Nutritionist teaches you how to combine foods A sedentary lifestyle with frequent snacking, coupled with a lack of exercise and excessive gaming or sleeping, will only lead to fat accumulation and a failure to build muscle, resulting in an unremarkable appearance! Whether for children or adults, weight gain is 80% exercise and 20% diet. Exercise effectiveness depends on genetics; some people are born with poor muscle tone and endurance, making not every type of exercise suitable for them. Children, in particular, rely heavily on diet for muscle regeneration. A healthy diet for weight gain involves more than just meat; it requires a variety of nutrients. 1. Vitamin C Vitamin C is commonly used to promote healthy muscle growth, strengthen connective tissue and skin, aid in wound and bone healing, and enhance resistance to infection. It is typically obtained from citrus fruits such as strawberries, kiwis, lemons, tomatoes, and green leafy vegetables. 2. B vitamins ​​ The B vitamins complex includes vitamins B2 , B3 , B6 , and B12 . B vitamins help promote red blood cell formation in children, strengthen metabolism, produce energy, and enhance the circulatory and nervous systems. They also act as coenzymes , assisting enzymes in metabolizing nutrients. B vitamins can typically be obtained from the following foods: meat, chicken, fish, eggs, nuts, milk, beans, cheese, and soy products. 3. Magnesium​ Magnesium protects the body by reducing inflammation and can accelerate recovery after exercise. Magnesium deficiency can disrupt heart rhythm; the heart needs magnesium ions to function properly, pumping blood throughout the body and promoting circulation. In addition, magnesium deficiency can cause muscle tension and prevent nerves from relaxing. Therefore, magnesium promotes muscle growth and repair. Foods rich in magnesium include: almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts, and bananas. 4. High-purity Omega 3 and Vitamin D A study published in * Nature Aging * involving 777 older adults found that supplementing with Omega-3 and Vitamin D while engaging in home exercise significantly slowed participants' biological age (measured by the DNA methylation clock) after two years . The study further confirmed that consuming high-purity Omega-3 and Vitamin D together helps fight inflammation, repair muscles, improve athletic performance and recovery, and contributes to muscle protein synthesis. Belgian WHC fish oil is IFOS certified, manufactured by a leading German pharmaceutical company, and meets the highest international standards. It is among the healthiest oils, targeting high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar – just take 1-2 capsules daily for maintenance and maintain your energy every day.

As children grow, they need different nutrients to build strong bones and a healthy body. As children get older, their ability to store calcium in their bones gradually decreases. Insufficient calcium intake during early childhood can affect bone strength later in life and even lead to osteoporosis. Nutritionists recommend five of the best calcium-rich foods to help children get enough calcium during this crucial period. Functions of calcium Calcium is responsible for muscle function, nerve transmission, and hormone secretion, but these functions account for less than 1% of the total calcium in the human body ; the other 99% is found in bones and teeth, which help to enhance strength and structure. Calcium intake at different ages Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and needs to be replenished regularly. The recommended intake is 200 mg for infants; 260 mg for infants aged 7 to 12 months ; 700 mg for children aged 1 to 3 years ; 1,000 mg for children aged 4 to 8 years ; and 1,300 mg daily for adolescents aged 1 to 18 years (to promote growth during puberty). There are many calcium-rich foods, so children do not need to take high doses of calcium supplements (such as 1,000 mg per day) to supplement calcium. Depending on the child's age and dietary calcium intake, 200-500 mg of calcium per day is sufficient, and calcium intake should all come from the child's daily diet.  Calcium storage during golden period As we age, the body loses its ability to store calcium in bones. When children enter early adulthood, their bones reach peak bone density, and the body primarily draws calcium from the stores in their bones. The body's need for calcium peaks between the ages of 9 and 18 ; insufficient calcium intake during this period can affect bone strength later in life, potentially leading to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition that makes bones so brittle that they can break under the pressure of bending over. 5 Best Foods to Eat Best calcium-rich foods #1 : Dairy products  Milk, cheese, and other dairy products are rich in calcium and are often the best sources for calcium absorption. Skim cheese has the highest calcium content, followed by skim milk and low-fat cheeses such as Cheddar . However, the absorption rate of calcium from cheese is inhibited by its phosphorus content, so it's important to consider the type of natural cheese when choosing it. Natural cheese contains organic phosphorus, which has a lower absorption rate than the inorganic phosphorus added to processed cheese. Therefore, if you are concerned about phosphorus levels, it's better to eat natural cheese. How can parents tell if the cheese sold in the supermarket is natural or processed? Besides checking the English label for " Processed cheese" or "Natural cheese ," you can directly check the ingredients. If it lists a long list of additives, it's very likely processed cheese, while cheese with few ingredients is mostly natural cheese. Everyone should pay more attention to processed foods to avoid unknowingly consuming too much phosphorus, which can affect the body's calcium levels. Best calcium-rich foods 2 | Grains Grains are typically rich in calcium, and fortified grains provide up to 100 milligrams of calcium per serving.   