Why Health Is Wealth


Health is like an investment account: when you are in a perfect state of vitality and getting all the Power Nutrients your tissues need to function at their best, your “health account” balance is at 100%- as it should be. But when you suffer a deficiency of key nutrients, it’s as if you’re withdrawing money from that account. At first, the account has a lot of money in it, so small withdrawals don’t make much difference. But over time, your balance starts to take real hits; eventually, you can’t pay your bills. You start running a “vitality deficit,” and your body reflects this by developing the problems we diagnose as disease. Only by putting “money” back into your account—only by restoring the balance of vital nutrients—can you return to health.

This incredible similarity between health and finance leads to two new terms that, for us, replace the outdated and vague terms “disease” and “health:”

BioDebt: The state of nutritional deficiency that drains your wellness account.
BioWealth: The state of nutritional abundance that leads to optimal function.



In Health is Wealth, we present to you a fundamental redefinition of the concepts of disease and wellness. Listed below are the basic principles that "Health is Wealth" is based upon:
1)Disease is just a word that conventional medicine has created to describe processes that are complex; processes that develop over a long period of time instead of in mere days or weeks.
2)Disease is not an unchanging state of being, but a reversible and preventable process.
3)Disease is actually nothing more than a set of symptoms, which we will describe in detail, that your body exhibits to let you know it is deficient in certain key nutrients.
4)Vitality is the natural state of the human organism and can persist long into old age.
When you give your body a daily supply of the essential nutrients it needs to function at its peak level, you are investing in your present and future vitality. Doing this isn’t always easy. Much like finance, it requires long-term vision. It takes discipline to put money into the stock market month after month, year after year, resisting the temptation to cash out when the Dow plummets, and it can seem like an act of faith to take antioxidants or coenzyme Q10 supplements every day for twenty years. But we can attest that it’s not an act of faith: it’s an act of fact. Well-supported scientific research results prove that when you consistently make “optimizing medicine” part of your personal care routine, you protect your vitality against future dysfunction. You are making small, but daily, deposits into your BioWealth account. Over time, they really do add up.

Calorie And Body weight Basics


Calories Are
units of energy your body uses to fuel its functions and activities
created from proteins, fats and carbohydrates found in our foods and beverages
necessary for basic body functions like keeping the heart, brain and lungs functioning (also know as basal metabolism
essential to fuel activity – from the smallest hand gesture to a 5-mile run


The number of calories we need each day depends on how much we weigh, how much muscle mass we have and how active we are.

If you consume more calories than your body needs, those extra calories will be stored as fat.
If you consume less calories than your body needs, your previously stored calories (fat) will be used to supply additional energy.
A Pound = Approximately 3,500 Calories To Lose Weight

By cutting down 500 calories per day, you will cut a total of 3,500 calories per week – resulting in the loss of 1 pound of body fat. But never consume fewer than 1,200 calories per day.* (Refer to Weight Management section for Program.)
If you want to lose more than 1 pound a week, you will need to either reduce your calorie intake further,* or increase the amount of calories you burn with exercise.
To Maintain Weight

Balance calories from food and beverages with calories expended.**
If you are a woman:
You will need about 12 calories for every pound of body weight (A 150-lb. woman needs about 1,800 calories a day.)
If you are a man:
You will need about 14 calories for every pound of body weight. (A 200-pound man needs about 2,800 calories a day
