Macronutrients: Food & Beverages
|
- Macro-nutrient Breakdown
- Organic vs. Commercial Foods
- Fresh vs. Frozen vs. Canned
- Acid/Alkaline Balance
- Proper Hydration
- Nutrient Timing
- Supplementation
Macronutrients are the the foods and beverages that we intake in large quantities. The food portion is basically composed of Carbohydrates (including alcohol), Proteins and Fats.
Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram and are used primarily for energy.
Alcohol (Carbohydrate) provides 7 calories per gram, and is converted into sugar in our bodies.
Proteins provide 4 calories per gram and are used primarily for tissue synthesis and recovery.
Fats provide 9 calories per gram and are used for storage, insulation and to create hormones.
Organic foods are produced without the use of chemical fertilizers and insecticides. Scientific studies have shown that all organic matter gives off vibrations that can be measured with the proper equipment. Organic foods vibrate at exponentially higher levels that commercially grown foods. People consuming primarily organic foods are rarely sick. Remember our bodies are composed of the foods that we consume.
| Fresh vs. Frozen vs. Canned |
The foods that we consume also contain vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. Fresh foods contain the full spectrum of what they should have. Frozen foods (preferably flash frozen) contains very close to fresh in terms of nutrition. Canned foods are basically inert (no vibrational energy), and have very few nutrients left in them.
Our bodily fluids have a acid/alkaline balance called the PH factor (which is really the measure of parts of hydrogen per measure). It should be slightly alkaline for optimal health. Hard water, most fruits and vegetables (citrus although acidic, is converted to alkaline in the body). Harmful bacteria and viruses thrive in an acidic environment, so when you get sick: Alkalize!
Proper hydration is essential for health and optimum performance. Our bodies use water for cellular respiration and repair, elimination of waste, and to carry nutrients to all body parts. An average person needs 8 glasses of water a day (more for athletic people). This water should be hard water (not all minerals removed) but still purified. That way it retains the proper acid/alkaline balance for optimal health. Structured water is highly recommended as it’s surface tension is able to much better hydrate our cells, including the ones in our brains, nervous system, organs and muscles. A good way to structure water is to always bless your water and/or put a clear quartz crystal in the water container. Find out more about water by visiting water 2.0.
In general you should eat your larger meals post workout and earlier in the day. When consuming meals, always try to eat your protein first, followed by fats and carbohydrates. This slows digestion, feeds your muscles, and prevents an insulin spike (which is caused by eating carbs first) that causes your body to store energy as bodyfat. Avoid processed foods or simple sugars. This is only advisable post workout when you want to store glycogen into the just injured muscles (muscle recovery). Whole foods are always preferable to replenish your body’s glycogen store. Younger, smaller fruits have more energy than their larger and more ripened siblings.
Because of the poor quality of our soils, unless you home garden and rotate your crops, I recommend that yo take some form of supplementation. Superfoods (medicinal mushrooms, goji berry, acai berry, chocolate, hemp, flax seeds and oil. and others). This is most beneficial pre and post workout (or during a stressful time in you life, such as pre-exam) as your body needs the proper nutrients to power your grueling workouts and recover from them as well.
