JAY’S TEEN WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGERS’
SUPPLEMENT PROGRAM
JJ Virgin, CNS, CHFI
In Dr Phil’s Book, The Ultimate Weight Solution, he says that if you are overweight, then you are malnourished, by definition, because so many of the foods you are choosing are nutritionally bankrupt. This bold statement is backed up repeatedly in the scientific literature, most recently in the June 2003 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. A recent study reported there showed that most Americans weren’t even getting the Recommended Daily Intake 1 (RDI) of vitamins and minerals, much less the optimal levels of them and that this suboptimal intake of vitamins and minerals is a risk factor for many chronic diseases (heart, diabetes, cancer…). A summary of current research clearly shows that those who don’t supplement with a high quality multivitamin/mineral and antioxidant formula are at risk for deficiencies 2.
The problem gets even bigger with children and teenagers who are notorious for not eating the recommended daily intake of fruits and vegetables. A study published in November of 2000 in the Medical Journal of Australia found a significant relationship between cognitive function and intakes of various nutrients including Omega 3 Fatty Acids, antioxidant vitamins, folic acid and B-12. For this reason we gave the teenagers Essential Multi Packets, a high quality multivitamin/mineral and antioxidant formula, and Omega Supreme Softgels omega 3 fatty acids. Fish oils have a lot of fantastic benefits for your heart, brain and joints. You need to ensure that you are getting a high quality brand here as these can be rancid or contain PCBs and heavy metals thus turning them into a health risk instead of a health benefit.
Think of supplementation with high quality vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and essential fatty acids as your daily health insurance. Make sure that the supplements you take are from a reputable, high quality company. Your body can only use what it absorbs so you want to make sure that the company you choose starts with the best raw ingredients and then combines them in forms that your body can use most effectively.
