please places in europe, the wreckers step into all the venture. the treasure map forms modern globetrotters, discover some of us a record breaking site on your back. and now also in book form. seeing fit and active into old age, that's the dream. what, what does our body need for that? the supplement industry and all its promises has been growing for years. but do we need pills to be healthy? find out on today's show. ah. the feed we eat is mainly made up of proteins carbohydrates. but the healthy diet

also includes so called micro nutrients, commonly known as vitamins and minerals. they are often found in fruits and vegetables. but what tasks do they perform and the body of all the documents, if vitamin c, that's the most well known. but why do we need vitamin? see? why didn't see as an antioxidant, meaning it fights free radicals. those are aggressive particles that can damage our tissues because they react easily with other molecules. vitamin c came, neutralize the free radicals, rendering them harmless. and this essential compound does a lot more for us besides that. but generally we don't need assume it by a supplement because the body will simply get rid of any excess vitamin c. has it been days since you last got any sun? we need uv rays to produce vitamin

d. it allows us to absorb calcium and phosphate from our gut, which are essential for healthy bones. the vitamin d also supports t lymphocytes. shells of our immune system, t cells via pathogens, but only once vitamin d has activated them. while it's essential, generally, we don't need to take vitamin d supplements. it's fat soluble, and the body can store it showing winter, we still usually have enough. it does taking magnesium tablets at night. i mean you can work out without your muscle scrambling. magnesium is responsible for muscle relaxation. if calcium streams into the muscle, cells, muscle, contracts, magnesium, on the other hand, blocks the calcium, the result, the muscle, relaxers, magnesium can only do this because it's so tiny, especially compared to vitamins with their long chains of carbon, atoms,

magnesium and calcium are minerals and metabolic elements in the periodic table, whether magnesium, really helps with muscle cramps has yet to be scientifically proven. vitamins and minerals are essential for many bodily functions. however, in high amounts they can be harmful, and it's especially easy was dietary supplements to exceed the recommended intake. this long term study showed that an estimate of 23000 emergency department visits in the us every year are attributed to adverse events related to dietary supplements. with a number of nutritional supplements is huge. and since the corona virus pandemic began, the market has been booming. their products to strengthen bones or the immune system also help with our mood, their product to vegetarians, because and even children. consumer advocates have mixed feelings about the trend

because many people don't have a vision or mineral deficiency. he's against the slogans and images aim to have a positive emotions and a consumer. so they have a good feeling when they see the products on the show. guys, i don't think they think that looks good and sounds really good. i'd like to buy it . that's how fish deanna, but most of the time people are throwing money out the window my sometimes. and also often as many people are concerned about their immune system. especially now during the pandemic, because of limited exercise facilities, financial concerns and the associated stress. and here richmond, d keeps coming up. nutritionists say that dietary supplements can make sense in individual cases, short or long term deficiencies are certainly a cause for concern, but still that's high flying. and that doesn't mean taking vitamin d protects you against cove it or influences the course of cove it in any way

either by susan can this many studies have been done and they have yet to show any clear benefit. i didn't benefit gets fight consume should also be aware of how drugs affect one another. cancer patients, for example, should be especially careful skipped directly. there are clear figures and studies show that taking certain dietary supplements adversely affects colette straw metabolism and the effectiveness of certain blood pressure and diabetes medications the beta middle of and they got to find. and in addition, they can accelerate tumor growth by helping tumor cells multiply faster as we have seen with vitamin b 12 and folic acid. any questions for me at scientists that this lab examined the ingredients of nutritional supplements, but they can only check a small percentage of the available products in thoughts on common jellies in germany, around $10000.00 food supplements come on to the market each year across europe.

it's much more hello now, so it's not possible to examine old the dietary supplements produced in germany. we can only look at random samples between 30 and 40 percent of the products are questionable. some of the false health promises of a plant based see the foods actually only contain green, di and they are all nutritional supplements sold online that specifically target men or women. the scientists are especially concerned about products of skill online sources. some claim to be effective against it, but it's hard to trace them back to them. manufacturers. they all buy love often there each wide studies on these just pulled out so far there are around $600.00 products online and 60 products in germany alone. i now offer investors product manufacturer have allows our camera team to visit we have to follow strict hygiene rules because they produce medicines as well as dietary supplements. but he does

not. so any products online or in supermarkets difficult with us and we sell our pharmaceuticals in dietary supplements and exclusively at pharmacies for example, vitamin d 3. because we see the important professional advice. and you can only really get that advice from trained professionals at a pharmacy. from a past has not been met with the panoramic has changed the market demand for cold masons has fallen, but sales the fisherman's up around 10 percent little in d is up 25 percent. the company's pharmacist advises against taking too much of anything over a long period because it's possible to take too many fact soluble vitamins means the risk was vitamin d, for example, can disrupt calcium metabolism. it can lead to kidney stones. and it's simply not

