In traditional Chinese culture, providing the body with the proper nourishment and allowing the body
to use these nutrients to regulate
and balance itself is referred to as the Philosophy of Regeneration or the Philosophy of Balance.
The Philosophy of Regeneration consists of four principles:
1. Nourish, balance, and cleanse:
The body has the innate ability to create
Yin-Yang balance
and order when properly nourished and cleansed.
You need only provide your body with the proper nourishment and trust the inner wisdom to do its job!
"When Sunrider started, I first
developed the SunPack®. The products in the SunPack® are the foundation for optimal
health:
1) NuPlus® fills in your nutritional gaps with micronutrients,
2) Quinary® balances the body’s
five systems.
3) Calli®
contains antioxidants that assist the body’s natural cleansing process.
Today, the SunPack® is still one of our most
popular product packs because it works......, but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve developed more products
to address my own specific needs. Two recent products have especially helped me:
MetaBooster® and MetaShaper™."
The Founder of Sunrider, Dr. Tei-Fu Chen sad
2. Whole foods, not chemicals: The body is designed to recognize whole foods that nourish,
not chemicals. Consuming chemicals such as protein powders and multivitamins causes malnutrition because it has a difficult time handling chemicals.
Dr. Chen sad: "If you eat too many chemical isolates that are in most protein powders
or vitamin pills, it can cause a lot of problems. Too much protein may cause irreversible kidney damage.
Too much vitamin C increases the aging process. When vitamin C is left intact within an orange, it is part of
what makes an orange a food, but the minute you pull it out of its original “life structure”,
vitamin C becomes a chemical called ascorbic acid.
Sunrider’s trade secret process preserves nutrients in their food form for easier digestion and absorption."
3. Wide variety of whole foods: The body needs a variety of nutrition and a balance of nutrients. Unfortunately, in foods today, no one ingredient is perfect or sufficient to nourish the body.
Dr. Chen sad: "There are many kinds of foods with good and bad points, but there is no perfect food. Even antioxidants
are not perfect. Unfortunately, many people overlook this important principle. They focus on one
ingredient, one juice, or one category of nutrients as a cure-all because it’s simple. The reality is that our bodies
are very complex and we need to eat a variety of foods. We have five major systems, and each system
requires different foods to provide the proper nourishment and support."
4. Formulation and concentration: When foods are properly combined, they are formulated to work together to create a stronger food.
That means the strong point of one ingredient can cover the weakness of another.
Dr. Chen sad: "Successful formulation—how to put the foods together in the right combinations, proportions
and concentrations—requires knowledge, experience, creativity, and the ability to utilize the knowledge
and experience of the past. All of these elements are necessary to fully realize the
Philosophy of Regeneration™. Sunrider borrows from China’s 5,000
years of practical experience and improves upon it. Over time most things in life change, but food is not
one of them."
