    Nutrition & Micronutrients

    Fit with fat - for life.

    „The cell needs nutrients - not calories."

    — Prof. Dr. med. Jörg Spitz

    1The Fat Misunderstanding

    For decades we were told that fat makes you fat and sick. That was a wrong turn.

    Healthy fats are essential for cell membranes, hormones and brain performance.

    Omega-3 fatty acids, MCT oil and olive oil are not fattening, but vital building blocks.

    Key Insights

    • The brain consists of 60% fat
    • Omega-3 deficiency is associated with depression and dementia
    • Healthy fats provide long-lasting satiety and stabilize blood sugar

    2Sugar - The Underestimated Disease Maker

    Sugar doesn't make you sweet, it makes you sick. Civilization food is a disease maker in slow motion.

    Chronic sugar spikes lead to insulin resistance, fatty liver and accelerated aging.

    The problem starts at breakfast: Cornflakes, toast, orange juice - all hidden sugar.

    3Micronutrients Activate Genes

    Micronutrients like vitamin D, omega-3, magnesium epigenetically activate cell health.

    Many people are overfed yet undernourished: full bellies, but empty cells.

    A nutrient-rich diet is species-appropriate feeding for our body.

    Metaphors & Images

    Many are overfed - yet undernourished at the same time.

    Calorie abundance with nutrient poverty - the paradox of modern nutrition.

    Civilization food is not an energy provider - but a disease maker in slow motion.

    What we eat today has little to do with species-appropriate nutrition.

    Practical Implementation

    • 1Drastically reduce sugar and white flour
    • 2Healthy fats: Olive oil, avocado, nuts, fatty fish
    • 3Vegetables as the main component of every meal
    • 4Intermittent fasting gives the body regeneration time
    • 5Monitor micronutrient supply (get tested)
