Summer is approaching fast, and many people are using this time to work towards their fitness goals.
Body-builders and exercise novices alike use fitness supplements like protein powder and pre-workout drinks to help them on their journeys, but did you know that there are daily supplements that can help you reach those goals too?
Here are a few of our favorite fitness supplements for people working towards a more active lifestyle.
Systemic Enzymes
If you exercise regularly, there’s a chance your muscles may not be fully recovering the way they need to. Recovery is essential for effective and safe training as it allows our bodies time to heal and rebuild the small tears in our muscles after exercise. This process is responsible for preparing our muscles for the next training session and it plays a big part in preventing exercise-related injuries.
As we recover in the hours and days following a workout, our muscles become inflamed during the healing process. This inflammation is what causes muscle pain and soreness after exercise.
However, there is a solution that actually may help your muscles recover faster and with lessened soreness: systemic enzymes.
Systemic enzymes, also called metabolic enzymes, are responsible for every process in your body: muscle movements, immune response, fighting infection, brain function, and more. In fact, every single cell in our bodies, in every tissue and organ, uses enzymes for building and repair. These enzymes reduce inflammation and speed up our bodies’ ability to heal.
One of the best ways to increase your body’s level of systemic enzymes is to take a supplement.
We provide fast-acting Active Systemic Enzymes that may act as an all-natural anti-inflammatory and pain reliever. In addition, these enzymes also may help to reduce cholesterol, support heart health, and boost immune response, making it a well-rounded fitness supplement with whole health benefits.
Silica
Silica is an essential trace mineral that is largely responsible for our bodies’ formation of collagen, the most abundant protein in the human body.
Silica provides strength and flexibility to the connective tissues around the body — cartilage, tendons, skin, bone, teeth, hair, and blood vessels — as well as strengthens bones by facilitating the deposition of calcium and other minerals into bones. This helps to prevent joint tears and fractures and may reduce the risks of developing osteoporosis.
As we age, silica levels drop, which can affect the body’s ability to maintain adequate levels of collagen. This can lead to joint weakness and increased risk for bone fractures, especially for people who are working to maintain an active lifestyle.
One of the best ways to ensure you are getting a sufficient amount of this collagen-promoting mineral is by taking a daily supplement. Silica Plus, a high-quality nutritional supplement developed by Vibrant Nutraceuticals, is here to help you increase and monitor your daily silica intake to ensure you are getting the quantity you need.
Melatonin Gummies
While most people wouldn’t associate melatonin gummies as a fitness supplement, studies suggest that sleep quality before and after exercise impacts results. According to Advanced Sleep Medicine Services, Inc., “researchers suspect that deep sleep helps improve athletic performance since that is when the growth hormone is released. Growth hormone stimulates muscle growth and repair, bone building, and fat burning.”
If you are struggling to get the amount of sleep your body needs, there’s a good chance your fitness results are suffering because of it.
Our chamomile-flavored Melatonin Gummies serve as a highly effective sleep aid. Each gummy contains 5mg of melatonin and less than 1 gram of sugar to help you sleep better for longer periods of time, and without a sugar high.
