Multivitamins
and Minerals
Because
most peoples diets lack the proper nutrition (whether due to poor diet or foods
generally lacking nutrients in the quantities we need). Unless there is an
underlying medical issue, most people need a vitamin & mineral
supplement. Be sure to review the
ingredients and consult your doctor before starting a new supplement to make
sure there isn't anything that will hurt you in it.
For
the regular Joe and Jane Fitness, I usually recommend a vitamin supplement like
NOW brand Adam (for men) or Eve (for women).
They are easy to take and inexpensive.
For
beginner and intermediate athletes I recommend Orange Triad. OT has pretty much everything you need and a
joint supplement all in a convenient regiment (3 doses a day).
For
intense athletes, I turn them to Universal Nutrition's Animal Pak line. The Pak is 11 pills (yes that's a lot) that
have been formulated to time release for optimum efficiency. The Animal Pak is not just a multivitamin
though, it also has digestive enzymes,
BCAAs, Antioxidants, and Performance Blends. The Animal Pak line also has other "add
on" supplements such as joint support (Flex) or Pre-workout (Rage) that
are formulated to work best with the Animal Pak.
