Nutrition - Food is the Raw Material for Senior Health and Lifetime Fitness.

Nutrition - the Raw Material for Senior Health and Lifetime Fitness Food, what we eat daily, provides the basic materials that build and sustain the body. In our prime we can seemingly eat anything and digest it, absorb it, assimilate it and utilize it. But as we age, stomach acid and enzyme production decrease, digestion worsens, absorption and assimilation of nutrients becomes less effective. Mechanisms for getting nutrients into our cells, and waste products out, become less effective. The basic starting point for any anti-aging effort is to eat all the necessary nutrients and enhance the mechanisms for digestion, absorption and assimilation. We tend to think of our body as a self-contained object like a chair or maybe a car, and yes we need to input food and water or we get messed up, but the tendency is to think of oneself as the same today as we were yesterday. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are constantly tearing down and rebuilding every organ, cell and DNA molecule we possess. Even our bones are constantly replacing themselves. The material for all this renovation is food. Any deficiency in the needed materials, even short term, and our body will cleverly sacrifice one part to repair another; like scavenging muscle for protein to repair sunburned skin. But if a deficiency persists, some aspect of our physiology will break down and we become "diseased". The body is an amazingly complex system; its nutritional requirements are equally complex and yet humanity has been thriving on a wide range of regional diets for a long time. In most cases, primitive regional diets make the best of what is foods are available and the physical conditions that prevail, and for perhaps millions of years, have allowed us to reach reproductive age and live long enough to rear children to replace us. The current purpose, however, is to eat so well that we get all the nutrients we need to maximize our health and life span, and to avoid functional decline (and pain) as long as possible. Strategies: Here are the basic principles for obtaining, digesting, absorbing and assimilating all the right nutrients: Eat real, whole, unprocessed foods! Eat mostly that which is plucked from the ground, off a tree or bush, or was walking, swimming or flying recently. Eat almost nothing that comes in a bag or a box. Our entire evolutionary history was spent eating foods described in the first line. It makes immense sense to me that we evolved to prosper on such foods. We humans have recently rediscovered that the red and blue fruits are loaded with anti-oxidants, that the cabbage family vegetables are rich in cancer-fighting sulforaphanes. Do you know that grass-fed beef is high in omega-3 fats, and actually reduces inflammation like fish and fish oils? Make baked goods (cakes, cookies, chips, crackers, desserts and white breads) a rare part of your diet. These processed foods, that typically come in a bag or a box, are generally loaded with refined grains, sugar and unhealthy hydrogenated fats. The exceptions to the bag/box rule are nuts and dried fruits. Eat adequate amounts of the right fats! Fat is absolutely necessary for survival, but there are Fats that Heal and Fats that Kill - that is the title of an amazing book by Udo Erasmus - a 'must read' for anyone interested in optimum health. If you don’t eat enough of the right fats, virtually every cell in every organ of your body will be compromised. Fats, however, require bile, produced by the liver and metered by the gallbladder, for digestion in the small intestines. Poor bile flow or an obstructed gallbladder will make digesting fats an uncomfortable task. The liver manufactures approximately one quart of bile every day, which serves as a carrier for toxic substances to be effectively eliminated from the body. In addition, the bile emulsifies fats and fat-soluble vitamins in the intestine, improving their absorption. When the excretion of bile is inhibited (cholestasis), toxins stay in the liver longer with damaging effects. Many seniors have slow bile production, and need to be taking supplements (such as Milk Thistle and SAM-E) to enhance bile production. We get one liver, and it has a huge number of critically important functions to perform for the duration of our lives. Its biggest enemies are High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS), refined seed oils, eating too frequently or too abundantly, acetaminophen (as in Tylenol and other off-shelf medicines)and statin drugs. Grass-fed livestock, free-range poultry and wild-caught fish have the proper balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fats and are health-building foods; grain-finished livestock, caged/commercially-fed poultry and farm-raised seafood do not, and are a large part of our health issues in this age. Avoid all refined oils; use extra-virgin olive oil, extra-virgin coconut oil or butter for food