SERIESSE IS ON TARGET WITH NUTRITION

Dr. Oz recommends:

Calcium and Magnesium together

Omega 3 DHA

A good multi (because 99% of us don't eat the way we're advised)

What can I say about the green tea? GREEN TEA HAS MORE ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY AND IMMUNE-BOOSTING ACTIVITY THAN ANY OTHER TEA

Tea is the second most popular beverage in the world, after water. It comes in many colors (black, green, oolong and white) based on how the raw leaves are processed. Studies show all types offer superb health benefits. Green tea in particular offers copious amounts of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an antioxidant considered the key to green tea’s healthy qualities. It may contribute to a reduction in risk for human cardiovascular disease and some forms of cancer. It may even keep teeth plaque-free. Drinking tea may also help speed fat metabolism. If nothing else, opting for tea means filling up with a nearly calorie-free liquid that helps stave off hunger pangs. Herbal teas do not derive from the camellia sinensis plant, so they don’t offer the same benefits as traditional tea

Dr. Oz also touched on the acai (ah sigh ee) berry. Look at previous entry re: that. He also said:

The catechins in green tea stimulate the brain!!

What's so great about resveratrol? It turns on a system in your body that prevents your cells from aging! He says in his book, YOU Staying Young, that it changes the chemistry in your body. The book is FANTASTIC!

What is all the buzz about Vit D?

This is the largest deficiency in our country right now. Sixty percent are deficient. It could help prevent cancer, heart disease, MS, JD and infection rates. Helps your immune system to function properly.
