Achieving a healthy lifespan through nutrition: The story of the "materials that make up the body" that support bodywork and exercise
Nutrition supports chiropractic and exercise.
Re･Set provides total support by balancing protein, vitamins, and moisture to extend your healthy lifespan from the inside out.
1. Why nutrition is deeply connected to "healthy life expectancy"
No matter how hard you try with chiropractic or training, if you don't have enough of the building blocks for your body, no change will occur .
In order to extend your healthy lifespan, it is essential not only to keep your body in shape and moving, but also to get the right nutrition .
The muscles, bones, hormones, nerves, and immune system that make up our body are all produced by the food we eat every day.
What you eat and how you eat it will determine your future physical and mental condition.

2. "Difficulty in recovering from fatigue" and "Loss of muscle mass" may be signs of poor nutrition
As we age, our metabolism and appetite slow down, making us more susceptible to a lack of essential nutrients .
As a result, the following problems occur:
-
Loss of muscle mass, prone to falling and fatigue
-
Chronic stiff shoulders and back pain
-
Weakened immunity and susceptibility to catching colds
-
I can't get rid of my fatigue even after sleeping
This is not a sign of aging, but rather a sign of functional decline due to malnutrition.
Nutritional support is also necessary to maintain the body that has been toned through chiropractic and exercise.

3. Nutritional balance that supports the body with "three pillars"
1. Protein – Building Muscles and Recovery
It is the building block for muscles, hormones, and the immune system, and is the most important nutrient that supports a healthy lifespan.
To prevent muscle loss due to aging (sarcopenia), aim for 1.0 to 1.3 g per kg of body weight per day .
💡Recommended ingredients:
Chicken breast, fish, eggs, tofu, natto, yogurt
Research has shown that a protein intake of 1.0–1.3 g/kg/day combined with resistance training is effective for muscle maintenance (Deutz et al., Nutrients , 2014).
② Minerals and vitamins - Supports nerves and metabolism
Magnesium, iron, calcium, zinc, and vitamins B, C, and E,
A "lubricant" that aids muscle metabolism and nerve transmission.
It also helps to recover from fatigue, stabilize the autonomic nervous system, and improve the quality of sleep.
💡Recommended ingredients:
Vegetables, seaweed, nuts, fermented foods (natto, pickled vegetables, miso, etc.)
Reference: The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (2025 Edition)" points out that vitamin and mineral deficiencies may be a factor in shortening healthy life expectancy.
3. Water - Maintains circulation and prevents fatigue
Water makes up about 60% of the body and is an important element that supports blood flow, body temperature, and waste excretion.
Dehydration can also lead to poor blood flow, muscle tension, headaches, swelling, and chills.
💧 Recommended: 1.5-2L per day (excluding coffee)
Research has also shown that mild dehydration can reduce concentration and muscle power output (Popkin et al., Nutrition Reviews , 2010).
4. Exercise and protein go hand in hand
Muscle stimulation through exercise and protein intake should always be considered in conjunction.
Training causes microscopic muscle damage, and proteins are used to repair and strengthen muscles .
This cycle creates a body that can move.
Correct distortion with chiropractic treatment,
Exercise to move your muscles,
Support it with nutrition.
These three pillars are the "golden balance" for extending healthy life expectancy.

5. Summary - "How to eat" is also part of chiropractic
Chiropractic is not just about "adjusting the outside" of the body, but also about adjusting the internal environment .
