Protects the fatty parts of cell walls; prevents oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Reduces oxygen requirement of muscles. Prevents degeneration of nerves and muscles. The more polyunsaturated fats you eat, the more vitamin E is need to protect them from oxidation.

B1 (Thiamin)
Used in energy metabolism. Supports normal appetite and needed for brain and nervous system function.
Essential for many bodily functions, including the release of ene rgy from carbohydrates, alcohol, and fats, and the health of nerves and muscles.

B2 (Riboflavin)
Used in energy metabolism. Supports normal vision and skin health. Vitamin B2 is involved in many bodily processes, especially in making energy available from food; growth in children; and the repair and maintenance of body tissues.

B3 (Niacin/Niacinamide)
Used in energy metabolism. Niacin comprises nicotinic acid and nicotinamide, which are both needed for the productio n of energy in cells. Healt! h of ski n, nervous system, digestive system. Essential for normal growth.

Nicotinamide is involved in enzyme processes, including fatty acid metabolism, tissue respiration, and the disposal of toxins.

B5 (Pantothenic acid)
Part of a coenzyme vital for energy release.
Important for the health of the adrenal gland. Formation of antibodies. Plays a central role in making energy from fats and carbohydrates available for the production of essential substances in the body,
including the production of steroid hormones and fatty acids.

B6 (Pyridoxine)
Important in protein metabolism. Vital for maintaining a healthy nervous system, s kin, muscles and blood. Involved with conversion of the omega 6 essential fatty acids which play a role in hormone health.
Required by the body in the making of proteins, to release stored glucose and in the production of niacin from tryptophan.
All these bodily processes are necessary for growth, blood formation, and to protect against infection. The more protein that is eaten, the more vitamin B6 required.

Biotin
Part of coenzyme used in energy metabolism and fat synthesis. Biotin is Needed to make the energy from food available, for instance, for the synthesis of fats, and for the excretion of protein waste products.

Choline and Inositol
Related compounds to the B vitamins. Lipotrophic factors helping to prevent fat accumulations in the liver. Choline involved in formation
of the brain chemical acetylcholine.

PABA
Involved in amino acid metabolism and health of red blood cells.

Chromium
Part of an organic complex called glucose tolerance factor (G.T.F.), which is involved in glucose metabolism. Also plays a role in blood fat levels and is beneficial to cholesterol levels. Chromium was only identified as an essential mineral about 30 years ago, and it is still not well understood. It is part of a compound needed to enable the insulin system to work. Chromium is also involved in fat metabolism and in maintaining the structure of genetic material.

Iodine
Required for the production of the hormone thyroxine by the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is one of the hormones involved in the control of metabolic rate.

Needed by the thyroid gland to produce the thyroid hormone, which regulates more than 100 enzyme systems involving the metabolic rate, growth, reproduction, and many more essential functions.

Iron
Iron is involved in certain energy releasing reactions.
Iron is also part of a number of enzymes,
including some that make energy available.

MANGANESE
Manganese is part of several essential enzymes and triggers the activities of numerous others, including antioxidant and energy-production processes.

Magnesium
Involved with bone strength. A co-factor in energy release reactions. Involved in the transport of calcium to the muscles.
Necessary for correct functioning of nerves and muscles.

Phosphorous
Has an important role in healthy bone formation, along with calcium in particular. Also involved in energy conversion reactions within the body.
In combination with calcium, phosphorus helps maintain the strength of the bones and teeth. It is needed by the body to use energy and B vitamins from food. Phosphorus is a constituent of many essential body substances and body control mechanisms.

Zinc
Zinc is needed for a large number of enzyme reactions. It is necessary for growth and for normal cell division and function. Zinc is required for the thymus gland (immune health) and for insulin release.
It is needed for healthy prostate function, for healthy sperm and for the health of the ovaries, too. The mineral is necessary for maintaining vision, taste and smell. Involved in the formation of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (S.O.D.).

NOTE: As you have noticed some of these nutrients/supplements work with your sugar levels. Why is that important, you may wonder?

Here is why....

Insulin regulates our blood sugar levels, but the bad effects caused by the overproduction of insulin causes our bodies to store excess sugar as fat. Excess Insulin also inhibits the mobilization of stored fat, And, insulin signals our liver to make cholesterol. Carbohydrates is a culprit that raises our insulin secretion. Stay away from simple carbs, such as sugar, candy, cakes and cookies. Eat in moderation! When it comes to carbs...it is best to eat carbs loaded with fiber, such as whole grains, vegetables, legumes and fruits. Stay away from white flour products....white bread, white rice, rice and corn based cereals, white potatoes. Choose whole wheat bread, rye, pumpernickel, whole grain cereals, sweet potatoes and yams, and brown rice. Choosing healthier foods will help keep your blood sugar level. This way our body can concentrate on mobilizing our body fats. Choose supplements from above that work with our sugar levels.
