The new era of scientific tools has opened the doors to a wondrous exploration of cellular health and related gene signaling. The vital emerging theme of all this research is that nutrition powers the health of cells. This amazing research is in many ways bringing us full circle, focusing back to the most basic nutrients and their vital roles in keeping you healthy.
Many of the top health stories of 2013 explain the extreme health benefits of basic categories of nutrients—nutrients you should not be without. While you can and should get a foundation of these nutrients by eating high quality food, dietary supplements are an excellent option for bolstering your intake and ensuring your bases are covered.
#10 – Exercise is Better than any Drug or Combination of Drugs for Disease Prevention
Making the time to consistently exercise continues to be one of the most effective ways to keep your body functioning in a healthy manner as you grow older. Use it or lose it, the choice is yours.

#9 – Multivitamins/ B vitamins are Needed for Gene Function
The word vitamin means “vital amine,” it is something you must absolutely get from your diet and supplements, as your body cannot synthesize vitamins. B vitamins are essential for the smooth operation of your whole body epigenome, which is how your genes express themselves. This epigenome begins to lose efficiency as you age, if you lack vitamins the inefficiency is magnified.

#8 – Fiber and Flora are Your Digestive Basics
While there are at least 10 trillion cells that make up your body, there are at least 100 trillion living foreigners residing in your digestive tract. While these bacteria are much smaller in size than a human cell, their collective metabolic byproducts produce massive amounts of “raw materials” required for healthy human cell function. These friendly flora thrive on the fiber in your diet. Imbalances in this system can produce toxins and undesirable gene signals that interact with your cells, problems that underlie or contribute to the majority of poor health conditions.

#7 – Vitamin D is Required for Whole Body Gene Signaling Efficiency
In recent years the importance of vitamin D has dramatically expanded from its role in bone health. Optimizing vitamin D intake is a basic health step with profound gene signaling benefits for multiple systems in your body. Supplemental D is especially important in the winter months when vitamin D from sun exposure is nonexistent.

#6 – Minerals are Cofactors in Hundreds of Enzymes and Gene Signals
Calcium is more than a bone building nutrient. It helps metabolism, cardiovascular health, and is now a proven longevity factor. Magnesium, easily the most lacking mineral in the American diet, is pivotal to human health. And don’t forget about other minerals like zinc, iron, and selenium. Minerals are required for the structural integrity of hundreds of enzymes that respond to and coordinate the gene signaling in your body.

#5 – Antioxidants Shine, Tocotrienol E and Q10
2013 has been a very good year for antioxidants of all types. Not only are they crucial for defending your body from free radical damage that causes DNA malfunction, each different type of antioxidant offers unique gene signaling support for a dazzling array of dramatic health benefits. I’ll begin with the existing stories of the tocotrienol form of vitamin E and coenzyme Q10.

#4 – Antioxidants Shine, the Protection of Carotenes
When you consume carotenes they slowly and surely accumulate in your tissues and cells and offer stellar defense against damage, helping your body improve its resistance to wear and tear and the demands of your life. If you lack carotene intake then carotenes slowly and surely disappear from body tissues and cells, leading to increased damage and accelerated aging. This year the carotene astaxanthin has made a big splash, though all types of carotenes are quite important to your health. Green foods like chlorella are also an excellent source of carotenes.

#3 – Antioxidants Shine, the Power of Polyphenols
The polyphenols are a structural component of fruits and vegetables that offer high level protection against various stressors a plant may face. Humans use these nutrients for the same reasons, making them indispensable to human health. This years science overwhelmingly makes the case for boosting polyphenol intake, especially ensuring a variety of different polyphenol sources as different types help you in different ways.

#2 – DHA and EPA are Vital for Cell Membrane Health
DHA and EPA, especially DHA, must accumulate in the cell membranes all over your body. They also must accumulate in the membranes of various structures within your cells, such as the mitochondria. You are what you eat when it comes to fat. If you would like a brain made of potato chips then that is your choice. You need 1% - 2% of your total fat intake to be in the form of DHA and EPA. Without enough of these essential fatty acids your health is handicapped.

#1 – Checking Into a Hospital is Incredibly Dangerous
The very same people that want you to believe they are the authorities for health have a rather large dirty little secret. If you over 50 and check into one of their hospitals your odds of getting killed are 1 in 10, just a little better than Russian Roulette.