and cooking. Eat or drink nothing that has the words 'partially hydrogenated' on the label. Please read my article on hydrogenation to understand the gravity of what these fats do in your body, then get Erasmus’ book and fully understand the physiology of fats and their importance to your health. If you don’t eat enough fat, you will be unable to reduce your body-fat levels; your body will conserve stored fat if it gets too little in your diet. You can’t be lean and muscular unless you eat enough of the right fats. Be aware of the common sources of hydrogenated oils and trans-fats; margarine, shortening, Cool Whip, non-dairy creamers, nearly all cocoa mixes, and the most popular of all - french fries and potato chips. When you eat is every bit as important a what you eat. This is the most important factor in avoiding ever-growing belly fat, metabolic syndrome and maintaining healthy liver function. The rules for proper liver function are these: Eat three meals 5-6 hours apart to let insulin reach baseline levels between meals. Low insulin is required for the body to burn fats as fuel. Snacking at 3-4 hours completely shuts off the burning of fat. The last three hours between meals the liver will supply blood sugar by breaking down fat deposits and converting the triglycerides to glucose and ketones. Similarly, eat nothing after dinner to get an 11-12 hour fast. This is the most important time for the liver to burn fats and detox the body. Eating before bed greatly hampers this process. When hunger comes between meals and after dinner, convince your brain that it is thirst arising and drink a big glass of water - the hunger will slack. This issue revolves around the hormone Leptin, which is the primary regulator of metabolism. Frequent meals raises leptin levels in the bloodstream, chronically elevated leptin leads to leptin resistance, leptin resistance makes your brain think you are staving and drained of energy. You want to eat all the time and you want to eat lots of carbohydrates for fuel - this makes you pack on fat with abandon, and one day you are suddenly a type-II diabetic. Learn sensible portion control! Modest portion size is a major part of eating correctly; never eat until you’re full. Eating only three (or less) modest meals a day is essential for fat control and muscle growth. Most people over 45 have a protruding belly; the primary cause is eating three "solid" (meaning BIG) meals a day and snacking at every twinge of hunger. A very good gauge to portion size is that your protein serving (meat, fish, fowl or vegetarian) should be about the size of the palm of your hand. The rest of the meal should not exceed that weight in total. You can go some overboard on fibrous, non-starch vegetables, but small meals are the rule; shrink your stomach to fit in your abdominal cavity without a bulge. This one practice alone will reduce your blood sugar swings and slow the glycation mechanism of aging to a crawl. Eat sufficient protein for the body to maintain and repair its structure! A healthy, active (intense weight training or aerobic sessions or sports 3 days per week) person needs about 1.5 grams of protein per pound of lean body mass to grow, repair and maintain muscle and other organs. So, in these three meals, if each of them have palm-sized meat courses or a couple of eggs, you will not be far from the right number. Make breakfast, in particular, a protein-rich meal to keep blood sugar from spiking and to give you the materials to repair your body throughout the day. Abandon sugar-filled breakfast cereals for real foods. The bulk of each meal should be non-starchy vegetables, with nuts, legumes or starch-based foods as a minor part. A protein drink after a workout will start the repair process and supply immediate amino acid needs. My practice is to use the recovery drink on those days as the meal, or add some real food soon after. Note that in natural sources, proteins and fats are nearly always found together. I try to imitate nature, and add a little flax oil, extra-virgin coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil to my protein drinks for more complete nutrition. Learn the rules of food combining! Basically, don't eat starches and proteins together - they will stay in your stomach for hours and you won't absorb the protein. Proteins require an acid stomach environment for the meat-digesting enzymes (proteases) to work. The youthful stomach produces abundant hydrochloric acid for just that purpose. Starches require an alkaline stomach for the starch-digesting enzymes (amylases) to do their stuff. Combining them slows the process badly for the aging stomach. Hence the reputation of beans and chili as gas-builders; beans are high in protein and starch – tough on old stomachs. Many nutritionists will insist that you should eat a balance of protein, carbs and fats in every meal. I say they should try that at 60-plus and see how bloated they feel for the next three hours. If you find