More About NUTRI-BOOSTER

        Severe lack of protein results in nutritional deficiency disease called kwashiorkor which is characterized by loss of weight, retarded growth and edema (hands, buttocks and arms are swollen with water, pigmented skin, with some parts are peeling off and hair is thin). Protein is vital to human nutrition in the sense that it is from protein that the living protoplasms (jellylike material) of the cell is built. But every cell in our body from our shining hair down to the pink toenails needs complete protein for normal growth and development.

        Nutri-Booster contains an abundant amount of essential nutrients such as calcium, phosporus and potassium. Calcium is presently considered a miracle nutrient. It combines with phosphorus to give strength and firmness to the skeletal or bony structure of the body especially for young children whose bones are rapidly growing. When the calcium in the body drops below the safe level, the nerves become extremely irritable and the muscles go into spasm. When it is reduced in the bloodstream, the heart becomes irregular and quickly losses power. While the phophorus in the form of phosphoric acid is also found to be essential to human physiology as it forms part of all bones and is very high in brain and nerve tissues. 30 percent dry matter of our brain is made up of phosphorus. It has a soothing effect on the nerves. Potassium is equally essential to human nutrition for it is very much needed to have a strong digestive capability. Infants deficient to this nutrient can't easily digest solids or hard foods which often results to Loose Bowel Movement(LBM) and could complicate to diarrhea which is considered as one of the killer diseases among young children in the rural areas. Besides, Nutri-Booster is an excellent source of dietary fiber which is very important to both children and adults to prevent gastrointestinal diseases and promote normal bowel function. Constipation is common among children caused by low dietary fiber in their diet.

        Nutri-Booster also contains lecithin, a powerful nitrition factor. In fact no other nutrient does so many ways to improve and preserve good health and youthful vim and vigor. It performs an astonishing range of vital functions affecting our health and well-being. Lecithin is a very rich source of choline. Memory can be greatly improved by eating foods which contain choline. Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge,USA, have discovered that choline can actually sharpen one's brain power. It can even effectively treat Alzheimer's disease which causes loss of memory in older people and accounts for many cases of senility. The most surprising part of the discovery is that choline is taken by the brain directly from the circulating blood.
