Ernährung ist alle Vitamine, Mineralien und Lebensmittel, die die Grundbedürfnisse des Lebens decken. Mit anderen Worten, eine gute Ernährung ist der Schlüssel zur Vorbeugung einer Vielzahl von Gesundheitsproblemen.

Everyone wants good health. However, not everyone shares a common definition of health, although a common starting point for each definition would have to include the term “nutrition”. Proper nutrition is necessary to keep the human body functional, but what is nutrition? Simply put, nutrition is everything we consume and what contributes to our health. Nutrition is all vitamins, minerals and foods that cover the basic needs of life.

In other words, good nutrition is the key to preventing a variety of health problems. The diet we consume can either serve to prevent diseases or to promote negative health problems. Physical problems, from chronic fatigue to skin and hair problems, are often related to nutritional problems. A balanced diet ensures that the nutrients are properly distributed to all areas of the body. Conversely, an imbalance contributes to everything, from the feeling of being too tired to get up in the morning, right up to male impotence. The secret is to find a balance that contributes to maintaining a quality of life that only comes from good health.

The human body needs many elements to work properly - to eat properly. At the top of the list is water, followed by carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Each of the elements has the function of keeping the human body healthy, and excess or a lack of an element can have negative health consequences. There are arguments about which of them are most important, but the simple fact is that we have to concentrate on finding a balance that meets the needs of the human body.

Nutrition is the main element for maintaining a healthy nutritional weight. While some nutrients can be obtained from eating nutritional supplements, the available foods should serve to meet the normal requirements of the body. By knowing our nutritional needs, food that meets these needs can be selected. Unfortunately, this ability is not always a matter of course. Every consumer has to take the time to be clear about how the human body works and which foods these functions properly perform.

Only if the nutritional needs are properly covered can humans maintain their health and protect themselves from diseases. And only if you realize that the human body is essentially an engine that needs certain fuels, can people enjoy good health. Vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins and fats are the fuels that ensure the smooth operation of the human body. By finding out which foods these nutrients provide, our collective health can be improved and our quality of life is improved accordingly.