bean dishes hard to digest, take special note of the next strategy. Supplement meals with Hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes; take Probiotics! Stomach acid and enzyme production decreases as we age - digestion worsens, absorption and assimilation of nutrients is less effective. Acid indigestion or heartburn is a clear sign that we are producing insufficient hydrochloric acid (HCl) and/or pepsin. It means food is staying in the stomach because it is not digesting. The problem is not too much acid, but too little. The media (and the medical community) will have you believe you need antacids or Prilosec to shut down acid production, but those strategies make proteins virtually indigestible and unavailable for assimilation. Heartburn is usually a muscle problem. It involves the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). It’s a ring of muscle that relaxes or opens when food goes down into the stomach and squeezes shut when swallowing is complete. When it’s not being used, it’s supposed to stay shut. But, in the case of heartburn, your LES doesn’t seal completely. This allows stomach acids up into your esophagus. Over time this damages the esophageal lining, leading to inflammation, ulcers, and even cancer of the esophagus. Part of the "close" signal requires stomach acid to get a strong response. Take an HCl (Betaine HCl with Pepsin) capsule with any protein meal and see how much faster your meal digests, with no heartburn. There are many digestive enzyme formulations available that will make digestion a breeze. If you have frequent heartburn you are priming yourself for esophageal cancer. With proper sized meals, adequate HCl and digestive enzymes you should overcome most digestive issues, and improve virtually all bodily functions as a result of increased nutrients available at the cellular level. The next important aid to digestion is a source of friendly bacteria or Probiotics. If you have ever had a course of antibiotics, you have decimated the flora that should beneficially inhabit your digestive track. These bacteria, that we have evolved with symbiotically, are an important part of the digestive process, and create certain vitamins and enzymes for us. They play a vital role in our immune function. By their presence, they inhibit the overgrowth of harmful bacteria such as Salmonella and E-coli, fungi and parasites. I have been the victim of food poisoning on several occasions, and am familiar with the progression of it symptoms. Immediately dosing with several probiotics capsules will normally stop it in its tracks. I always have them on hand, and at any sign of an upset stomach or intestinal stress, I pop two or three capsules and the problem subsides. My favorite brand is FLORA SOURCE, and you can Google for a supplier. For the most part these friendly bugs live beyond the stomach, but some bacteria such as H-pylori will bloom to dangerous and destructive levels unless the stomach is bathed in strong HCl frequently. Using antacids on a regular basis give these critters the advantage they need to infect the stomach lining and promote ulcers. Eat or drink almost nothing with sugar in it, refined or otherwise; give up sodas! All simple sugars and high-glycemic foods will rapidly raise blood sugar, causing an insulin output for the purpose of lowering the blood sugar level back under 83 mg/dl. Glycation (the bonding of sugars to proteins), sited in our Anti-aging Category as one of the four primary aging mechanisms, is an unavoidable consequence of burning glucose as a metabolic fuel. But, research has shown that keeping blood sugar in a range between 74 and 85 reduces glycation, the primary cause of the damage associated with diabetes and high blood sugar. Chronic high blood sugar leads to insulin resistance and sustained levels of both blood glucose and insulin as seen in type II diabetes. Insulin itself is inflammation-promoting, and chronic high levels result in rapid aging of most body tissues. The worst offender these days is high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). It has been hyped as very healthy because it doesn’t cause a rapid insulin response; but its high concentration of unbound fructose has to be mostly processed by the liver, pushing up triglyceride production - as much as 40% is is immediately stored as fat, without the opportunity to be burned as fuel – avoid it entirely. Another of the big offenders today is the boxed breakfast cereal; generally loaded with sugar and refined flour. Even the Granola types increase blood sugar too rapidly, and most are based on hydrogenated fats for shelf life. I haven’t eaten a manufactured breakfast cereal in two decades. I do eat plenty of free-range eggs with diced vegetables lightly stir-fried in butter and olive oil; high in protein, fiber, good fats. Another favorite is cottage cheese or goat-milk yogurt with diced fresh fruit or fresh berries stirred in. I add a little flax oil for omega-3 fats and top it