The benefits of nutrition for the cells of the human body are basically three: energetic, restorative and regulatory. By keeping them healthy through a rich and balanced diet, cells can better fulfill their functions in the body.
Each type of nutrient provides cells with particular benefits in the processes of supplying energy to the body and maintaining body health.
Therefore, these basic structures of the body need a correct and healthy eating plan so that the body can stay active, grow, rebuild tissues and heal.
Cells are responsible for giving structure to the body, they absorb nutrients from food and convert them into energy. These nutrients are acquired through foods rich in proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and water.
Nutrition benefits for cells
Energetic
They provide energy for proper cell function. The human body needs to nourish itself daily to be able to carry out its motor, digestive, mental, respiratory, circulatory activities, etc.
For example, walking requires moving your legs and contracting the cells of various muscles. Without energy, an action as simple as this could not be performed.
Repairman
The nutrients provide the cells with the essential elements to form the structure of the organism during the growth process and its renewal (skin, bones, organs, hair, teeth, red and white blood cells, etc.).
The body grows during the development stage, because cells receive the necessary material that allows them to divide and increase their number in the body. Throughout life the body is replenishing dead cells.
-Regulator. This benefit consists in the control of certain chemical reactions that occur in cells. The proper functioning of the human body through cells would not be possible, if the nutrients did not act as regulating agents of their functions.
What is cellular nutrition?
It is the permanent supply of essential vitamins and minerals, through food, to help cells absorb these nutrients and fulfill their function of maintaining body health.
Cells are the body's source of energy, therefore, cell nutrition is essential for its functioning.
But, when people age the metabolism slows down and prevents the body from absorbing these nutrients, thus aggravating the problem for the proper functioning of cells.
So people need special cellular nutrition programs to cleanse the body's cells of toxins, which are acquired throughout life through the air and the food we eat.
Toxins reduce vitality in humans. The explanation why children have so much energy is because they sleep well and their cells are not yet covered with toxins.
Cell functions
In addition to performing very specific and vital functions in the body, cells contain the hereditary material of living things. Among the basic functions of cells in the body are: nutrition, relationship and reproduction.
Nutrition includes the absorption of nutrients acquired through food and their transformation into energy. Nutrients also help form the matter of the cell itself.
The relationship is the process of elaboration of responses corresponding to the captured stimuli.
Reproduction is the division of the stem cell into new cells or daughter cells.
The human organism is made up of billions of cells, the number of which depends on the size of the body. These cells form the tissues, the tissues in turn form the organs and these the systems that make up the human body.