recommended to take it for no reason, but toward the bottom line is healthy and balance diet is essential. if you have a visual deficiency, you should consult with the physician or pharmacists to fix the problem and be very cautious about do the sellers online, the me search for weight loss tips online, and you'll find some pretty crazy ideas out there. like the so called color diet, only foods of a particular color are allowed on your plate. but more often than not, these tips are not from real health experts. and many last trends are often sorely lacking and scientific evidence. to make because of these little pills promise, they'll help you get your dream body weight loss tablets supposedly help people trim down fast. many people struggling with that weight. consider them the only

hope. the tricky thing is that these appetite suppressant appear harmless to bias at 1st glance that advertised as being purely plump based but is not always the case. we decided to find out the, the central, the bar a tree of german pharmacist has been analyzing diet pills for years. according to the lapse director monitor up people who want to lose weight off and unaware of the health risks that's kept up to 5. it's a disaster situation. gifts which will thing about substances that are toxic substances that are costs and agenda. some of them require a doctor's prescription. consumers are taking masses of these polls without being aware of the ramifications they have for their health. all diet pills, harmful to all health. the market for them is huge. we sent 3 of the ones we found online to a lab. one of them is the type suppressant light pro.

the results of the analysis was shocking. the well, i wouldn't recommend ly prior to any one. we got to not be surprised when the results came in that we determined that it actually contains an anti depressant from the states. a psycho drug masquerading as hypo medicine is not only illegal but dangerous. so i need to show pharma going down, taking 2 different psychoactive drugs together. is really an advisable monday and no circumstances should they be given to diabetes. patients come from vice resign that could lead to anxiety, disorientation, headache and insomnia. shop load the skies like this exist because food supplements in many countries are subject to a rigorous drug approval process with no requirement to prove they have no health effect. the manufacturers of a product called from out advertising as

a fat burner. the caps fuels, supposedly, to press hunger, by boosting metabolism. that's what the 15 hours, i mean, the product is made up of an interesting cocktail that does actually boost metabolism ident, to speed that i'd. but that cocktail is also made up of iodine and tyra's. seen. combination raises blood pressure leads to an increased heart rate and has a negative impact on the cardiovascular system. off the head cuts off the steam, tyrosine used in the creation of new re transmitters in the brain. while content are listed on the product label, the average consumer is often unaware of the side effects. ketone is the last pill under investigation in our experiment. all the packaging since it contains a lot of caffeine which is known interface metabolism. me. but the lab

results show that the cup kills contain significantly less caffeine than stated on the label. i don't need rudely fine. it will never be possible nice. there is no magic tool that you can take to lose a lot of weight in a short amount of time on these products are not worth the money. people spend on them less money, diet pills from the internet at best, ineffective. and in the worst cases they can be consul. wow. we all know exercise helps you lose weight, but did you know it doesn't only strengthen muscles, but bones to that set. endurance training is not always the best choice. studies show that bones benefit most from waste bearing resistance training. that's because resistance exercise exerts a mechanical load on bones. consequently,

leading to increase in bone strength combined likeness and flexibility with strength and rigidity. they've allowed people to become masters of motion, professional athletes the be no, kristen and leah, lisa, up to great examples of what our bone help us achieve, maximum physical exertion in their respective discipline. they rely on very different qualities of step bones. india, clarice le, i'm a gymnast and to time german champion and the floor exercise, the number greece is constant, edge muscles and tendons. what together in such a way to make her body extremely flexible. the human skeleton is made up of more than $200.00 bones. a quarter, if these alone are in our hands, this allows them to move in many different ways.

ah, that's just been a cruise to strength is everything. my mom and i'm sabina, close to her. i'm a weightlifter. i was my 2016 olympic games and ria, my way class is 64 kilos and my best performance is 97 kilos in the snatch, and 119 in the clean and chuck stores that noise in q. that means that i can lift almost double arrow weight with training. she's able to strengthen her bones so they can withstand the stream strain. and they say the lies. the supporting access of the skeleton is the spine. with 24 moveable vertebrae and

flexible spinal disks. in between its structure like a chain. so it's extremely flexible. the body also has a $140.00 joints to make it more flexible. the stable structure of our bone is particularly fascinating. instead of a solid mass inside this, a spongy tissue made up of numerous beams of connective tissue called trump, actually, to sound tight, are responsible for this tissue. me. the last constantly builds new trip actually. and the austere class. a constantly breaking down for becky lee. about every 10 years, the 2 cell types of generated entirely new bone. it's like a complete make over and the many small becky lee and cavities and between make the

bones extremely stable and light at the same time. the formation and break down as bone substance is subject to a delicate balance that we can influence. to be a coaster, a stimulates the bone cells to build up tissue during her constant training. her bones become stronger, not exerting the bones enough results in the opposite effects. very substance will be broken down and the bones will become weaker. deep within the bone cavities, blood production takes place. the stem cells at the bone marrow may call red and white blood cells, as well as platonists. when way young and growing sounds produced on a massive scale. later the body is just aiming to keep the same level. so some of the stem cells turn into fat cells, blood supply gets to low,

the stem cells will be reactivated to produce fresh blood without us even noticing . so our bones really are a hidden one to rest of the body. they produce blood to flow through our veins. they make it possible for us to move smoothly and strengthen our bodies there, living organ that runs through our entire body, from hedge to tennis. ah, as well as resistance training bones require nutrients to maintain strengths. and these can be found naturally and food. what does to feed our bones? here are some foods scientifically proven to support strong bones. milken dairy products, for example, hard cheese from cows milk contains a lot of calcium,

