Good Fats, Bad Fats

Image of healthy foods

Talk of diets, nutrition, and health can eventually include the subject of fat. Fat. Many people hear the word and say to themselves, “Here come the reasons why eating fat is bad.” And many times they’re right on. Then there’s an explanation of the negative effects fat has on the body’s health, including the heart. And, there’s much being exchanged about its role in weight management.

To be fair, though, that’s only half of it. Fat isn’t getting its better shake because the less talked about types of fats include ones that are Good and are great for everyone to know. They’re ones that aren’t often discussed in those day-to-day, casual conversations.

So, for goodness’ sake, forget for a second about the bad- ness of bad-fat. For the sake of what’s better today and for the future,  focus for a moment on facts that are important about the seemingly forgotten facts that are really Good.

First, body chemistry, biology, and  trillions of cells like good fats. More importantly,  they NEED them. Good fats are not only good, but they’re also necessary constituents for maintaining vital organ health and function, organ protection, and promoting other numerous health and wellness processes and systems throughout the entire human body. Good fats are real. And total body health and wellness thrive on them.

Without enough good fat, health declines. Good health is dependent on sufficient and effective levels of certain fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated specifically*). Fatty acids, the class of nutrients known as lipids, and cholesterol-friendly types of fat the body needs. Deficiency in any of the many types of Good Fats can diminish health, leaving it more prone to certain diseases, malfunctioning organ systems, and a decline in healthful functions.

Good Fats, Bad Fats — Know the Facts

There are four kinds of fats:

  • Saturated
  • Trans 
  • Monounsaturated 
  • Polyunsaturated

They differ in chemical structure and physical characteristics. They have been categorized by the absence (saturated and trans) or presence of double and triple bonds (mono- and polyunsaturated) in their carbon chain. Saturated fats and Trans fats are considered “the bad” fats. In food terms they are usually solid at room temperature (like shortening, palm oil, and margarine). Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are “the Good” fats and are more liquid (like canola oil and certain fish oils) in consistency at room temperature.

Fats are found in the following general types of foods (with good and bad representations within almost every type and can be found in many more):

  • Nuts
  • Meat 
  • Fish 
  • Some Dairy Products
  • Butter 
  • Oils

Of these,

 

Bad Fats include the following basics:

  • Meat that is red meat
  • Whole Milk
  • Butter
  • Margarine
  • Shortening
  • Coconut Oil 
  • Palm Oil 
  • Hydrogenated oils
  • Most tropical oils

Good Fats Include the following basics:

  • Fish
    • Cod
    • Halibut
    • Tuna
    • Salmon
  • Nuts
  • Peanut butter and other nut butters – Non Hydrogenated
  • Avocado
  • Olive Oil
  • Peanut Oil
  • Canola Oil
  • High-Oleic Safflower And Sunflower Oils

Saturated fat should not exceed 10% of daily calories, and trans fats— think French Fries and doughnuts — should be excluded entirely.

The Benefits of Fat

(Good Fats First)

Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats and their fatty acid building blocks are incredibly important because – at effective levels – they:

  • Give Your Body Energy
  • Promote Cellular Growth 
  • Protect Organs
  • Assist in Managing and Controlling Cholesterol And Blood Pressure 
  • Help the Body Absorb Vital Nutrients
  • Help the body regulate warmth
  • Assist in chemical exchanges and transport across cell membranes
  • Maintain hydration

Saturated and Trans fats are considered unhealthy because, in excess:

  • They tend to remain solid, causing build up in blood vessels.
  • They are known to increase bad cholesterol (LDL).
  • Increase risk of strokes and heart attacks (also a result of their solid nature). 
  • Are stored by the body when not used to provide energy. This can add unhealthy weight that adds more pressure to bones, joints, and muscles; increases stress on breathing and circulation; and other problems and illnesses. 
  • Can lead to poor blood sugar regulation and even diabetes.

The Good and Bad Takeaways –

(Fat Check for Optimum Health and Wellness)

These Facts about Fat are Good to know and include the reasons why Bad Fat should be kept to a minimum — moderate intake of the Bad Fat; Generous with the Good Fats.