Best calcium-rich foods #3 : Canned salmon Besides dairy products, canned salmon is one of the best dietary sources of calcium. Making salmon sandwiches for breakfast is very beneficial, as they also contain vitamin D , which helps the body absorb more calcium.   Best calcium-rich foods #4 : Soy products Legumes contain a lot of fiber, and soy products include tofu, soy milk, and canned baked beans .  5 Best Calcium-Rich Foods | Leafy Green Vegetables  Among cabbage, broccoli, and kale, cabbage has the highest calcium content and also contains vitamins A and C. One cup of cooked leafy greens provides more than 40% of the daily recommended intake of vitamin A and nearly two-thirds of the daily recommended intake of vitamin C ; one cup of raw broccoli contains about 35 mg of calcium, while the same amount of cooked broccoli contains 76 mg.   Foods that hinder calcium absorption  Calcium is an essential nutrient and is found in many foods such as milk, cheese, and yogurt. However, many foods can hinder calcium absorption. According to the National Institutes of Health, humans absorb about 30% of their calcium from the food they eat . In addition to diets rich in phytic acid (found in legumes, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, etc.) and sodium, diets low in vitamin D can also lead to poor calcium absorption. Because phytic acid binds with calcium and other minerals, effectively preventing absorption, excessive sodium consumption forces the body to draw minerals from bones to achieve balance, resulting in an overall net loss in absorption. The Importance of Vitamin D in Supplementing Calcium in the Human Body  Vitamin D deficiency can disrupt the overall regulation of calcium, making it crucial for calcium absorption. WHC Little Superman and Little Elf fish oils are IFOS 5-star certified in every batch , boasting high Omega-3 content to promote children's eye and brain development , enhance memory, and strengthen cognitive and comprehension abilities . The rTG form of the fish oil offers four times the absorption efficiency, and the added vitamin D3 promotes calcium absorption and boosts immunity ; suitable for children aged three and above .

Joint inflammation is a common ailment among busy urban dwellers. Patients often experience migratory pain, with no fixed location. Cold, dry weather exacerbates this, leading to stiffness in the muscles surrounding the joints. Joint pain can manifest in the spine, neck, shoulders, fingers, knees, and hips. If not addressed promptly through diet, joint problems can progress to severe joint pain and degeneration. Inflammation is the body's immune system's response to stimulation, injury, or infection. When the body becomes hot or red, this is the inflammatory mechanism working normally. This is a normal reaction (actually a good thing) and a natural part of the recovery process. However, chronic inflammation can have negative effects on the body and health, leading to weight gain and many diseases. In addition to the factors mentioned above, some people are more prone to joint pain due to genetics, and stress, inflammatory foods, and insufficient physical activity can increase this risk. Therefore, when we change our lifestyle and diet, we can not only reduce the risk of joint pain, but may even keep this disease away from us forever. Processed meat People with joint pain should avoid ham, bacon, and sausages. Processed foods (such as fast food, frozen foods, and processed meats) are a major cause of inflammation. Fried foods and partially hydrogenated oils contain trans fatty acids, a type of modified unsaturated fatty acid that increases inflammation. Red meat Red meats such as pork, beef, and lamb contain a lot of hidden fat. Conversely, the more red meat and processed red meat you consume, the higher your inflammatory markers will be. Therefore, it is recommended to replace them with more white meats such as fish and poultry. fatty foods During the oxidation of fat in the body, ketone bodies are produced, and excessive ketone bodies can irritate the joints. Therefore, it is recommended that people with rheumatoid arthritis or joint pain avoid high-fat foods such as fried foods, mooncakes, glutinous rice balls, zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), fatty meat, and milk. Refined flour products and refined foods Avoid refined starches such as cakes, cookies, and pastries; and avoid foods containing white sugar, rock sugar, sugary drinks, and refined carbohydrates. These foods contain substances that can exacerbate inflammation. Tobacco and alcohol Cigarettes contain nicotine, which causes vasoconstriction, reducing blood supply to the hands by 30%, leading to chronic ischemia and hypoxia in the fingertips. Secondly, tobacco metabolites interfere with the immune system, increasing the level of anti-cyclic citrulline antibodies. These antibodies are directly related to joint bone destruction and, together with alcohol, can trigger gout, exacerbating joint problems. People with joint pain should eat more of the following foods: Tomatoes and carrots Lycopene in tomatoes helps inhibit osteoclasts, cells that break down bone tissue. Japanese pharmacist Hiroya Takahashi points out that while lycopene lacks the activity of vitamin A, it is the most potent antioxidant among all carotenoids. The human body cannot synthesize lycopene; it must be obtained from external sources. After entering the body, it is transported to the bloodstream via the lymphatic system and eventually delivered to many tissues and organs. Carrots contain vitamin A, a natural antioxidant with strong antioxidant capabilities, which can enhance the body's resistance and reduce inflammation. fruit Eating more fruits containing flavonoids, such as oranges, pears, pineapples, papayas, and bell peppers, may help suppress joint inflammation. These fruits also have antioxidant properties, which can reduce free radicals and slow down joint