Nutri-Physical - Nutritional Analysis

Nutritional Analysis

The Customized Way to Optimize your Life

What is Nutri-Physical® Nutritional Analysis?

http://www.shop.com/fsantiago/NutriPhysical-t+260.xhtml

Identifying areas of nutrition where you need extra supplementation is a difficult task. Harder still is wading through the vast assortment of vitamins and minerals that claim to improve your health and well-being. Maybe you have a rough idea of where to start, but why leave anything to chance?

That's why we developed Nutri-Physical Nutritional Analysis, a free tool that can help you chose the proper supplementation regimen based on your diet and lifestyle. The result of your Nutri-Physical are based on overall best fit derived from your answers to a detailed online questionnaire that takes into account diet and exercise, family history personal habits and more.
Unlike other health questionnaires, Nutri-Physical explores all aspects of your diet, lifestyle and fitness to make concrete recommendations. Plus, with a unique color coding system, you can easily identify which products are most important for your health.
Every three to four months, come back to Shop.com and retake Nutri-Physical to receive new supplement recommendations at no cost. It's easy, it's customizable and it's free - three great reasons to take your Nutri-Physical today!

How does Nutri-Physical work?

Nutri-Physical Nutritional Analysis was developed by a team of experts who designed a series of questions around major health-related conditions currently plaguing our nation. After taking the comprehensive questionnaire, your responses are analyzed, calculated, and ranked on a point system. Then, based on this analysis, a daily nutrition supplement regimen is suggested based on your area of highest need and which products best fit those needs.

You'll receive three options: one that includes individual supplement recommendations; a second that creates a personalized Nutri-Physical Custom Cocktail by Isotonix; and a third that includes both individual products and your Nutri-Physical Custom cocktail recommendation. You can decide to choose any of the three options, or customize your supplement order and purchase whatever products you choose.

What can Nutri-Physical do for me?

If you are new to supplementation, Nutri-Physical is an excellent resource for identifying areas of need in your current lifestyle that would benefit from nutritional supplementation. If you are already taking nutritional supplements, Nutri-Physical can serve to reinforce the use of those products or make recommended adjustments that would further optimize your efforts and maximize your desired results.

Feeling Stressed? Part 2

Feeling Stressed? Part 2

Did you know that when our bodies are undergoing a lot of stress it can deplete us of vital nutrients such as our B Vitamins and Vitamin C? This explains why we feel fatigued, exhausted, have muscle tension and our immune system is weak.

Here are some more Nutritional suggestions:

Vitamin B Complex

Vitamin B acts as an important chemical called the co enzyme in numerous metabolic reactions in the body. Niacin, a B complex vitamin is necessary for Tryptophan metabolism which is a precursor of Serotonin. Serotonin is a neuro transmitter which keeps the mind calm. Pyridoxine and Vitamin B12 are necessary for the integrity of nerves. Pantothenic acid which is a B complex vitamin plays an important role in stress relief.

Pantothenic acid (B5) promotes proper neurotransmitter activity in the brain. Pantothenic acid is also known as the anti-stress vitamin because it detoxifies brain tissue, helps relieve physical and emotional stress, and promotes the secretion of hormones essential for optimal health.

“ Vitamin B-12 and other B vitamins play a role in producing brain chemicals that affect mood and other brain functions. Low levels of B-12 and other B vitamins such as vitamin B-6 and folate may be linked to depression.” -Daniel K. Hall-Flavin, M.D.

 

Isotonix® Activated B-Complex- The most powerful absorption you can find on the market.

 Vitamin C

“Vitamin C is a well-known immune system booster, but did you know it also affects the adrenal glands in a big way? Vitamin C is a major player in how stress affects the body, and if you’re feeling stressed out, you need more Vitamin C to meet the demand.

Here’s the problem. If you are getting what you consider is enough Vitamin C, you should be fine. If you become stressed, you need more Vitamin C. If you don’t take that Vitamin C, your adrenal glands will be depleted of this necessary vitamin. This registers in the body as a new stress factor and, well, I’m sure you can see the circular pattern this creates…an never-ending cycle of stress and Vitamin C depletion.
This also explains why stress opens you up to more illness.” -From Dr. Oz Belly Fat Cure

Isotonix® Vitamin C- Absorb into your system in 5 minutes!

