What are Macronutrients?

What are Macronutrients?

Basic nutrition is composed of three main Macronutrients: protein, fat, and carbohydrates.

Proteins are the body’s building blocks: they help us grow and repair our cells.

Fat stores energy for the long term, and is also a great barrier for our cells and body.

Carbohydrates are used for immediate energy, like quick fuel.

What are Micronutrients?

What are Micronutrients?

In addition to macronutrients we need micronutrients – vitamins and minerals. “Micro” because we need them in much smaller quantities every day, even though they play a big role in the body.

Micronutrients and macronutrients are interdependent. But we need a larger variety of micronutrients - more than 20 - to complement the three macronutrients. Micronutrients perform hundreds of roles in the body to sustain life.

What are Phytonutrients?

What are Phytonutrients?

Phytonutrients are organic components found in plants that are thought to promote human health. The term “phyto” originates from a Greek word meaning plant. They help protect plants from germs, fungi and other threats.

When absorbed by our bodies, phytonutrients can help us stay healthy and keep our bodies working properly. Fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts and teas are all rich sources of phytonutrients.

Why do we need Protein?

Protein is required for growth, maintenance and repair of tissue. Every cell is made stronger with protein. It helps our bodies stay energized, build muscle and maintain lean muscle even as we age. Because the body doesn’t store it, protein must be replenished every day.

Protein is made up of 20 different amino acids. Nine of them are essential, meaning our bodies don’t produce them and they must be consumed in our food.

How much protein do our bodies need?

The World Health Organization recommends 0.83g of high quality protein per kg of body weight* per day. For a person weighing 60kg that equates to almost 50 g of protein each day. Or about 8 eggs. Athletes and very active people need even more.

Why Omega-3 Fatty Acids?

Why Omega-3 Fatty Acids?

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients our bodies need – through diet or supplementation. They help maintain healthy cardiovascular and nervous systems – functions that are extremely important for the heart and the brain.

Why Nutrilite™ Omega-3 Complex?

Why Nutrilite™ Omega-3 Complex?

Nutrilite™ Omega-3 Complex can improve the balance of omega-3 fatty acids in our bodies. Nutrilite™ Omega-3 Complex starts with ocean salmon and adds more fish sources for an ocean-sensitive, more sustainable formula.

One soft gel provides about the same amount of the omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA as a 28-gram serving of salmon.

our bodies need?

How much fish should we eat to get the omega-3 fatty acids our bodies need?

The American Heart Association recommends eating at least two servings of fish (particularly fatty fish) per week. Each serving is 100 grams cooked of flaked fish. Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, herring, lake trout, sardines and albacore tuna are high in omega-3 fatty acids.

Why Multivitamins?

Vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients that our bodies need to get through diet, or supplementation. They work together with macronutrients to perform hundreds of roles in the body that sustain life.

Even though vitamins and minerals are both considered micronutrients, they differ in their chemical makeup. They’re different but they complement each other.

There are two types of vitamins – fat soluble and water soluble. Fat soluble vitamins can be stored in our bodies for future use. Water soluble vitamins travel through the bloodstream and need to be replenished daily. Whatever the body doesn’t need is flushed out.

NUTRILITE™ DOUBLE X™ IS THE NUMBER ONE SELLING
