Why everybody needs good nutrition

A daily intake of vitamins, minerals and nutrients is essential to good health and vitality.

In an ideal world, we would obtain a correct balance of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients from the food we eat. But with today’s hectic lifestyle and poor eating habits, this is often impractical, resulting in a level of nutrition than desirable.

Weight problems and nutritional deficiencies are widespread in our society, mainly due to bad eating habits such as overeating, skipping meals and "yo-yo" dieting. Stress, medications, smoking, alcohol and poor eating habits all lead to decreased nutrient absorption.

Many people who try to lose weight quickly abuse their bodies with radical and unsafe slimming methods. Minimal or reduced-calorie diets rarely provide the full nutrition that our body’s require and can lead to long-term health disorders.

Harsh dieting also robs us of all enjoyment in eating. After long periods of dieting and self-denial, many people fail to maintain their desired weight and put back every kilo they lost and more!

If your diet provides you with less than optimum nutrition, you will lightly need to supplement your diet with vitamins, minerals and other nutritional factors.

Supporting good Nutrition

Our bodies are composed of trillions of tiny building blocks-living cells which grow, die and are replaced many times over during our lifetimes. As all nutrition is absorbed at this level, our bodies need good nutrition for them to perform their vital functions of metabolism: growth, repair, detoxification and reproduction.

Herbalife’s weight-management programme assists with micronutrient supplementation. This can allow us to reduce our caloric intake while maintaining vitamin, mineral and nutrient factors essential to good health. We provide these factors in an easily digestible form, so our body can absorb them, even when there has been a history of poor eating, excessive dieting or illness.

The key difference with Herbalife products is the inclusion of a group of herbs and micronutrients which support optimum nutrition, for those who need such support, to further assist overall good health and vitality.
