A. What is Biochemistry?

Biochemistry is both life science and a chemical science - it explores the chemistry of living organisms and the molecular basis for the changes occurring in living cells. It uses the methods of chemistry, "Biochemistry has become the foundation for understanding all biological processes.* Google Source 

B. What is Chemical Fitness? 

Most people are aware of physical fitness, few appreciate the importance of chemical fitness for a healthy human. In a simple sense, "Physical fitness" is a "visible part" of you, on the other hand, "chemical fitness" is the "dark matter or invisible part" of you. The dark matter is the foundation of our universe; the "chemical fitness" is the foundation of your personal universe or your body habitat.

C. Do athletes live longer? 

No. Of the 200 Marathon athletes, 60 — or 30% — had died, leaving 140 still alive at the time of the study. Researchers found the average age of death for the study participants overall was 73, but the average age for the surviving elite runners was 77.May 14, 2024* google source. __This finding is consistent with the cardiac calcium test findings: emerging evidence suggests amateur athletes have increased coronary atherosclerosis compared with less active healthy controls. Athletes more often had CAC scores ≥100 Agatston units, which was associated with their lifelong exercise volume and intensity of exercise training.

D. How do I stay "chemically fit"?

When your oxygen or water/fluid supply is disrupted, you can get help from traditional medicine. Similarly,  when your body habitat is disrupted, you may get help from the holistic medicine such as Habitat Medicine. 

In some cases, "DIY" is all you need especially when you have extensive knowledge in nutrition and healthy lifestyle. On the other hand, "DIY" may not be adequate when your biochemistry study results have become abnormal and/or you have suffered persistent physical symptoms e.g. various allergies.. irritable bowel.. skin rash.. joint pain or stiffness.. upset stomach.. fatigue etc. 

In short, your body habitat needs to become chemically fit as soon as possible before it collapses and lands yourself in an emergency room.
