#vitamins promote good vision

[napfordinner]

My lovely friends, this is a friendly evidence-based post pertaining to the risk reduction of a few well-known health effects of 4n4 and mia. Including: Amenorrhea (loss of regular menstrual period), anaemia, digestive upset, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, general well-being, and osteoporosis. It is quite a long post, but please let me know if there’s any other information you would like me to cover. 💕

🪐 Vitamins and Supplements:

• A-Z Multivitamin. Is beneficial for supplementation. For example, Vitamin C is a vitally important vitamin for the body’s connective tissues, including the maintenance of healthy bones and teeth, cellular formation and maturation, resistance to infection, and an increased ability to heal. Additionally, B12 contributes to an adequately functioning nervous system, bone marrow, and intestinal tract. It also acts to increase metabolism of protein, carbohydrates, and fats. Finally vitamin B2 when combined with Vitamin A promotes good vision and healthy skin, as well as assists in metabolising proteins and fats at a cellular level.

• Calcium and Vitamin D. Seek a preparation which offers 1000mg of calcium and 10-20mcg (400-800 iu) of vitamin D. Vitamin D increases the bodies efficacy during the absorption, retention, and metabolising of calcium. Calcium of course being vital for bone integrity and imperative for the prevention of osteopenia/osteoporosis.

• Iron. An appropriate iron intake will restore the functionality of red blood cells, allowing the proper oxygen transportation around the body, increase focus, energy, athletic performance, and sleep. Having a sufficient iron store will alleviate some commonly experienced symptoms of low iron including fatigue, dizziness, pallor, and shortness of breath. It may also reduce the sensation of cold hands and feet.

• Potassium and Zinc. A lack of zinc impairs the ability to smell and taste. Connecting this impairment to nose blindness. For example, a lack of a sense of smell and taste may impair one’s own ability to detect their own bad breath, BO, and other unpleasant smells that others may be able to detect.

• Omega 3’s - Fish oil, Krill oil, Hemp oil, or Flaxseed oil. Improper dietary intake, or supplementation of omega 3 fatty acids will result in areas of epidermal (skin) dryness, hyperkeratosis, and hyperpigmentation. As well as the formation large scales expose underlying tissue, which are easily infected. The hair becomes sparse, dry, lusterless, and brittle, with a reddish tinge. Furthermore, nails become brittle and dull, tear production reduces, the tears are also significantly less oily leading to increased evaporation contributing to chronically dry, red, and itchy eyes.

If oil supplements are scary for you to intake due to calorie fears (there is only approx 25 calories in 2 average fish oil capsules). There are dietary sources of omega 3 that are relatively low calorie including chia seeds, edamame, and seaweed. However they provide little amounts in comparison to supplementation or traditional dietary sources such as fish, avocado, oils etc.

However this should also be considered when deciding whether to supplement omega 3’s - they stimulate the secretion of leptin, a hormone that decreases appetite and promotes the burning of fat. Through the enabling of conversion of dietary fats into body cells for burning as fuel.

🍄 Dietary Intake

•Bone broth (or vegetable broth if meat is not apart of your diet ☺️) I cannot stress how great bone broth is! Extremely low calorie, but incredibly nutrient-dense. It also acts to decrease the inflammation within the gut that many of us will experience due to our dietary habits. Including conditions such as constipation, gastroparesis, liver disease, bloating, abdominal pain, and stomach ulceration.

Bone broth also contains large amounts of protein, collagen, iron, vitamins A and K, fatty acids, selenium, zinc, and manganese. Protein being the most satiating macronutrient can decrease hunger and associated discomfort. Collagen and the variety of micronutrients within the bone broth contributes to joint and bone health. Bone broth will also contribute to hydration.

•Nutrient-dense foods including blueberries l are among the best sources of anthocyanins (antioxidants) that promote brain health and reduce the risk of cognitive decline. Additionally, red tomatoes and red capsicum (Peppers). Tomatoes are the richest source of lycopene, which is a type of carotenoid found in red fruits that has powerful antioxidant effect that may help protect against heart disease and certain types of cancer.

•Fibre is imperative for smooth gastrointestinal function, including regular bowel movements. Fibre is of course typically found in whole fruits and vegetables, beans/lentils, and whole grains. Low calorie fibre sources include: red kidney beans, carrot, and chickpeas. Psyllium, chia seeds are also good sources of fibre. Fibre supplants such as Metamucil may also aid to increase fibre intake. An adequate intake of fibre may reduce the dependence of laxative for bowel movements. Prolonged use of laxatives may create a dependency on them to even have a bowel movement.