degeneration. Citrus fruits, in particular, can help suppress joint inflammation. green tea Green tea contains four basic phenolic compounds, among which polyphenols are antioxidants that can reduce inflammation and slow cartilage damage. However, not all green teas contain the same amount of polyphenols; matcha powder (made from ground green tea leaves) has a higher concentration than steeped green tea. Studies have shown that green tea can reduce inflammation and damage to joints caused by rheumatoid arthritis. Fish (Omega 3 fatty acids) Omega-3 fatty acids are unsaturated fatty acids that not only maintain the health of the heart, cardiovascular system, eyes, and brain, but also possess anti-inflammatory properties and can alleviate chronic inflammation. The anti-inflammatory activity of Omega-3 fatty acids can effectively improve arthritis, gout, and enhance muscle activity. Additionally, Omega-3 fatty acids can moisturize the skin, reduce inflammation, help improve sensitive skin, and enhance anti-inflammatory capabilities. Those with unbalanced diets or who cannot ensure a daily intake of 1200 mg of Omega-3 should choose high-quality supplements. WHC Little Princess and Little Golden Egg use wild deep-sea fish roe from Peru and Chile with a purity of up to 95% Omega-3. Each capsule contains 1200 mg of pure fish oil in rTG form, which is more easily absorbed by the body. The EPA:DHA ratio is the golden ratio recommended by experts at 3:2 to prevent inflammation; it is also combined with Vitamin D3 to supplement calcium for bones and prevent joint pain . Made with wild-caught deep-sea fish fry from Peru and Chile; formulated in rTG form for easier absorption; contains up to 95% pure Omega-3, effectively improving cardiovascular health; includes patented reduced coenzyme Q10 from Kaneka Corporation of Japan, reducing heart failure, spasms, and chest tightness, while also promoting heart health after stent placement and preventing restenosis; contains vitamins K2 and D3 to stabilize calcium and phosphorus metabolism; combined with high-purity fish oil for strong antioxidant effects , calcium absorption , and prevention of joint pain .

Unbalanced diet during the long holidays? Fish oil fat-reducing program | Triple benefits of burning fat, protecting joints, and reducing stress! After a long vacation, when returning to work, many people will find that they have accumulated belly fat during the holidays. Weight loss has once again become a hot topic. In fact, you don’t have to go on a diet to lose weight. Fish oil , as a health supplement, has also received much attention in Hong Kong in recent years. Does fish oil make you fat? Expert consensus explains your doubts The rumor that "fish oil makes you fat" has deterred many people from taking fish oil. However, according to the "Chinese Expert Consensus on Medical Nutritional Treatment of Overweight/Obesity (2016 Edition)", during the period of energy restriction (i.e. dieting), supplementing with foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids or fish oil in moderation can help improve weight loss. Although there is limited evidence on the effect of taking fish oil alone on body weight and body fat, it has a positive effect on improving waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and blood lipid indicators. Whether you need to lose a lot of weight or want to fine-tune your body shape, it is worth a try. 1. How does fish oil help reduce fat? Three scientific principles Improve metabolism and optimize fat structure Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids in fish oil help promote the entry of fatty acids into mitochondria, enhance fat oxidation, make fat easier to convert into energy, and at the same time improve insulin sensitivity, which helps control body fat. Reduce SREBP-1 and reduce fat synthesis SREBP-1 is a protein closely related to obesity and diabetes. Fish oil can inhibit the activity of SREBP-1 and reduce the synthesis of triglycerides. It is particularly effective in reducing visceral fat and improving waist circumference. 2. Build muscle, protect joints, and improve athletic performance The process of losing weight requires not only reducing fat, but also protecting joints and strengthening muscles. During exercise, joint pressure increases, which can easily lead to discomfort. Fish oil can help reduce muscle fatigue and joint wear after exercise, and improve athletic performance . In particular, fish oil products containing NEM eggshell membrane ingredients (such as WHC joint fish oil), which add patented NEM eggshell membrane and high-purity Omega-3, can more effectively protect cartilage health and reduce joint discomfort. Studies have shown that daily intake of NEM® 500mg for four weeks can significantly reduce joint discomfort, which is equivalent to the nutritional intake of 40 eggs. References: Eggshell membrane: A possible new natural therapeutic for joint and connective tissue disorders. 3. Fish oil helps relieve stress and inhibits cortisol secretion During the weight loss process, the stress hormone cortisol can easily rise due to exercise or excessive stress, affecting mood and even hindering muscle gain and fat loss. Omega-3 in fish oil can help reduce cortisol, stabilize mood, improve sleep, and promote rapid recovery of the body , which is suitable for both men and women. Omega-3 and Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce body fat accumulation, promote fatty acid oxidation in the liver and muscles, increase body glycogen storage, and have a synergistic effect on both muscle building and fat loss. Fish oil - an all-round helper for weight loss, body shaping and joint protection Whether you are losing weight through dieting or exercising to get in shape, fish oil can help you manage your weight in many ways . Choose high-quality joint fish oil containing NEM eggshell membrane for better results. In the new year, let's lose weight healthily and move towards our ideal body shape!