Cells – Important Facts to Know For Better Health

Model of an Animal Cell

A cell is a living organism. Cells are the simplest forms of life as defined by science. Our bodies are made up of trillions of cells. There are different types of cells throughout the body. Cells that are alike in structure and function exist together or group together. These grouped cells together make up body tissue. Cells grouped as tissues are what give the body its form, support, and structure. Additionally, tissue is differentiated by the types of cells it’s made of and is what makes up body organs.

Major organs include:

Heart
Brain
Lungs
Liver
Kidneys
Pancreas
Skin
Eyes

The cells that make up the tissues that make up our major organs have specific functions and those functions are the various operations or mechanisms that make up the vital systems our bodies rely on. They are what we need to stay alive. The nervous system, the digestive system, the cardiovascular system, and so on, must function well in order to live. The healthier all systems – the cells, the tissues, the organs – are, the better we feel. The better we feel, the happier we are. The healthier our bodies are, the more likely they are to avoid illness and premature death. 

Every system’s Specialized cells must perform routine maintenance in order to function optimally and healthily.  

The maintenance cells routinely perform is aimed at one thing – homeostasis. Homeostasis is the scientific term for balance. Cells cycle through different processes to establish equilibrium. The processes they perform are based on whatever the cells must do to maintain internal balance (homeostasis) within themselves ( their internal environment) in relation and response to external conditions, or influences, or environment, etc.

Max International offers a patented and exclusive technology called RiboCeine that helps the body produce Glutathione, the body’s ‘Master’ antioxidant. Glutathione is essential for total health and wellness and powerful in guarding and repairing cells, in DNA synthesis, and in maintaining a strong immune system.

Why Are Omega Oils Important?

Omega Oils: Essential and Non-Essential Nutrients You Must Have

Fatty acids, also referred to as Omega oils, are the building blocks of fats. The body utilizes fatty acids in numerous ways to assist cellular function, metabolism regulation, cardiovascular and heart health, brain function, ` -and more. Fatty acids are vital health components the body relies on to function well. 

Fatty acids that are referred to (respectively) as Omegas 3, 5, and 7 are central to supporting multitudes of vital organ functions, organ and other body system routine maintenance, cellular health, cellular membrane activity, cell signaling, transport of biological chemicals across membranes, optimum skin, hair, and nail health, especially hydration, and support of additional processes and functions that contribute largely to overall total body wellness. 

The body must have sufficient levels of Omega 3, Omega 5. and Omega 7 in order to function at a healthy level and to perform the necessary organ and system functions at their best. There are fatty acids that the body can synthesize — or can make– from other fats or raw materials on its own. These are called non-essential fatty acids. And there are others the body cannot make for itself that must be obtained from food or supplements. These omegas are referred to as essential fatty acids.  Of the fatty acids, essential omegas are the most important. (Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid).

Good Fats, Bad Fats — Fat Facts You Should Know

It’s important to note that all fats are similar in their chemical structure. Each of the four types is a chain of carbon atoms. Their carbon atoms are bonded to hydrogen atoms. The differences between each fat are the number of hydrogen atoms connected to the carbon atoms, and the length and shape of their respective carbon chains.  The differences seem to be minimal. However, the slight variation in the chain and position of the carbon and hydrogen bonds and overall structure result in major differences in function and in form.  

There are four types of fat that the body breaks down into fatty acids, then utilizes in various ways necessary to keep the body functioning in a healthful way. 

They are:

  • Saturated fat
  • Monounsaturated fat
  • Polyunsaturated fat
  • Trans Fat

As a general rule, Saturated and Trans fats are thick or solid (think popcorn popped in heavy palm oil, shortening, and margarine) at room temperature. These are the two “bad” fats. Heavy intake can lead to high levels in the body. Too much bad fat is widely known to be unhealthy. Too much of either has been linked to heart disease, stroke, and other serious conditions. Strong supporting evidence shows that a diet with a high percentage of saturated fats and trans fat is more likely to result in cardiovascular diseases than those without and are cause for being mindful about personal health. Managing these bad fats by consuming them in moderation is shown to be less of a risk for various critical, even life-threatening, diseases.

