Nutrients we need:

Glucose Provided by carbohydrates; needed to produce cellular energy 
Amino acids Protein building blocks 
Fatty Acids Fat building blocks 
Fiber Stool softener and intestinal sweeping brush 
Antioxidants / Vitamins Neutralize oxidants. Vitamins (A, B, C, D, E ), phytonutrients(carotenoids, polyphenols), others (CoQ10) 
Minerals ~ 25 of the 92 naturally occurring major and trace mineral elements are essential for life. Magnesium, sulfur, selenium, zinc, manganese may not be sufficiently present in diet and may need to be supplemented. 
Enzymes Make things happen! Composed of amino acid chains, enzymes act as catalysts to speed up biochemical reactions in our body. 
Probiotics – “For Life!”
More than 2/3 of your immune system is in your gut, dependent on a healthy presence of microflora. 
Food electrons Needed for cellular energy production Harmful Foods / Practices

Genetically modified foods / GMOs GM plant or animal foods having adverse health-effects. DNA molecules from bacteria, viruses, insects, plants, animals, humans are combined to form new genes to transfer to plants for herbal tolerance of weed-killer and / or insect-resistance, or animals / fish for selective breeding of desirable traits 
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) 
Aspartame This sugar-free sweetener is a neurotoxin 
Sucralose 0 calorie sweetener is a harmful organochlorine 
Chlorination Disease-causing disinfectant in your water 
Fluoridation Mega health fraud 
Microwaved food - Not so convenient for your health Harmful when eaten to excess

High Fructose
Corn Syrup (HFCS)
Too much fructose 
Too much sugar 
Too much caffeine 

Antinutrients Particularly lectins (e.g. prolamins, agglutinins) and phytate in IMPROPERLY prepared WHOLE grains, seeds, nuts and legumes. Lectins can cause a “leaky gut” inflammation leading to IBS, allergies, asthma, arthritis, anemia, obesity, +++ ; Phytate can cause malabsorption of magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, and zinc; 
Alcohol Moderation is the key Good general food choices

Daily 'No-brainer' 💡
"Make-it-Happen" smoothie:This daily drink with supporting supplements contains nutrients typically missing from our diet to restore / maintain physical and mental health. It includes the Rath-Pauling therapy at maintenance level providing important antioxidant vitamin C and amino acids for building collagen, also Omega-3 fats, magnesium, iodine, and vitamin D 
RECOMMENDED DAILY SUPPLEMENTS CHART 
Grown in your native environment i.e. locally grown and in season 
Organic – What does that mean? Natural, unprocessed and organic (chemical/GMO-free). 
Glycemic Index (GI) vs. Glycemic Load (GL) A food's glycemic index indicates how much it raises blood sugar, but its glycemic load (GL) gives a gives a truer comparison between foods, since it accounts for typical serving size. 
What foods does the bible
say are good to eat or not?
Cooking to preserve nutrients Aim for at least 1/3 raw. Raw food contains enzymes, which are destroyed by heat. Some nutrients are made more bioavailable by heating, some are destroyed.

Iodine (not iodide) against microbes - Blood cleanser / disinfectant / antiseptic
IODINE:
Some antimicrobial uses for iodine
Even at very dilute (1/170,000) concentrations:
- Iodine destroys single-celled microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, by denaturing their membrane proteins.
- Iodine reacts with the amino acids tyrosine and/or histidine showing on the outer membranes of the microbes. This simple chemical reaction causes the protein that these amino acids are attached to, to stop functioning properly. As with all halogens, iodine is less effective against cryptosporidia.
- Only iodine (the oxidized state)not iodide (the reduced state) has antiseptic and antibacterial properties
Iodine “Disinfects” blood
- It takes about 18 minutes for all the blood in the body to pass through the thyroid gland to be mildly disinfected.
- Also iodine enters the blood stream after consumption.
Iodine used to purify water
Iodine’s action is dependent on its concentration, the water temperature and the duration of contact. A concentration of 8 mgs /L or ~8000 PPM (1 liter = ~1quart) at 20°C will destroy all pathogens if left for 10 minutes.Lower concentrations and water temperatures require longer. You can use tincture of iodine, iodine crystals and tablets.
- Lugol’s solution. Contains 5% iodine and 10% potassium iodide. Add 3 drops /L water.
- Tincture of iodine. Not preferred source; contains 2% iodine / 2.4% sodium iodide in 50% ethyl alcohol (which has no purification effect) – adequate levels are normally achieved by using 8 drops /qt of water or 2 drops to an 8oz. glass.
Vitamin C can remove most of iodine taste from water AFTER disinfection. Neutralize the iodine with dissolvable vitamin C tablets /powder, lime or lemon juice (allow time for action). Note: this also stops the disinfectant action.
Iodine used to disinfect swimming pools
Iodine is a superior choice than chlorine to disinfect swimming pools. Effective, safer, and less expensive than chlorine with the use of iodine at 1 to 2 PPM; EFFECTIVENESS OF IODINE FOR THE DISINFECTION OF SWIMMING POOL WATER
