Hi Friends, I would like to share the information about my personal experience about nutrition advise that I got from a gym instructor versus a doctor versus a full time nutritionist.
Gym instructor: Asks us to take a protien shake bottle when we are exercising and drink it in between instead of water to gain muscle and stamina. The gym instructor would most of the times advise for the protein that is available with thier company and do no worry about what chemicals or side effects it might cause, because their objective is to provide protien powder to the ones who are exercising and most of the instructors lack the information about the side effects and reactions.
Our body does not accept anything anytime when you want. If you want to give the body something, then we have to slowly accustom the body to be able to take it. Most of the protein powder that is available in the market is chemically created which effects the intestines / stomach problems as well. I would suggest, please just be aware of what you are doing.
My Doctor: I had slight hair fall problem but it was worrying. Most of us worry when the hair starts to fall and we definitely don’t want to get bald. Though in some cases it is inevitable. I was in the this phase where I was loosing a lot of hair when I comb daily. So, I visited a doctor to get some advise on what we need to do. I was asked for a CBP test(Complete Blood Picture) and was advised that I take iron-folic tablets for increasing the iron content in my body. One fine day when I was having my usual dose of iron-folic, I happened to keep my tablet next to a magnet and suddenly realized that the tablet was getting stuck to the magnet. The iron that is used in the chemical tablets is the crude iron that is used for making iron rods where as the iron that I needed was the iron that comes from lady finger / spinach. I had no clue that I was spoiling my health further by taking these tablets rather than improving it.
My Nutritionist: One day, I met a nutritionist and asked what I can do about taking iron without having to intake crude iron from the iron rods. I wanted something that is good for my health. I can spend a few bucks today to save myself from the huge hospital bills that will come tomorrow. I was then told about the Nutrilite - Protien and Iron Folic which comes from organic farms and is of the highest quality. I kept this iron tablet next to a magnet and it does not stick to the magnet. This was the iron that I was looking for. The protien powder of this company did not taste that great in the begining - as it is of a blank taste, but did realize that my body is accepting it very well and felt a lot stronger after using this.
Now coming to the end, I would say - please dont settle with anything that is not the best in your life. You will be as good as you value / respect yourself. Thanks for reading.:)