Omegas 3 and 5 are polyunsaturated fats. Omega-7s are monounsaturated fats.  Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are considered to be the “good”, healthy fats.These two types of fats are responsible for supporting multitudes of functions, processes, and more that the body relies on to maintain overall total body health and wellness.   

What Omegas 3, 5, and 7 Do For You

Omega 3s

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential. The body must get them through diet, supplements, or both. Omega-3 fatty acids help the trillions of cells in the body function optimally. Omega 3s are present in the body’s trillions upon trillions of cells. Cell membranes get their structure from omega 3s nutrients (those classified as lipids).  

Just to name a few…More of what Omega 3 Essentials Do

Omega-3 fatty acids:

  • Help the trillions of cells in the body function optimally 
  • Give cell membranes their structure.
  • Assist cellular membrane signaling 
  • Help regulate metabolism 
  • Aid cell membrane function and chemical transport or exchange

Research shows that omega 3 fatty acids promote the healthy function of nearly every vital organ and the systems they belong to; and they greatly affect heart health and overall total body wellness, including: 

Heartbeat regulation, Nerve, Brain, Eye, Skin, Hair, Metabolic Health, and other Cardiovascular function, and promote Immune system health.

Omega 5 

Rich in nutrients, Omega 5 fatty acids are non-essential omegas. The body makes its own.  These fatty acids support Glutathione and its accompanying antioxidant network. As an additional line of cellular defense, Omega 5 is a complementary defender to help boost cellular health and immune wellness, and to combat environmental invaders like pollution and toxins that make their way into the body from the industrial world around us. These invaders and other free radicals can damage and destroy cells. Too many damaged or destroyed cells results in illness, even death. 

More of What Omega 5s do

Omega 5s:

  • Help combat free radicals and oxidative stress. 
  • Are involved in multiple cellular functions and maintenance.
  • Assist cellular balance, or homeostasis. 
  • Help defend against heart disease
  • Promote optimum cellular health

Omega 7

Omega 7 fatty acids are the body’s anti-aging allies. They promote the hydration and health of the skin, hair, and nails. Deficiency of Omega 7 has been shown to result in ‘scratchy’, dry skin. Red, itchy rashes can also occur with inadequate levels of Omega 7.  Because they promote optimal hydration of skin and of cellular membranes and their routine processes, omega 7 fatty acids should be included in any regime aimed at maintaining an appearance reminiscent of youth. 

In addition to their role in managing hydration of skin and membranes, Omega 7 Fatty Acids:

  • Help to decrease risk of heart disease.
  • Are shown to affect inflammation response. 
  • Are involved in insulin management and sensitivity.

Nutritional Supplementation 

Deficiencies in Omegas 3, 5, and 7 are shown to diminish the healthy function of our most vital organs and systems. Multitudes of diseases and illnesses have been shown to be associated with inadequate levels of these crucial building blocks. For many people worldwide, it’s likely that nutrition and diet alone do not provide the levels necessary to maintain optimum health. 

Max357 is a formula of not just one of the mega omegas, but of three of the body’s most needed fatty acids. Our blend of 3, 5, and 7 omegas is uniquely formulated and responsibly sourced from the eco-friendly fish habitat of the pristine Norway coast waters.

The Importance of Glutathione

The Importance of Glutathione

Glutathione & Immune System Health

For years Max has excelled in revolutionizing immune system health supplementation. The pioneering technology that we offer in our products is the result of decades-long research using highly-principled scientific methodologies. This science resulted in the breakthrough compound, RiboCeineTM. RiboCeine is the best solution to the challenge presented in oral Glutathione supplementation and it’s a solution that earned our award-winning technology a patent for the innovative way it affects Glutathione production.

Why is it important and how does it work?

Glutathione is important because:

  1. It is present within every single cell in the body.
  2. It plays a vital role in keeping cellular functioning and detoxification working effectively and efficiently.
  3. It is widely known as the body’s DEFENDER OF CELLS.

