It is a fact that food is a fundamental factor for our well-being. Hence, the importance of a balanced and diet in order to achieve and maintain a full and adequate lifestyle.
In this sense, knowing what is the appropriate diet is a priority. The more informed we are about this subject, the closer we will be to reach a maximum level of well-being.
In this article, we will detail what food and nutrition consist of and how, thanks to Healy’s frequency technology, we can enhance the benefits of proper nutrition.
Food and nutrition
As we know, food is a solid or liquid product that we ingest to provide the necessary nutrients to our body. Food is the process through which we obtain those nutrients, which provide our body with energy.
Nutrients are chemical compounds that are contained in food. These include vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, carbohydrates, glucides, etc.
Nutrition encompasses a broad set of processes that allow the body to use all these nutrients to convert them into the energy that allows it to carry out its life-sustaining functions.
For the health organization, this is a state of physical, mental and social well-being, which is closely related to nutrition. For if we have the right nutrition, we will have a state of well-being and balance. On the contrary, a poor diet leads to deterioration or alterations of physical, emotional and mental type, which can manifest in a wide variety of diseases.
What are nutrients, and how are they classified?
Nutrients are divided into two main groups: macronutrients and micronutrients.
- Macronutrients: they are consumed in large quantities and belong to three groups, which are carbohydrates or carbs, proteins, and fats.
- Micronutrients: they are required in small quantities and belong to two groups, vitamins and minerals. To the latter belong calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, chlorine, sulfur, iron, zinc, iodine, selenium, copper, fluorine and manganese.
Vitamins and their benefits
Vitamins are classified into two types: fat-soluble vitamins (D, A, E, K), and water-soluble vitamins (B complex and vitamin C).
- Vitamin B1 known as thiamine, supports process carbohydrates to provide energy especially to the brain and nervous system. It is also involved in muscle contraction and nerve signal conduction, and is involved in all metabolic processes in the body. Vitamin B1 deficiency can lead to some form of diabetes, or to dependencies such as alcohol.
- Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, works together with other vitamins to support growth, as well as the production of red blood cells and the release of energy.
- Vitamin B3, or niacin, contributes to the proper functioning of the digestive system, skin and nervous system. B3 deficiency can trigger disharmonies such as discomfort in the pharynx, esophagus, stomach, abdominal distension, constipation, among others.
- Vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid, supports growth, supports to break down food, to produce fatty acids, hormones and good cholesterol. Deficiency of this vitamin can cause numbness of hands and feet, headache, extreme tiredness, irritability, sleeping problems, heartburn, loss of appetite, etc.
- Vitamin B6 or pyridoxine supports strengthen liver function, supports to produce hemoglobin and antibodies, and contributes to the breakdown of proteins. B6 deficiency can trigger kidney disease, liver dysfunction and substance dependencies.
- Vitamin B7 or biotin, supports in oxidative processes, which are carried out through the exchange of electrons. Additionally, it supports us to convert carbohydrates, fats and proteins into energy.
- Vitamin B9, or folic acid, aids in tissue growth, proper cellular function and increases appetite when required. Folic acid deficiency manifests itself in some digestive system problems.
- Vitamin B12 is important for protein metabolism, red blood cell production and maintenance of the central nervous system. It is directly focused on the genetic material and its deficiency can cause problems such as lack of energy, fatigue, loss of appetite, pallor, concentration problems, inflammation, redness of the tongue and gums.
Classification of nutrients according to their function
Nutrients are classified into three main groups according to their function in the organism:
- Energetic: this group includes carbohydrates and lipids, which provide energy necessary to carry out all the functions of the organism.
- Structural: made up of proteins, which form the structures of the various organs and tissues.
- Regulators: these include vitamins and minerals, whose function is to regulate metabolic processes.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are made up of molecules of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. When burned, they produce energy and release carbon dioxide and water. They are divided into simple and complex carbohydrates.
Simple carbohydrates are sugar chains that are broken down and absorbed more quickly, but do not cause satiety. They correspond to processed foods.
Complex carbohydrates, on the other hand, are longer sugar chains, which provide satiety, but require more time for absorption.
Proteins
Proteins are obtained through the decomposition of food. Our organism breaks them down to obtain amino acid molecules, which are the fundamental components.
In turn, amino acids form chains that can become more complex until they form structures. They are also composed of other elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.
Proteins have important functions, among which the following stand out:
- Structural function, such as collagen and elastin, for example.
- Regulatory function, some act as hormones, such as adrenaline and oxytocin.
- Transport function, e.g. hemoglobin and globulin.
- In defensive function, they act as antibodies, such as leukocytes and monocytes.
Lipids or fats
They are organic biomolecules formed basically by carbon and hydrogen and generally also oxygen, but in a lower percentage. They are insoluble in water and are divided into saturated and unsaturated fats.
Digital Nutrition App (DNA)
In Healy we have a program called Digital Nutrition, which we find as digital nutrition mixes in the blue dot application.
This module allows you to select different programs of individualized microcurrent frequencies (IMF) to promote the harmonization of the bioenergetic field.
These programs have a great impact on our body, as it applies resonance frequencies for specific vitamins and minerals.
In the application we will find several screens, in the first one we will find programs like harmony in the brain, harmony in the hair, harmony in the skin, harmony in the heart, harmony in the head, harmony in the digestive system, harmony in the muscles, etc.
On the next screen we will find programs such as age, amino acids, harmony in the blood, alkaline powder, harmony in the connective tissue, weight, harmony in the liver, minerals, trace elements, vitamin intake, etc.
Then we locate the screen where programs such as alcohol consumption, antioxidants, harmony in the lymphatic system, spirituality, impurities, childbirth, harmony in the hormonal system, libido, defenses, etc. are displayed.
On screen number 4 we will find programs focused on energy, fatigue, sight, sports, regeneration, men, women, children, psyche, as well as sleep, growth and harmony in the skin.
On the fifth screen are located programs such as breathing, movement, competition, structure, mobility, activation, reduction, effort, circulation, stiffness, lifestyle and energetic.
Finally, we note that on the screen marked with the number 6 are included programs such as harmony in the tissue, biological information, comfort, exhaustion, for mature women, passion, balance, relief, joy of life, among others.
In addition to this wide range of frequency programs, the digital nutrition application provides support for proper nutrition by offering a list of foods that support your vitality, taking into consideration relevant factors such as food preferences.
In conclusion, if you are looking for a way to elevate or improve your nutrition to support your overall well-being, Healy’s Digital Nutrition module presents itself as a formidable alternative.
If you don’t already have Healy, purchase your device today and subscribe to the Digital Nutrition module to experience an extraordinary level of vitality and energy that will take you to your full potential.