🥥 Adequate Hydration

• The best way to ensure adequate hydration is simply by consuming enough water during the day. However, if plain water consumption is difficult, fluid intake will also suffice. Including fluid such as teas, flavoured/enhanced water, diet soft drinks, juices, etc. The optimal fluids to consume in addition to, or instead of simple water to ensure adequate hydration is mineral water, coconut water, or diet electrolyte replacements (Powerade/Gatorade, Pedialyte, Hydralyte). Correct hydration and electrolyte intake will reduce headaches, constipation, and muscle cramps/weakness.

❤️ Reproductive Health

•Amenorrhea is a common experience for those of us with a uterus. However it is imperative to understand that you are more than likely still ovulating despite the lack of a regular menstrual period. Therefore, contraception must still be used. Amenorrhea may be alleviated through dietary supplementation and small changes to the diet to include more micronutrients, but it may not be completely fixed unless there is an increase to body fat percentages.

Vitamin A plays a crucial role in preventative medicine by supporting various aspects of health and wellness. Some of the key functions of vitamin A in the body include:

1. Vision: Vitamin A is essential for maintaining healthy vision, particularly in low-light conditions. It is a key component of rhodopsin, a protein in the retina that helps the eyes adjust to changes in light intensity.

2. Immune function: Vitamin A is important for supporting the immune system and helping the body fight off infections. It plays a role in the development and function of immune cells, such as T cells and B cells.

3. Skin health: Vitamin A is beneficial for skin health, as it helps maintain the integrity of the skin and mucous membranes. It supports the growth and repair of skin cells and may help reduce inflammation and promote healing.

4. Growth and development: Vitamin A is essential for normal growth and development, especially in children. It plays a role in cell growth, differentiation, and gene expression, which are important processes for overall growth and development.

5. Reproductive health: Vitamin A is important for reproductive health in both men and women. It is involved in the production of sperm and the development of the placenta during pregnancy.

Some examples of vitamin A-rich foods include:

1. Liver: Liver (such as beef liver or chicken liver) is one of the richest sources of vitamin A, providing high levels of preformed vitamin A in the form of retinol.

2. Sweet potatoes: Sweet potatoes are a good source of beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A that the body can convert into retinol.

3. Carrots: Carrots are another excellent source of beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A.

4. Spinach: Spinach and other dark leafy greens are rich in beta-carotene and provide a good source of vitamin A.

5. Eggs: Eggs contain vitamin A in the form of retinol, as well as other important nutrients.

Including vitamin A-rich foods in your diet can help ensure that you meet your daily requirements for this essential nutrient and support overall health and wellness. It's important to consume a balanced diet that includes a variety of foods to meet your nutritional needs.

Reclaim Your Rest: The Power of a Good Night's Sleep

Do you ever feel like there just aren't enough hours in the day? We all crave that elusive feeling of being well-rested, but a good night's sleep often feels like a luxury. Yet, sleep is more than just a period of inactivity; it's fundamental to our physical and mental well-being.

During sleep, our bodies repair and rejuvenate. Muscles rebuild, memories are consolidated, and hormones essential for growth and development are released. When we're sleep-deprived, our bodies struggle to function at their best. We become more susceptible to illness, our concentration falters, and our moods can become volatile.

The good news is that prioritizing healthy sleep habits can make a world of difference. Here are some tips to help you reclaim your rest:

Establish a regular sleep schedule: Go to bed and wake up at roughly the same time each day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body's natural sleep-wake cycle.

Create a relaxing bedtime routine: Take a warm bath, read a book, or practice gentle yoga to wind down before bed. Avoid screen time for at least an hour before sleep, as the blue light emitted from electronic devices can disrupt sleep patterns.

Optimize your sleep environment: Ensure your bedroom is cool, dark, and quiet. Invest in blackout curtains and earplugs if necessary.

Limit caffeine and alcohol: While a cup of coffee might give you a morning boost, avoid caffeine in the afternoon and evening. Alcohol may initially make you drowsy, but it disrupts sleep quality later in the night.

Get regular exercise: Physical activity can improve sleep quality, but avoid strenuous workouts close to bedtime.

Remember, a good night's sleep is an investment in your overall health and well-being. By prioritizing sleep and creating healthy habits, you'll wake up feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to take on the day. Sleep well, and you'll be amazed at how much more you can accomplish!

You deserve to feel rested and radiant. Sweet dreams!

Nourish Your Body, Nourish Your Mind: The Power of Colourful Eating

We all know the importance of eating a balanced diet, but did you know that the colours on your plate can have a profound impact on your health and well-being?

