Why is good nutrition so important?

I always knew it was good to eat right and exercise.  But I never really understood what happens to your body when it doesn't get what it needs from the food we eat.  Stress, combined with foods that are seriously lacking in nutrients contribute to the break down of the body in various ways.  This leads to fatigue, sickness and disease.

In June 2007 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis after the birth of my second son.  I was only 26 years years old and was devastated!  I was exhausted to the point that I couldn't even blow dry my short hair without stopping in the middle to rest.  I had terrible headaches and tingling and numbness down the whole left side of my body.  I could barely take care of myself, let alone my family and home.  I didn't know what to do, but I did know that I didn't want to be on the medications my doctor was offering.  I knew there had to be a better way and so I started searching for it.  For the next year or so, I changed my diet radically to where I was eating fruits, vegetables and very little meat.  Everything I ate was organic too.  I was taking 5-6 vitamin supplements and 5-6 herbs a day!  I also went to massage therapy once a week.  Needless to say, it was costing a lot of money, but I was doing what I thought was best for my body.  I was the sickest healthy person I knew.

After a year of doing all this, I wasn't much better.  Although I had a little more energy than before, it wasn't much.  I still spent most of my time on the couch.  The tingling and numbness was gone from my left side, but then it moved into my right leg and no matter what I did(or didn't do), my leg was continuing to become more and more numb.  I still had a lot of digestive issues.  I was severely depressed and desperate to feel better.

So I decided that I would try the medications.  What other choice did I have?  Then I got a call from a lady that knew my husband's family and knew I had MS.  I did not know her, but she wanted to share some information about something that might help my MS.  She told me that it wasn't anything but good nutrition.  A supplement called Reliv.  I told her I wasn't interested because I had already tried so many things.  She asked if she could at least share a story with me and I said she could.  I then listened to a story of a woman who had my same disease and Reliv had helped her.  After hearing her story, I knew I had to give it a try, or I would always wonder.

I got started on the product and went on to get great results my own!  Within the first three months my health had dramatically improved and I was feeling better than I had in YEARS! Even though I was eating the healthiest foods and taking supplements before Reliv, I still wasn't feeling good.  Three months on these products and I was feeling so great! I also met many others who were getting results diabetes, cancer, weight loss, high cholesterol, energy, better sleep and the list could go on forever!  I was amazed by what this good nutrition was doing for others!

So why is good nutrition so important?  I say "good nutrition" because not all nutrition is created equal.  Good nutrition feeds our cells and helps the body to produce new and healthy cells.  Those healthy cells help the body to function the way it is supposed to!  If you would like more information about what Reliv is all about click here.
