Connection Between Nutrition, Cellular Regeneration and Optimal Health

Connection Between Nutrition, Cellular Regeneration and Optimal Health

People often feel challenged trying to understand health information. We hope to change that by giving you not only simple definitions but understandable concepts, so you have the information you want to improve and maintain your health.

This article is about cellular regeneration and its relationship to nutrition.

The body is comparable to a city that is constantly under renovation.

The cells of the body are comparable to building blocks that need regular replacement.

Your body is constantly rebuilding itself, just like a city. Every day, millions of your cells are replaced with new ones.  As with any construction this rebuilding process requires specific materials, which you get from your diet.

What are Some of the Things this Rebuilding Includes?

Proper cellular health optimizes skin renewal, healing, muscle recovery and physical performance. Supporting cellular health can help maintain vigor and vitality even while aging.

Are Your Cells Healthy?

The indicators of unhealthy cell restoration are:

  • Low energy levels
  • Slow wound healing
  • Poor skin appearance
  • Slow exercise recovery
  • Poor sleep quality.

Unhealthy cell regeneration is like hiring a contractor and asking him to build you a perfect replica of the Taj Mahal. He could do it. He is that good. He knows the tools of his trade. But the only materials you give him are plywood and nails. He would do the best he could, but he wouldn’t build that perfect replica. And it wouldn’t stand up the way the original has.

Well, why would your body behave differently?  If you only give it sugar, food additives, and an imbalance of what it needs, it isn’t going to build really good cells that are capable of doing their job.

What Can You Do? 

Here are some questions to ask yourself:

  • What does your typical daily meal pattern look like?
  • Which vegetables and fruits do you regularly eat?
  • How much protein do you typically consume?
  • What are your main sources of healthy fats?

You can then start by changing how you eat and what you eat to provide your body with better nutrition every day. For instance:

  • Ensure you eat regularly and don’t skip meals
  • Make sure you eat breakfast to power up your body for the day
  • "Eat the rainbow" so you are eating fruits and vegetables of different colors every day, such as adding spinach to your morning smoothie and berries to your breakfast
  • Consume healthy fat by adding avocado to your sandwich
  • Eat some protein at every meal.

Meal planning should revolve around what your body needs.

You can evaluate your progress in providing your body with better nutrition and improving your cellular health by monitoring symptom improvement, energy level and sleep quality. Focus on the gradual implementation of changes and celebrate small victories for motivation and compliance.

Want to Know if You are Feeding your Body for Thriving Health or Significant Health Problems?

Poor nutrition leads to cellular degeneration which leads to degenerative health conditions.

What you eat and drink every day really does make a difference to how you feel, how long you will live, and your quality of life.