As the body ages cellular production of Glutathione slows. Starting in our twenties, Glutathione levels begin to significantly drop as the body continues to use it to detoxify cells and guard against cellular damage from environmental toxins, pollution, pesticides, and more.

 

In order to effectively defend and detoxify the cells, and to strengthen an immune system, Glutathione production or enhancement must be sufficient. This requires a consistent supply of Glutathione or a reserve readily available for cells at all times.

 

There are countless numbers of companies that sell Glutathione to be taken orally. That is a problem. It’s been shown that pure Glutathione is degraded as it passes through your digestive system. It is a weak molecule when outside the body and breaks down in the stomach.  Because it doesn’t get fully absorbed, taking pure Glutathione orally is ineffective and non-beneficial. That means that any money spent on oral Glutathione supplements is a total loss for consumers.

Glutathione Thumbnail

Glutathione has been administered by injection — usually in response to acetaminophen overdoses, alcohol poisoning, and other similar emergencies. 

 

Injecting Glutathione is effective in these cases but only within a short period of time after administration.  And, Glutathione injections are expensive and ineffective for raising Glutathione levels or creating a reserve cells can use on demand.

Why is this the case? Because of a few issues.

So – rather than try to add Glutathione directly into the body, the solution is to give the body more of what it needs to create its own Glutathione for use after cells create it from within the body – naturally. Glutathione produced by the body that cells use to help combat harmful toxins and oxidative stress is an event referred to as endogenous Glutathione support.

 

To date, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been the most common and trusted solution for Glutathione supplementation. That’s why one of our lead products, MaxGXL™, uses a specially developed NAC formula to deliver some of the essential building blocks for Glutathione.

The LiveMax Solution

In our desire to push this field further, Max research and development created its exclusive RiboCeine technology for improved endogenous Glutathione production. Through a patented design, RiboCeine allows for those building blocks to be more easily absorbed through the digestive system while ALSO providing a main component of your cells’ sources of energy.

 

We use RiboCeine in Cellgevity™ and MaxOne™ to prioritize Glutathione enhancement, and also include it within MaxATP™ and Switch™ to capitalize on our formula’s other benefits.

 

Backed by real science and research, our products assist your body in defending against its most violent attackers –  free radicals, chemical toxins, radiation and heavy metals. This allows your body to regenerate, refresh, and recycle important antioxidants, to detoxify your body by eliminating outside toxins, free radicals, and pollution and helps to strengthen the immune system.

 

That’s the power of endogenous Glutathione support. It’s the best way to get your Glutathione.

4 Tips For Better Mental Health

Let’s face it, our state of mind plays a big role in how our body feels. If we’re down emotionally, then we don’t feel so great mentally. We feel slow or sluggish and our low energy can be a sign of how our mental, emotional, and physical states affect our total wellness.

So, more and more we understand that good wellness is holistic – our mind affects our body just as the state of our body can affect our mind. In times of stress and difficulty, being able to foster a healthy mental state is vital towards keeping yourself healthy.

1.  A Healthy Body

Much of the advice we’ve offered about fostering a healthy body will also help to develop a healthy state of mind.  Getting at least 30 minutes of exercise keeps your body moving and helps to activate endorphins – which has a positive effect on your mood.  It also helps to tire your body out so you can sleep better. Capitalizing on that with good sleep habits (limited screen time, set sleep schedule) will have further benefits for your physical health.

Making that effort to stick to a balanced diet and supplement accordingly to maximize your physical health can be accomplished as follows:

  • Promote heart health with the Omega Oils of Max357
  • Replenish vital nutrients after a workout with Max N-Fuze
  • Fuel your long days with MaxATP
  • Support your Glutathione levels with Cellgevity or MaxONE to keep your immune levels strong

2. A Healthy Mind

If you feel that your mental state is stressed, then you can try to adopt coping habits.  If simple exercise isn’t working – try something more structured like yoga or Tai Chi.  Some people find solace in gardening! If you need to express yourself, write out and share your thoughts – even if it’s just in a personal journal. Something as simple as finding something funny to enjoy for a time (a favorite video clip, some shared memes) can change your frame of mind for the good. If you start to feel drained or unfocused, a shot of natural energy to replenish your fuel through MaxATP can help boost the body AND mind.

