The foods we consume affect both the functions of our body and the composition of our body, as well as our psychology. Their correct choice in our daily lives has beneficial properties. By consuming foods rich in micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, trace elements) and macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, fat) ingredients, we are led to meet our needs. Our body works properly and there is a balance.<\/p>\n<h3>Disease induction and prevention: The role of nutrition in both cases.<\/h3>\n<p>According to the World Health Organization, diet is one of the main factors in causing certain chronic non-communicable diseases (e.g. cancer, cardiovascular diseases, type II diabetes) as well as some syndromes (eg chronic fatigue syndrome) and autoimmune diseases. While all of us are aware of its important role in everyday life, few are those who plan their diet plan.<\/p>\n<p>Prevention is the prior &#8220;cure&#8221; through a correct and balanced diet, which results in well-being and health.<\/p>\n<h3>The definition of &#8220;Correct Nutrition&#8221;.<\/h3>\n<p>The term &#8220;Nutrition&#8221; is used to define the correct intake of nutrients from healthy foods &#8211; of course having correct combinations. By knowing its rules and making smart choices about the foods we eat, we help our bodies achieve optimal health throughout our lives. It is important to mention that following a proper diet holds the &#8220;key&#8221; to avoiding obesity, as well as many of the most prevalent chronic diseases that exist today.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on our needs and our different culture, we can follow a diet that expresses us, e.g. Vegan or Pescetarian or other type. Our professional dietitian is an ally, who will design the personalized health plan covering the nutrients of each person.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;Passepartout&#8221; nutritional plans or trends. Are they suitable for everyone?<\/h3>\n<p>Personalized is the new trend! Not everything is for everyone. The personalization of a nutrition plan is formed in each organism based on its needs and deficiencies.<\/p>\n<h3>The risks are fraught with &#8220;mass diets&#8221;.<\/h3>\n<p>Personalized nutritional intervention can prevent health conditions that have not yet appeared. The implementation of any diet can lead to the appearance of unpleasant conditions. If there is intolerance, malabsorption, severe gastrointestinal problems (eg IBS, IBD), obesity, diabetes mellitus, which are associated with the consumption of certain foods, with a wrong diet they can be aggravated. The continuous application of a strict diet or an exclusion diet tires the metabolism and leads to a reduction in its function.<\/p>\n<p>The right course for someone to follow is to first investigate their body through special tests, such as hematology, metabolomic analysis, microbiome and others, and then formulate their personalized nutrition plan. Of course, if he has special restrictions due to ethics, religion or other issues, we adjust the plan accordingly.<\/p>\n<h3>Why the indiscriminate consumption of nutritional supplements should be avoided.<\/h3>\n<p>As their name suggests, they are nutritional supplements and not foods. Their consumption needs to be careful, in moderation and there should be control before, during and after taking them.<\/p>\n<p>Personal Wellness is supported by the Personal Supplements department which is staffed by a trained team of scientists who combine and recommend the appropriate Nutritional Enhancement Protocols for each individual. Through properly designed health plans, we check the real deficiencies of your body in nutrients, then the Personal Nutrition department designs your dietary plan and together with our Medical department, the appropriate Strengthening Protocols for your body are recommended, if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>All Personal Supplements products are notified to the EOF and follow the specifications of the National Medicines Agency and EFSA (European Food Safety Authority).<\/p>\n<h3>Tailor-made nutrition: What are its benefits?<\/h3>\n<p>The benefits are many! For starters, every body is unique, so the diet must be special for everyone. At Personal Nutrition, the nutrition &amp; dietetics pillar of Personal Wellness, our goal is education and, by extension, the replacement of eating habits and a change of mindset towards food. With the combination of the aforementioned scientific methods and body mapping, the design of the ultimate tailor-made diet is achieved, which responds exclusively to the individual needs of each organism.<\/p>\n<p>As we are eco-conscious, our personalized nutrition plans are designed and based on the principles of sustainable eating. That is, seasonal fruits and vegetables are selected, local production units are supported and Mediterranean Diet standards are followed. Finally, the benefits don&#8217;t stop here. Personal Nutrition makes life easier, as along with the nutrition plan, a shopping list, recipes, store locations &amp; e-shops and online chat with your dietitian are provided.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;State of the art&#8221; Personal Nutrition machines and microbiome analysis<\/p>\n<p>The Dietetic Department of Personal Nutrition is supported by state-of-the-art equipment. It consists of Tanita 980MC PLUS body composition analyzer and QUARK CPET ergospirometer, cardiorespiratory monitoring and metabolic system with gas exchange analysis (VO2,VCO2).<\/p>\n<p>Body Composition Analysis is done with the Tanita 980MC Plus. A device which is the ultimate tool for personalized diagnosis of body composition. It is a non-invasive multi-frequency impedance technology. The 6 frequencies of the Tanita 980MC Plus, combining the latest algorithms, allow the rendering of results with the maximum possible accuracy. Some of the parameters attributed are fat mass, muscle mass (total and partial), basal metabolic rate, metabolic age, sarcopenia index, visceral fat level, body fluid percentage, intracellular and extracellular fluid percentages . Also, it gives values \u200b\u200bof electrical resistance, inductive resistance, phase angle as well as graphs of muscle mass balance and lower limb muscle performance.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the QUARK Cardio Pulmonary Exercise Test system includes a state-of-the-art metabolic platform for gas exchange analysis (VO2, VCO2) either at rest RMR or during exercise. It is designed so that we can get a multitude of results at different levels, which are evaluated each time by the respective scientific team and directs the examinee.<\/p>\n<p>In the 21st century we know that the bacteria in the gut interact with each other as well as with our body. They coexist with him and there is a two-way relationship. Our body functions as a growth and nutrition area for intestinal bacteria. Bacteria in turn favor our body, facilitating the absorption of digested food and synthesizing essential components such as vitamins. They also protect the intestine from inflammation by producing anti-inflammatory substances and contribute to the body&#8217;s resistance to various types of infections. Through the examination of the microbiome, Personal Wellness processes the results and shapes the dietary habits of the examinee with the aim of health and well-being.<\/p>\n<p>The scientific team of Personal Wellness consisting of Biologist, Doctor, Dietitians, Nurses, collects and studies the results of all measurements. The examinee&#8217;s profile is completed and the ultimate tailor-made plan is formed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A carefully planned diet is vital.