Feeling Stressed? Part. 1

Feeling Stressed? Part. 1

Stress affects all of us one way or another. Here are some useful tips to try whether we are going through constant stress, or occasional. If we take care of our bodies, we will be more balanced and it will help us cope and manage stressful situations.

Aromatherapy Massage

For a wonderful, relaxing experience, get anAromatherapy massage. In order to gain full benefit, you need to be ready to relax and let go. There is a great deal of evidence that the state of the mind and nervous system is reflected in the state of the musculature.

Massage and The Nervous System

Stimulates Nervous System = boosting energy

· Calms the Nervous System = relaxing
-- Massage may have a sedative, stimulating or an exhausting effect on thenervous system depending on the type and length of massage treatment given

· Relieves restlessness and insomnia
· Relieves pain due to pinched nerves
· Decreases chronic pain
· Stimulates the release of endorphins (the body's naturalpainkiller)


Use massage as another health care tool


Brush aside any thoughts that massage is only a feel-good way to indulge or pamper yourself. To the contrary, massage can be a powerful tool to help you take charge of your health and well-being, whether you have a specific health condition or are just looking for a great stress reliever.

Aromatherapymassage is especially powerful because it is good for stress as the Pure Essential Oils stimulate our Limbic system, the part of our brain that controls emotions, memories, thenervous system and hormones. Also the oils are absorbed through the skin,enhancing the benefits at a more physical level (pain relief, increased circulation,ect.). http://www.healingfeelsgood.com/

Massage & Nutrition for the Active

Massage for athletes and active individuals can assist your body with recuperation for injury as well as preventing them. Massage therapy can help reduce the pain from recovering injuries or tight areas of muscle. It also promotes the proper healing of scar tissue and provides a soothing effect to any injured areas.

Many of my active clients put themselves on a wellness regimen of massage for preventative care and balance 1x/month. Not only can we catch muscle imbalances on time but we can also treat them before they lead to an injury. This also assists the body with the stresses of physical performance, thus boosting performance level. It gives us time to relax and recuperate.

An athlete who receives massages regularly enhances performance and flexibility.  

For more information on Therapeutic Massage services click here:

 http://www.healingfeelsgood.com/

A very important factor for athletic performance is nutrition. Within our diets, many times we are not provided with the nutrients our bodies need; especially with the active individuals. Those who exercise a lot and stay active need that extra fuel to keep going.

This is one of my favorite formulations. I take it myself, as being a massage therapist is a very physical job. It gives you sustained energy throughout the day providing your body with the nutrients it need at maximum absorption.

Cold & Flu Season...natural remedies

It is here…cold and flu season. Now what do we do?!

 There are definitely ways to get it before it gets us and also natural ways to support our bodies in fighting us in the cases when it does get us.

Here  are some recommendations that I personally use myself and for my clients:

In 1 teaspoon of Carrier Oil (eg. coconut-fractionated almond, olive) add 5 drops of Shield Synergy Blend (Basil, Cypress, Eucalyptus, Ginger, Lavender, Lemon, Orange, Peppermint, & Ravensara)

http://www.fernandasantiago.com/synergy-blends/ and use as a chest and back rub. This oil is warming and feels great when applied. Just make sure you dilute it, as it is concentrated.

 

Sheild is a great wellness formula that supports the respiratory tract, boost the immune system, has anti-viral effects and its uplifting of mood and energy levels, helps with body aches and much more!

 

It is also great to add to a diffuser or a spray bottle to kill air pathogens.

 

Another excellent oil to add to your box is Clove Bud Essential Oil. It has the highest anti-oxidant capability of any essential oil! Its primary natural chemical component is eugenol. Now what does this mean?

What it means is that it is highly anti-bacterial, pain relieving, warming.

 

The essential oils of Clove & Rosemary have been tested in studies and possessed significant antimicrobial effects against Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, and tuberculosis bacillus.

You may try diluting 2 drops of clove Bud Essential Oil in 1 teaspoon of carrier oil and massage lightly around the neck to help support the lymphatic nodes during a cold/flu.

You can find clove oils at:

http://www.fernandasantiago.com/essential-oils/

 

 

Let us not forget that everything starts from within, so we have to make our bodies well from the inside. These are some of my favorite supplements to have on hand, not only to treat flu, but can be taken year round to keep our immune system strong to fight anything in our way:

Isotonix® Vitamin C

 

 Vitamin C plays a significant role in a variety of metabolic functions. It strengthens the immune system and helps in the synthesis of collagen, which strengthens the cardiovascular system.