3. A Healthy Soul: Meditate For Your Mind

For something that connects a little deeper, set aside time to pray or meditate. You don’t have to belong to a specific religion to find benefits in spirituality. If you need help for making those deeper connections, ask for assistance with your family and friends.  You can also reach out through community resources like clubs, classes and support groups. You’ll find that performing even small acts of kindness can help to nurture positive emotions that can cancel out negative feelings.

4. A Healthy Self

We can find ourselves in a drudgery of routine, so while habits can keep us efficient and make us feel secure and safety; try to change things up every now and then. Take some time off for yourself and think about how you can foster self-care.  Take a moment to consider yourSELF in the same way you would reach out to a good friend or loved one. If you find that more and more you are struggling to feel happy or to cope, it could be a sign that you need time to find value within your own life.

Of course, if you can, contact your doctor or a mental health professional if you feel that you are really struggling with fostering good mental health.

Prioritize all of your health and be the best version of you your life deserves.

How to Improve Heart Health

Good Heart Health
No other muscle in the body works out like the heart does – by beating around 100,000 times a day it pumps around 2,000 gallons of blood every day.  This vital process not only provides fresh oxygen and nutrients to organs and tissues, it carries waste products away for removal.

For such an important part of our body, there’s actually some very simple ways to keep it performing at its best. Here are five tips to keep you on the path to good heart health.

Plan to eat smartly – Fiber is your heart’s best friend, so you’ll want to prioritize fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.  If you’re cutting down on carbohydrates, make sure the carbs you eat are from whole grains and you’ll be doing your vascular system a big favor.  Similarly, when you cook with oil use monounsaturated fats like olive and canola oil to promote good cholesterol.

Go with the good oil – one of the best diets for good heart health is the Mediterranean diet.  Prioritizing baked fish along with high amounts of cereals, nuts, fruits and olive oil, multiple studies have shown great benefits for reducing heart disease.  Prioritize the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids through diet or supplementation to promote good heart health.

Find simple ways to be active – we give advice on getting exercise at home – check out these smart at-home exercise tips A little can go a long way towards giving you a longer, healthier lifestyle. We’re not asking a lot! Just 30 minutes of moderate activity on almost every day will do wonders for your heart. Exercise from home or take care of chores like yard work and cleaning the house to more leisurely activities like cycling and swimming. Even just taking a brisk walk will be enough!

Regulate your vices – While recent studies show no major issues with moderate consumption of alcohol, regular consumption (or even worse, heavy drinking) causes a host of problems, including high blood pressure, stroke, and cardiomyopathy (heart disease).  Smoking causes even more problems, and it’s HIGHLY recommended you find ways to quit as soon as possible.  Moderate your drinking as best as possible and look for assistance with friends and family if you want to quit smoking.

Consult your doctor – everyone’s heart is different and some of us struggle with hereditary issues like high blood pressure or arrhythmia. Stay on top of your yearly checkups to make sure your heart is running smoothly.  Your health care professional can identify any potential problems and will provide advice on how to handle them before they become serious. 

Glutathione and Omega oils are vital to heart health, overall wellness, and immune health. The benefits they provide effectively support and improve cellular functions for the better. Max’s Cellgevity™ and Max357 are just two of Max’s premium formulas and products well worth choosing to create a happier and healthier life.

How to Stay Fit From Home

Holistic Health From Home
Since the not so far off days of quarantines and social distancing, many people find themselves realizing that what all that resulted in included less opportunity for getting out for exercise and almost no chance to visit the local gym. For multitudes of exercisers – walkers, runners, cyclists, swimmers, and more – becoming a couch potato became a reality.

The fallout of such a drastic change for a lot of people affected metabolism, weight management, mental and emotional health, stress levels, and overall comprehensive health and wellness. It’s easier looking back to realize that was making life more challenging than it already was. And it has made it clear to more and more that holistic health – physical, emotional, and mental health all matter.