with handful of crushed almonds. I occasionally (cold mornings) use hot whole/multi-grain Muesli with some coconut/olive oil and butter tossed in for extra fat energy, but I generally limit my grain intake to keep blood sugar low. Carbonated soft drinks are highly acidic, and raise blood acidity. The body responds by pulling calcium out of our bones to buffer/reduce the pH of the body’s fluids – not something you want happening to your bones. The sugar load from a soda is enormous; if I were looking for a single significant cause of obesity in children, I would site soft drinks as the number one culprit. Give them up and drink almost anything else. Avoid big glasses of any fruit juices; it is far better for your blood sugar levels to eat the fruit and drink pure water. It is important to avoid high-fructose corn syrup in anything. Fructose is processed by the liver directly, and 40% of intake is stored as body fat. High fructose intake has been shown to rapidly push us toward metabolic syndrome; avoid HFCS like it was a toxin - it is, for all practical purposes, just that! Be cautious and selective regarding grain-based food products! If you have signs of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, irritable bowl syndrome or lupus, try eliminating all grains and grain products. I say this because it is very hard to tell what grain products contain as the constituents of their flour. Gluten is the big offender, but it shows up in many grains, and is not sited as an ingredient. Mankind has lived without grains in many regions and times; archaeological evidence suggests that inflammatory diseases increase in cultures that depend on grains as the prime foodstuff. Two to three weeks are usually all that is required to see a reversal of symptoms if gluten sensitivity is the culprit. These principles fairly well sum up what I have learned about getting the right nutrients from the right foods, digested, absorbed and assimilated. There is much more at the detail level to learn, but this is a very good start to eating right and getting the most out of it. I have mentioned a few supplements that enhance digestion, but the bulk of that topic can be found in our Supplements Category. I want to impress upon the reader that what you eat is the primary basis for your health, or lack-there-of. This information has been long coming to credibility, yet it is amazing to me that my grandmother was aware of most of it from a folk standpoint. One of my goals at Senior Fitness.com is to point our readers to credible sources of information, and to filter out the junk from the treasure. Don’t stop with a shallow understanding of health and fitness; make it your intent to be a life-long researcher of knowledge aimed at keeping your fitness at a peak level for the rest of your life. We will have thousands of words on this website to explain why these ideas are important, but if you begin to put them into practice you will see major improvements in the way you look and feel. Here is a very good place to start - throw away those antacids and start taking these capsule with all your meals (best 1/2 way through the meal): Hcl With Pepsin - 100 Capsules - Solaray More Selection. More Brands. More Service. We carry 957 products from Solaray. Choose from more than 20,000 products and 400 name brands at The Vitamin Shoppe. Sku# SO-1357, vitaminshoppe > Vitamins, Supp & Minerals > Supplements > Enzymes > Betaine Hydrochloride > Solaray Hcl With Pepsin High Potency Capsules We need to expand this topic further to discuss micronutrients - vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes, coenzymes, metabolic co-factors and perhaps thousands of yet undiscovered compounds that perform undiscovered functions in life systems, and specifically how they impact the body's operation, health and longevity. For now I want to point out that nearly all micronutrients arise from the soil in which our food, and the food of the animals we eat, is grown. Plants take all their nutrition from the soil, air, sun and water and build living structures capable of passing on life to following generations and to those who eat them. Animals raised on plants grown in rich soils concentrate these life-giving elements in their bodies, and provide concentrated sources of nutrition for the carnivores and omnivores that eat them. Nowhere is this 'food chain' more obvious than in the sea, where nearly all of the multi-cell life forms eat smaller multi-cell life forms for most of the nutrients to support their life. Nearly all animal life on earth is sustained by eating raw plants or raw animals. The notable exception is Mankind. We cook our foods, for the most part, and damage many of the enzymes and co-factors in the process. We try to make up for soils that are wearing out and losses due to cooking by taking vitamins and mineral supplements. But therein lies the question: how well do our supplements make up for the nutrients missing in our foods? More to come!
