At Herbalife, we believe so strongly in Balanced Nutrition that we’ve developed our Herbalife Global Nutrition Philosophy. Balanced Nutrition means getting the right amounts of key nutrients: Up to 30% of our daily calories from healthy fats, 40% from carbohydrates and 30% from proteins. When it comes to fats, it is important to eat less saturated fats and more Omega-3 fatty acids. And we can’t forget to consume 25 grams of fibre each day.
"At Herbalife, we believe that balanced and personalised nutrition supports a healthy, active life. Eating the right foods, combined with supplements, and exercising regularly are key."
GLOBAL NUTRITION OVERVIEW
Today, there are more overweight or obese people in the world than ever before. Although in the previous 50,000 years, humans obtained a survival benefit from storing fat, changes in the human diet and lifestyle in the past 200 years have resulted in millions of people around the world suffering from obesity.
Studies show that hunter-gatherers used to eat about 800 different varieties of plants. But today, the average intake is only about three servings of fruits and vegetables per day, which doesn’t provide enough of the antioxidants, phytochemicals, vitamins and minerals that are essential for good health.
In addition, highly processed foods with refined starches, sugars, fats, salts and oils provide many calories per bite, but they often don’t contain the essential nutrients that are found in foods, such as fruits and vegetables.
At the same time, a highly sedentary lifestyle over the last 30 years has resulted in a global epidemic of obesity and chronic health issues. People urgently need solutions that emphasis a balanced diet and a healthy, active life.
