The Six Stages of Nutrition - Overview

 

 

How often have you heard someone say something like, "I eat a

nutritious diet?" Maybe you've even said it yourself. But did you

know that eating a "nutritious diet" is only one step in the

process of good nutrition. And just because you eat a "good" diet

doesn't mean you're getting "good" nutrition. You see, diet is

what you eat but nutrition is what your cells actually receive.

There's a lot that goes on between putting good food in your mouth and

assimilating it at the cellular level. So you want to make sure

you're supporting each stage of nutrition to work efficiently.

 

Here's a basic overview of the "Six Stages of Nutrition." I'll

highlight each stage, how it works, why it's important to your

health and what you can do to support its proper functioning. Remember

if you take care of your body, it will take care of you. So let's

begin our journey.

 

Stage #1 Diet:

 

Diet is everything you put into your mouth - the macro and

micronutrients you consume in foods, liquids and supplements, plus the

junk food, alcohol, medications, food additives, pesticides and other

toxins that can interfere with good nutrition. Diet is the stage we

have the most direct control over and the one that has the most impact

on the other five stages of nutrition. So, you'll need to learn how

to make the best choices and how to be sure the diet you consume

provides maximum support for stages 2 through 6.

 

 

Stage #2 Digestion:

 

Your digestive system is designed to breakdown foods into the simplest

nutrients that your body can possibly use. Sounds easy enough,

doesn't it? But then why are billions of dollars spent annually on

digestive medications? You'll find out. I'll cover basic

digestion, some of the causes of poor digestion and how to naturally

improve your body's ability to breakdown the foods you eat.

 

Stage #3 Absorption:

 

This is the process when the simple nutrients (if broken down

efficiently) pass through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream.

How can you make sure this is going to happen for you? We'll take a

look at the relationship between digestion and absorption and what you

can do to improve yours.

 

 

Stage #4 Circulation:

 

Think of this stage as your mass transit system. Everyday, all day,

your circulatory system is transporting nutrients to every cell in

your body. Or, at least, you hope it is, right? What can you do

nutritionally to ensure your transit system isn't on strike? And, if

it is, how can you negotiate an agreeable contract to get your

nutrients where they need to be?

 

Stage #5 Assimilation:

 

Next, if all else has been working properly, each nutrient should pass

directly into your cell to be utilized as cellular nutrition. This is

one of the weakest links for most people. Poor assimilation is why so

many people experience fatigue on a regular basis. If you're tired

of feeling tired, stay tuned and find out what you can do about

creating an abundance of healthy energy - naturally.

 

Stage #6 Elimination:

 

 

The bottom line is elimination. And, if you don't think this is

important, try sticking a banana in your car's tail pipe and see

what happens. Elimination isn't just a bowel or urinary function,

although that's part of the process. Cleansing your body must start

at the cellular level. I'll show you how to clean house - from the

cells out - and how to keep it clean forever.

 

As you can see the Six Stages of Nutrition are dependant on each other

and if just one stage functions improperly it can cause the whole

system to breakdown. Your body depends on your cells getting the

proper nutrition and your cells depend on the Six Stages of Nutrition.

You're only as strong as your weakest cell. So let's make every

cell as strong as possible.
