The Food You EAT And Your Immunity. Are You Doing It Right?

Hey mate,

I hope this finds you better than ever!

I recently shared with you five very simple, yet important lifestyle factors you should focus on for optimal immunity...

And the final one was the importance of the food you are putting in your body...

Now remember, Host Resistance isn't just about protecting yourself (and the ones closest to you) from germs like the flu that might be lurking around.

It's about providing your body the nutrients it craves on a cellular level (it is "cellular fuel") to improve your energy, boost the happiness hormones in your brain (like Sertonin), and maybe most of all...

Give you the foundation you need to avoid degenerative diseases so common in our society...

(Cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease that are increasingly commonplace)

Serious stuff, right?

So what foods should you be eating (DAILY - this is key) to promote optimal health?

(NOTE: The Complete 30 Day Fat Loss Plan outlines a lot of this, so if you want more detail feel free to reference it)

1 - Veggies

It may be no surprise for many of you, but veggies are like the high grade octane of cellular energy.

Why is that?

Because when eaten in variety they can provide a wide range of natural forms of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants your cells need for optimal health. (as well a fat blasting metabolism!)

Here are just a few of my favorites:

- Spinach - Kale- Broccoli - Brussels Sprouts

(note: all of the above are good sources of Vitamin K, Magnesium, Vitamin B6, Iron, and Vitamin C)

This definitely aligns with our "Eat For Nutrient Density" principal.

Kiwi Bonus #1: Mate, if you really want to give your body a boost, look to Antioxidant Support. Some powerful antioxidants include Green Tea, Cocoa, and Coenzyme Q10. If you're taking your Athletic Greens daily, then you're covered because it includes ALL of those and much more...

2 - FATs

You should EAT more fats...

(Yes I know this goes against what most are told by so called "health experts")

But not just any fats...

Because not all fats are good for you...

Your see there are some fats that you want to avoid like the plague...

Those are the highly refined and processed (sometimes industrial grade) vegetable oils so popular in restaurants and supermarkets and just about everywhere.

(it doesn't help that the corporate fat cats from the Processed Food Industry keep pushing their outrageously unhealthy products full of this garbage)

Now these extremely toxic, refined oils include:
- Hydrogenated Soy Bean Oil - Sunflower Oil - Canola Oil - Safflower Oil - And Cottonseed Oil

AVOID them as much as possible...

Not only do they lack in nutrients...

.....And often times contain contaminants..

They are loaded with Omega 6 fatty acids, which consumed in abundance tend to feed the pro-inflammatory pathways in your body...

Now what does this cause?

This can lead to chronic and systemic inflammation and progress factors of even more serious health conditions...

So what should you aim to eat then?

Aim to get healthier fats like:

    Grass Fed Butter (make sure its REAL Butter and not Margarine, which is just as toxic as Vegetable Oils)
    Coconut Oil - My favorite : )
    Ghee (clarified butter, typically Asian restaurants only)
    Rendered animal fat from cleanly raised animals (and even better, wild game)
    Olive Oil as a last resort, but with low cooking temperatures only (feel free to use some olive oil as your salad dressing though)

Kiwi Bonus #2: On the flip side of the Omega 6 fatty acid coin we have Omega 3 fats, which can fight inflammation in your body (in combination with a reduction of Omega 6 intake). Good stuff, right? Well its gets better...

Because Omega 3's come from some pretty tasty food like fatty fish: salmon, shellfish, mackerel, and tuna.

3 - Clean Animal Protein (meat)

Good sources of protein provide the essential building blocks (amino acids) for your cells, tissue and organs.

In other words, good (and delicious) stuff to eat...

But I should warn you that not all meats are good for you..

Mate, cut the USA industrial processed meats out of your diet as you possibly can.

Why? Because often times, many of these "meats" are a combination of ingredients, with some of those ingredients being very bad for your gut health...

(it has been estimated that 80% of your immunity is associated with your gut health)

Some popular additive ingredients for processed meats are Soy and Gluten...

And Gluten can lead to some big gut health problems, which can have a negative cascade affect on so many parts of your health (more on this in a moment)...

Stick with clean meats like:

    grass fed beef
    cleanly raised pork
    grass fed lamb (I am a little biased, but I am a huge fan of New Zealand lamb)
    fish (again, wild salmon, shellfish, mackerel, and tuna are some good ones... I should also mention that these fish are great natural sources of Vitamin D, which is absolutely vital for your immunity)
    and game meats - if you have a friend that enjoys hunting, ask for some deer or elk steaks next time they head out for hunting season

Bonus #3: If you can stomach it, try to eat more Liver (beef) and other organ meats as these can be very nutrient dense forms of protein. Moral Of The Story

FOOD is VITAL for your immunity. And by putting food first, you're giving your body what it needs for optimal immunity.

Now this is something you must do daily.

At the same time, you must avoid the anti-nutrients and toxic foods that can hurt your immunity by jeopardizing your gut health.

That's why having a healthy gut is more than just comfortable bowel movements...

Your immunity relies on it.

Now there's also something else your immunity relies on...

Bonus #3: Your immunity (and many aspects of your health) rely greatly on how much Vitamin D you get daily...

OR...

Looked at the other way around....

If you ARE NOT getting enough of this potent nutrient, you may be setting yourself up for immune system disaster...

IMPORTANT: in the next post, I'll share with you specifically why its so important to your health and how you can ensure you get enough of it..

So keep an eye out on your inbox for that post... It will be a good one.

Go make food quality a priority.
