Supplementation and Health

Supplements Can Enhance Your Healthy Lifestyle
Supplements are not only meant for body builders and athletes. Many ordinary individuals take advantage of supplements and reap great rewards. They can enhance your diet and exercise efforts. Learn more about what supplements are available and how they can help you.

Common Supplements and Vitamins 
The most common supplements that body builders take include whey protein, amino acids, creatine, glutamine, and glucosamine. Many personal trainers recommend a vitamin B complex supplement. This provides your body with the essential vitamin Bs that your diet needs. It is also a good idea to take a fish oil pill for added omega 3 fatty acids. Remember, these supplements do not replace diet and exercise. Instead, they enhance your efforts and add to your health.

Please talk to your doctor or registered dietitian for specific supplement recommendations. I do not recommend a one size fits all vitamin regimen for anyone because each person is different and unique. You should get most of your nutrition through diet. Supplementation can be beneficial if you are not getting enough to make sure you are meeting your needs. I would mostly recommend a multivitamin and omega-3 supplement. Also, you may need extra vitamin D depending on your levels.
