TARGETING refers to a number of things that contribute to prolonged and vibrant lives. Included in targeting are your immune system, your skeletal system, and your lean body mass. Let’s look at these in the order listed not to be confused with order of importance. Every aspect of this portion plays an equally important role in sustaining optimal health, wellness and youth. The rest of this information contained in the other pages on this site are devoted to helping you TARGET confidently.


1. Immune System------your immune system is what protects you from simple things such as colds and flues as well as more devastating conditions such as cancers, and autoimmune diseases. It requires a number of things in order to function optimally. The basics to having a high functioning immune system are diet, exercise, rest, stress control and nutrition targeted at limiting free radical damage. We think of viruses and infections as immune attacks, however everyday exposure to the chemicals and toxins in our environment as well within our bodies serve to overload and overtax our immune systems. We need to constantly to be feeding ourselves the basic nutrients required for optimal function of our body as well as immune enhancing nutrients and anti-oxidants. Regular detox programs will relieve the burdens of toxins on our immune systems and allow this system to function optimally. Eating a diet rich in phytonutrients from fresh organic grown fruits and vegetables and drinking filtered water are essential to protecting this system. Proper rest allowing the body to regenerate is essential and controlling our stress to minimize the emotional stress on this delicate system is advisable. Exercise which increases our T-Cell production and allows the body to release these scavenger killer cells is essentials but results in the necessity of more anti-oxidants to relieve the free radical damage caused by the overall pump the body gets from the physical activity.

2. Skeletal System-----this is the framework for your body. We strong dense bone density as well as the connective tissue that holds everything together. Women have long know the importance of strong bones, however today 1 in 4 men face osteoporosis and this statistic is rising. We need to be aware of building our skeletal system to maximize bone density even in our children. Bone density starts to drop off naturally in our mid thirties and continues to decrease the rest of our lives. We can halt or at least slow this process by feeding ourselves highly absorbable natural calcium, exercising frequently doing weight bearing and strengthening exercises.

3. Lean Body Mass----we think of our lean body mass as the muscles of our legs, backs and arms. Lean body mass also refers to our heart and all other organs. When we are strengthening our visible body muscle mass we also strengthen and enhance the function of these organs. We require lean body mass to efficiently use our glucose and create energy, maintain optimal weight and a sense of vibrancy and overall well-being. To enhance our lean body mass we require exercise as well as a diet high in protein and low in saturated fats. We need to consume high quality proteins and digest them efficiently; this is where an enzyme supplement is very beneficial. We can also supplement with protein supplement to increase our digestible protein content in our diet and facilitate building lean tissue. Obesity is the fastest growing disease in the world. Many weight loss products promote a "fast and easy" approach to weight loss at the expense of long-term health and sustainable weight management. Weight loss programs need to be natural, sustainable, and nutritionally sound. Programs that promote nutritional supplementation together with diet and exercise allow the body to utilize its natural metabolizing functions to sustain long-term weight balance. The key to weight loss is to do it in a natural, healthy way that does not jeopardize your long-term health.