Try These Home Exercises
Now the restrictions are much more lenient, exercising is back on the agenda. But, think about it, anyone can exercise from home or seclusion if they know how. During winter or if quarantine becomes necessary again, there are simple exercises to do each day that don’t require expensive equipment or a lot of room.  Bookmark this page for reference and start moving even if it means staying in one place. Try these for starters:

Side Lunge

  • Stand with both feet together and hands clasped in front of your chest.
  • Take a large step out to your right, immediately lowering into a lunge by sinking your hips back and bending your right knee – make sure the knee does not pass beyond your toes. 
  • Keep your left leg straight but not locked, with both feet pointing forward.
  • Push off the right foot to straighten your right leg, then step your right foot next to left to  return to the starting position.

Wall Squats

  • Stand with your back flat against a wall.
  • Position your feet about shoulder-width apart and then about 2 feet (60 cm) out from the wall, keeping your arms at your side.
  • Slide your back down the wall, bending your legs until they’re in a 90 degree angle. Your knees should be directly above your ankles.
  • Hold the position for five seconds while contracting your abs.
  • Stand slowly, while leaning against the wall, to return to the starting position.

We recommend that you find just 20 minutes in a day where you find a spot in a room to do these exercises.  Make sure to…

  1. Warm up first with some light stretching
  2. Do 10-15 reps for each exercise
  3. Rest 15-30 seconds between the exercises 
  4. That’s 1 set, push to do at least two more sets 
  5. Rest 1-2 min. between sets

Fast, simple, and without much fuss, these exercises will help strengthen your core and stretch your muscles. The perfect remedy when you are sitting down at the computer all day, or watching it snow, or making sure you don’t feel like a couch potato!

Give Yourself Even More Support

Prioritizing your health is more important than any other thing you do. Without good health, you’re not your best feeling self. That’s not what you, your life, or your loved ones deserve.

Max supplements are superior to the rest because we solved the Glutathione problem – its low bioavailability and Inefficacy when taken orally (in supplements). Max’s team of chemists and specialized scientists, led by Dr. Herbert T. Nagasawa, devised an ingenious and revolutionary way to overcome the Glutathione challenge. After decades of highly-principled research, trials and errors, and patience, Dr. Nagasawa pioneered RiboCeine™.

RiboCeine™ Is Better

What are some of the facts to know about Riboceine™?

  • RiboCeine™ is scientific innovation that only Max has.
  • RiboCeine™ is the world’s proven superior answer for raising Glutathione sufficiently.
  • RiboCeine™ is 300 times more effective than the next best Glutathione enhancing method and product.
  • RiboCeine™ technology is validated effective by an awarded US patent.
  • RiboCeine™ is the pioneering ingredient in Max’s products. 
  • RiboCeine™ is a strong molecule that can be taken orally. It withstands the digestive process and is effectively absorbed into the bloodstream. 
  • RiboCeine™  has high bioavailability. 
  • RiboCeine™ remains intact and transports to cells the cysteine and ribose they utilize to actually produce Glutathione ON THEIR OWN. 
  • RiboCeine provides an additional supply of some of the key components cells also utilize to create ATP – the body’s energy source.

Those last two facts are quite amazing and worth repeating:

Riboceine™ – which has been uniquely engineered to conveniently take orally – is a compound that is absorbed by the body and blood and contains the cysteine and Ribose cells recognize and use to manufacture Glutathione Naturally and provides components cells use to create ATP Naturally.

RiboCeine™ is an engineering accomplishment and biochemistry technology that is improving lives for those who realize the benefits of Glutathione.

Revolutionary Glutathione Enhancement

The body has sufficient levels of Glutathione until the age of 20 when it starts to decrease. As Glutathione levels drop, the rate at which it is produced also drops as the body ages. While it is widely known that Glutathione is vital to cellular wellness, it’s also widely known that Glutathione enhancement – increasing Glutathione levels in the body to effectively benefit cells – has been problematic.