which is essential for strong bones. it's in constant demand in our bodies. 100 grams of hard cheese contains around a 1000 milligrams of calcium about the recommended daily allowance in many countries. scientific studies clearly show that a diet reaching calcium increases bone density. however, it's still not clear if it reduces the risk of don't fractures in old age. dairy products also contain other substances important for bones like b vitamins and phosphorus. about 85 percent of the bodies, phosphorus he's in our bones, but always consult your doctor before taking calcium tablets. there's a risk of calcification of the blood vessels go cheeses at tasty alternative to regular cheese, even if it doesn't contain quite as much calcium and protein nuts and seeds are also great. 100 grams of sesame seeds contains 700 milligrams of calcium. they also

contain phosphorus and import and proteins. sesame seeds go well with salads and pastries. pureed with sesame oil. they create heaney and ingredient in home us. the green vegetables take rob choice. 100 grams of joy has around a 100 milligrams of calcium. and green vegetables contain other minerals essential for bones like potassium. studies show that people who eat more fruits and vegetables have stronger bones. vegetables are also a source of vitamin k, which helps incorporate calcium into the bones. experiments show that vitamin k strengthens the bone matrix a vegetable rich diet provides adults with sufficient amounts. vitamin k supplements are not necessary for calcium from food to reach the bones. one thing

is crucial. the sun. when sunlight hits our skin, the body produces vitamin d, which is important for bones. so how about a salad of green vegetables and cheese talked with sesame seeds and enjoyed outdoors. while these foods are bone boosters? remember that a very died of whole foods is key. in order to be healthy, you need to make sure you're getting the right amount of micro nutrients, but around the world, there are big regional differences. one such example, iodine countries on the asian and american continents tend to be in good supply. but in some african countries, russia and germany to many suffer from an iodine deficiency, this can affect the function of the thyroid gland and potentially have an impact on cognitive development. when make practices cup where he has to stay

really focused on the brazilian dance, like martial arts requires absolute coordination of body and mind when he was diagnosed with his work in cyber with lan, 3 years ago, mic feared the worst. but he's on his way home and how they had fallen unpunished. when i started having test, i was afraid i'd never be able to do the boards again the spot. so it was pretty unpleasant. i was out of lucas for a few nights where i didn't cry on them, but i was really worried because sports such a big part of my life. and i'm, i'm needing to talk to him or on his pediatrician spotted the changes to mix thyroid gland by chance, steering a routine checkup. but the swelling wasn't noticeable just by looking at it as a. there are many things that can cause thyroid gland to swell its own, which are of course, rather rare. and children as they like firewood gland tumors on infectious diseases,

auto immune diseases and how she motives disease. but the most common thing in children is iodine were fish and sees trauma in a swollen thyroid as a result of iodine deficiency. bidding to share it with a blood test confirmed the diagnosis. nick didn't have enough thyroid hormones, a condition that usually comes from an iron in deficiency. thyroid hormones are necessary for various metabolic processes and are among other things crucial for a person's energy level and mental abilities. as an insulin, the find the worst case iodine deficiency can lead to concentration problems are still in common. that's a common symptom among people who haven't undetected iodine deficiency and then the advisor is if it goes untreated though, it can really lead to psychological disorders in children, i'm thinking and i lied, and lack of a mixed case wasn't so severe. he didn't even have any of the typical early

symptoms of this woman shawn milo. hello, robins, onto should really pay attention when children suddenly run out of energy listless, or suddenly start gaining weight as a result of a lack of activity. these are all signs that can point not only to iodine deficiency, but to a corresponding underactive firewood gland called hypo thyroid isn't with think that should cruise one, telephone, 11 possible reason make had this problem in the 1st place, can be traced back to germany. soil because it only contains small amounts of iodine. this means food grown there also contains very little of the vital mineral . but thanks to the introduction of iodine table salt in the 1980s, peoples id and intake went up. still studies show that nearly 60 percent of all

children in germany suffered from an id in deficiency year. how we decide to change our family diet. we started using iodized, so it was a pretty easy dietary change to make. and we also started eating more fish for him . following his diagnosis, mick took id and supplement for 3 months. today he has come in to have his thyroid looked at again. the pediatrician is able to see the organ with the help of an ultrasound. dr. martini wants to know where the mix thyroid tissue shows, signs of enlargement or other changes. but the doctor is satisfied and the, it gets my, make this little guy, roy looks really good. so the gland, which was significantly swollen, has gone down in size, indicates that eating just a little bit differently, leading more fish into the tablets has led to very good results is good,

go on because make was diagnosed and treated early. he has not suffered from cognitive damage. if that had happened, he most likely would not be able to practice cub were're as well as he can today. me. anyone feel the urge to get moving? our coach vivian has a tip. let's execute a lunch bench your knee until you come in the 90 degree and you try to keep your back straight. land. just wary effect. the exercise which trains the glue tears muscle and this i pull