You can find it at: http://www.shop.com/fsantiago/561800360-p+260.xhtml?vid=214196

Isotonix® OPC-3®

 

http://www.shop.com/fsantiago/561800349-p+260.xhtml?vid=214196

 

Isotonix OPC-3® is an isotonic-capable food supplement that is made from a combination of bilberry, grape seed, red wine and pine bark extracts, and citrus extract bioflavonoids, all found to be powerful antioxidants. The most powerful antioxidants available!

Ultimate Aloe® Juice

 

Supports a strong immune system!

There you have it everyone. These are great ways to help your body from the inside and out during cold & flu season. I will be happy to answer any questions or comments you may have.

The Aromatic Bath

The Aromatic Bath by.Fernanda Santiago

"The way to health is to have an aromatic bath and scented massage every day."  - Hippocrates

For centuries, people always used therapeutic baths to help relieve their ailments or just for general health and well being.

Hippocrates, known as the Father of Medicine, learned about the healing properties of aromatic baths from the ancient Egyptians. He subsequently developed teachings about using water as a form of treatment, which he called hydrotherapy. Cleopatra was famous for her beautiful skin. Her secret was that she soaked in baths of fresh milk and herbs.

Bathing with essential oils is a harmonious synergistic combination. The soothing and relaxing properties of warm water compliment the effects of therapeutic essential oils. Aromatic baths can provide relief from stress and anxiety, assist with muscle pains, or offer a sensual introduction to a romantic evening with your partner.

Bathing to me is one of the most important rituals I will never do without. My bathroom is my sanctuary. The warm water alone is pleasant, but with the added benefits and aromas of the essential oils and mineral salts...it doesn’t get any better then that!

Bathing is a time to relax and let go, while you allow the oils to work with you both physically and mentally. A relaxing way to calm down tired bodies and relieve stress. It allows us a few moments to slow down, think, and meditate which can create wonders for the body and mind. Bathing is one of the best ways to receive the many benefits of the essential oils physically (through your skin) and emotionally (by inhaling the aromas).

The vapors rising from the hot water enters your olfactory system and lungs; while the warm water opens your pores allowing oils to enter your circulatory system. Using essential oils in the bath is as simple as adding 10 drops just before you enter the tub!

So, why take an Aromatic Bath?

Aromatherapy baths are..

Relaxing for your entire body. You can achieve better concentration and think more clearly whenever you permit yourself to unwind and relax. Combining a warm bath with aromatherapy creates the ideal environment for your body to release stress and can help induce restful sleep. Several essential oils have nervine (relaxes the nerves), andanxiolytic (anxiety-reducing), properties. Your aromatic bath will make you feel more rejuvenated and assist with coping with life’s demands.

Pain relieving - There are many essential oils that relieve pain and inflammation from muscles and joints. Some essential oils increase blood circulation, have anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, and warming properties. Most people refrain from physical activity when there in pain. Essential oils can help with general sports injuries and soreness from hard workouts, or to relieve arthritis and chronic pain. What a better way to absorb these oils then with a warm aromatherapy bath?

Detoxifying -Detoxification of your body through bathing is an ancient remedy that anyone can perform in the comfort of their own home. Your skin is known as the largest organ in your body and toxins are excreted through sweating. An aromatherapy bath will assist your body in eliminating toxins, as well as absorbing the minerals and nutrients that are in the water. According to author Debra Gilbert in her book, "Release, Relax, Revival: A Holistic Approach to Body Detoxification," detox baths combining Epsom salts and aromatherapy oils cause you to perspire, helping to eliminate toxins from the body. Essential oils can help cleanse and purify the body, stimulate Lymphatic drainage and circulation, reduce the appearance of cellulite, and act as a toner and diuretic.

Stimulate Cell Renewal- Improving the appearance of skin Respiratory -The steam from hot baths and aromatherapy may help open up your airways and facilitate breathing. Essential oils that help with the respiratory passage and open the sinuses include Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Frankincense, and Cypress.

So take out time to relax and unwind, while your body absorbs the healing power of therapeutic oils, in your own Aromatic Bath.

Below are some recipes and examples of blends you might want to try:

Simple Therapeutic Bath Salt Recipe