Fruits and vegetables come in a vibrant rainbow of colours, each boasting unique phytonutrients—powerful plant chemicals that offer a plethora of health benefits. Here's a glimpse into the magic of colourful eating:

Reds and oranges: Think tomatoes, peppers, and berries. These vibrant hues are rich in antioxidants, which help protect your cells from damage and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer.

Greens: From leafy greens like kale and spinach to broccoli and Brussels sprouts, the green family is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A and K, which are crucial for healthy vision and strong bones.

Yellows and oranges: Sweet potatoes, carrots, and mangoes are bursting with beta-carotene, which our bodies convert into vitamin A. This essential vitamin supports healthy skin, immunity, and vision.

Blues and purples: Blueberries, plums, and eggplant are loaded with anthocyanins, which have anti-inflammatory properties and may help improve brain function and memory.

Adding a variety of colourful fruits and vegetables to your diet is a delicious and nutritious way to boost your overall health.

Here are some tips to incorporate colourful eating into your daily routine:

Start your day with a colourful breakfast: Add berries to your yoghurt, whip up a green smoothie, or slice some red peppers for an omelette.

Rainbow your plate at lunch and dinner: Aim for at least two to three different coloured vegetables with each meal.

Snack smart: Munch on colourful fruits and vegetables throughout the day to keep your energy levels up and cravings at bay.

By embracing colour on your plate, you're not just nourishing your body; you're nourishing your mind and promoting vibrant health. So, get creative in the kitchen and explore the world of colourful foods!

You are what you eat, and with a rainbow of colours on your plate, you'll be a radiant force of health and vitality!

#1930 - Daucus carota - Wild Carrot

Photo by @purrdence​ while she was in Aoteoroa, where the wild carrot has been naturalised since at least 1854.

AKA bird's nest, bishop's lace, Bee's Nest-Plant, Devil's Plague and in North America,  Queen Anne's Lace.

The direct ancestor of the cultivated carrot, which is regarded as a subspecies. The Binomial comes from the Greek for carrot, and the Latin via other Greek for carrot. The English name comes from the French ‘carotte’, which, surprise surprise, means carrot. It’s possible they all trace back to the Proto-Indo-European ‘ker’ for horn, referring to the large taproot.  Daucus carota subsp. sativus translates as “the cultivated carrot carrot”.

The arms of the umbel curl up into a cage after the flowers are pollinated, and the seeds cling to fur and clothing. Curiously, there’s often a single dark pink flower at the center of the disk of white ones. It’s possible this attracts small pollinators (like the Zorion longicorn here) by pretending to be one.

The wild plant can cause contact dermatitis, and some of its very similar-looking  relatives like Hemlock are deadly. The domesticated varieties were originally white-rooted and used as a medicinal plant, an aphrodisiac and to prevent poisoning. On the other hand they may have been using parsnips, since they weren’t entirely distinguished in ancient times. A purple-rooted variety existed perhaps as early as the 700s in Afghanistan and was introduced in Europe by Arabs circa 1100. It was cultivated into the modern orange root in the 17th and 18th centuries in the Netherlands. There are frequent claims that the selective breeding was in honour of William of Orange, but by that time there were already orange carrots, which simply did better in the climate of the Netherlands. 

Another myth revolves around carrots and eyesight - they’re certainly a good source of Vitamin A or retinol, via carotene pigments (guess where the name comes from) and hence rhodopsin, the retinal pigment, but it was propaganda during the Second World War that claimed it was carrots that gave English pilots such good night vision. They were really concealing the invention of Airborne Interception Radar. It’s not clear whether the Germans actually fell for it, but they did start feeding their own pilots more carrots, and the British also promoted carrots as useful during blackouts in the Blitz.

DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF FARM FRESH SUPERIOR A2 MILK AND A2 MILK PRODUCTS

One of the best sources of nutrients for enriching the human body is milk. From birth, the body craves milk for its functions and development. Considering its full, balanced meals, milk is suitable for all age groups, including infants and older people.

But first, the basic difference between A2 milk is that, as opposed to conventional milk, it contains a mix of both A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins. The distinction between A2 and A1 milk is the difference in their protein structures. People who are sensitive to conventional milk or mildly lactose intolerant are the ones to benefit the most from consuming A2 milk, as they can derive even more nutrients without having to upset their stomachs. This does not mean that A2 milk is completely lactose-free (the natural sugar present in milk), but just that it has less of it.

To ensure that you, too, receive all the benefits of milk, we are here to introduce you to our A2 Milk and milk products. Only from the color and consistency of this milk will you be able to easily discern its superior quality. It is free from any clumps, proving the absence of additives in it. Farm Fresh Superior A2 Milk is available only in clean and properly sealed containers to ensure its safety and freshness. After you have procured the milk in your hand, giving it a quick sniff will ease away all your remaining doubts, as its slightly sweet and clean smell will give away its pure nature.

