Opinion dietitian
At present, the formation of culture in the preservation and strengthening of health needs has been increasing steadily: regular visits to the dentist, nutritionist other professionals as a prophylactic measure - it is not a fad, but a transition to a qualitatively new level of life, image and success
. On the other hand there was an alternative to commonly used products and opportunity without changing their eating habits and taste preferences, switch completely to organic products
What are the advantages and health benefits of these foods are? First of all, ecological products - it really is a taste of security and can be safely add utility. Such products do not contain pesticides, preservatives, nitrates, genetically modified components, growth hormones, "E" additives, and therefore the power consumption of healthy benefits Organic overemphasized!
Here are the main advantages of the Organic products which have been identified in the Report of the Joint Consultative meeting of the WHO / FAO "Food and health in Europe: a new basis for action»:
"Organic food production technologies save the environment»;
"As a result of the use of Organic products reduce the risk of major non-communicable diseases (cardiovascular, cancer, obesity, diabetes), which accounted for about 60% of all cases of death»;
"Reduced risk for overweight and obesity, the prevalence of which in Russia is very high and reaches 30-60% for different groups of the population».
After switching to a diet consisting of Organic products increases the effectiveness of exercise and is particularly want to attract the attention of those who are truly interested in maintaining its shape, or has set itself the goal of reducing body weight or build muscle, working out in a fitness club.
Transition to Organic products will provide the best results in the optimum time. This is achieved by the fact that during a workout energy is spent as intended, not to detoxify chemical impurities caught in the diet. Transport oxygen system is not blocked by nitrates and nitrites that cause methemoglobinemia and deliver oxygen to the destination, both in aerobic and anaerobic during physical exertion.
The significant distinguishing feature of the transition to Organic products is to restore the function of digestion, which leads to an improvement in the assimilation of nutrients and energy from food. In this connection, often the recommended protein diet with physical activity, it is more effective, and calcium absorption normalization prevents the development of osteoporosis - increased brittleness and fragility of bones, which is very dangerous at high physical exertion
. Reducing toxic effects of harmful impurities in food leads to an improvement of renal excretory function, which reduces the level of slagging and intoxication, and this in turn increases the natural recovery mechanisms, relieves chronic fatigue and barriers to well-being.
And finally, the most important advantage of organic products is that organic products are simply delicious. High taste quality organic products are determined, of course, their freshness, a high concentration of nutrients, the absence of foreign flavors and artificial flavors. The World Health Organization has even expressed its concerns about the application tasting committee that the products manufactured on the basis of organic, tasty, and this may contribute to greater consumption of such products.
