5 - A - Day

Eat plenty of different fruits and vegetables. Diets rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases. Fruits and vegetables provide essential vitamins and minerals, fiber, and other substances that are important for good health. Most fruits and vegetables are naturally low in fat and calories and are filling.

5 A Day for Better Health is a national program and partnership that seeks to increase the number of daily servings of fruits and vegetables Americans eat to five or more. The 5 A Day program provides easy ways to add more fruits and vegetables into your daily eating patterns.

Glyconutrients - The Missing Link?
"Positive Health" Magazine Feb 2002 - Peter Smith LCH, MAHR & Kelly D Ramsay, PA-C "Glycoproteins have been shown to play a vitally pivotal role within the cell"

Introduction

Science and medicine are on an unending quest to break the biocode by which the cells of the human body communicate with one another. This complex code is literally the language of life. As the field of glycoscience emerges, we may consider this cellular language to be the sweet language of life. Glyco is the Greek word meaning sweet. Glycoscience is the study of structure and function of carbohydrates - biological sugars.

Although there are more than 200 known sugars in nature, only eight have been identified as essential. These eight essential saccharides, when combined with proteins and or fats/lipids, provide the building blocks for the manufacture of larger molecules called glycoforms. In fact, glycoprotein molecules coat the surface of every cell with a nucleus in the human body and are required by the body to: maintain healthy endocrine function; modulate immune function (i.e. increase or decrease, where necessary); facilitate cell-to-cell communication; enable the uptake of the other essential substances (the essential fatty acids, essential amino acids, essential vitamins and essential minerals); regulate metabolism.

Phytochemicals: Nutrients of the Future (PDF)
Marcia Zimmerman CN, M.Ed

"Nutraceuticals." "Phytochemicals." "Phytonutrients." "Phytofoods." "Functional foods." Who dreamed up this new terminology? What do these terms mean? Nutritionally high-powered foods aren't new to the natural products industry--we have been selling nutrition-rich foods such as whole grains, lecithin, brewer's yeast and soy products for over 60 years.

What is "new" about these foods, however, is science's added knowledge about the disease-preventing components they contain. Stephen de Felice, M.D., director of New York's Foundation for Innovation in Medicine, is credited with first use of the term nutraceutical. It describes specific chemical compounds found in foods that may prevent disease.[read more]