When consumed as a part of a balanced diet, there are a variety of benefits that one could enjoy from milk. This is due to its rich nutrient profile and easy digestibility; below are some of the key benefits of consuming good quality Farm Fresh A2 milk:

Bone Health: Being one of the greatest sources of calcium, A2 milk is essential for building and maintaining strong bones. Even the risk of health diseases like osteoporosis and fractures in old age can be avoided with adequate milk intake.

Protein intake: Even as a vegetarian option, A2 milk contains the essential amino acids that are needed by our bodies to perform their intricate functions. Activities like muscle repair, tissue building, and the maintenance of a productive immune system are all functions that require the presence of ample amounts of healthy protein, which is where milk comes into play. A2 milk is also less likely to cause gastrointestinal issues like bloating or diarrhea, which may be caused by A1 milk in certain individuals.

Vitamins and Minerals: Vitamins such as Vitamin D, Vitamin A, Vitamin B12, riboflavin, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium make the nutrient profile of A2 milk so dense and rare that one should not miss consuming it whenever one can. Roles like energy production, immune function, vision, and overall health require these vitamins and minerals for optimal results.

Gut Health: Milk is also rich in probiotics, beneficial bacteria that can promote a healthy gut environment and microbiome, ultimately aiding digestion and gut health.

Heart Health: Numerous studies have proved that consuming A2 milk and dairy products in appropriate amounts has a connection with lower risks of cardiovascular diseases, as they are quite effective in reducing blood pressure and improving lipid profiles.

Better Digestible: It is considered that A2 milk is much easier to digest as compared to conventional milk, which contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins.

The Power of Vitamin A: A Guide to Radiant Health

Hey there, health enthusiasts! Today, let's dive into the wonderful world of Vitamin A and explore the remarkable benefits this essential nutrient brings to our well-being. Get ready to unlock the secrets of this beauty-boosting, immune-strengthening vitamin!

🌟 The Basics of Vitamin A 🌟

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in maintaining the health of our vision, immune system, and skin. It exists in two primary forms: retinol (found in animal-based sources) and carotenoids (found in plant-based sources).

👀 Nurturing Our Vision 👀

Remember those carrots your parents told you to eat to maintain good eyesight? Well, they weren't entirely wrong! Vitamin A is essential for proper eye health and optimal vision. It helps form a pigment called rhodopsin, which is crucial for seeing in low light conditions. Regular intake of Vitamin A can also protect against age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and dry eye syndrome.

💪 Boosting Our Immune System 💪

A robust immune system is our body's defense against illnesses and infections. Vitamin A plays a vital role in supporting the immune system by regulating the production and function of immune cells. It helps strengthen the skin and mucous membranes, acting as a barrier against pathogens. By enhancing our immune response, Vitamin A aids in preventing and fighting off infections, such as respiratory infections and gastrointestinal diseases.

✨ Skin Health and Radiance ✨

Want that natural glow and healthy skin? Look no further than Vitamin A! This vitamin supports skin health by promoting cell turnover and regulating oil production. It helps combat common skin issues like acne, dryness, and uneven skin tone. Vitamin A also aids in the production of collagen, a protein that maintains skin's elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. So, say hello to smoother, more youthful-looking skin with Vitamin A as your ally!

🍅 Embrace the Sources of Vitamin A 🍅

To reap the benefits of Vitamin A, it's essential to incorporate food sources rich in this nutrient into your diet. Here are some excellent sources:

Animal-Based Sources:

Liver (beef, chicken, or fish)

Eggs

Dairy products (milk, cheese, yogurt)

Plant-Based Sources:

Carrots

Sweet potatoes

Spinach

Kale

Red bell peppers

Apricots

Mangoes

Remember, a well-balanced diet that includes a variety of fruits, vegetables, and animal products can help ensure you're getting an adequate intake of this crucial vitamin.

🌈 The Power of Moderation 🌈

While Vitamin A is vital for our health, it's essential to consume it in moderation. Excessive intake of preformed Vitamin A from animal sources or supplements can lead to toxicity, causing adverse effects on our health. It's always best to consult a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian to determine the right dosage and ensure you're meeting your specific needs.

💊 Supplements: When to Consider? 💊

Supplements can be useful for individuals with specific deficiencies or dietary restrictions. If you're unable to meet your Vitamin A requirements through diet alone, supplements might be a viable option. However, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional before starting any supplements to ensure they're suitable for you.
