Food is your fuel.

 

The right diet is essential for any athlete, you could have a sports car that goes near the speed of light but if that car is running on chip fat oil its going nowhere fast. Food is your fuel , a runner needs strong and durable muscles, joints that can withstand hours of abuse, and a good circulation. I have started taking three food supplement products  that have left me feeling like a brand new, well oiled, virgin. Here are three products I recommend to any serious athlete.

Number one: Glucosamine for joint care.

like many runners I run up to hours at a time and the effect this can have on your joints can be devastating. These allow your joints to cope providing flexibility and quicker recovery time. Glucosamine helps build joint cartilage , manufactured in a laboratory from chitin, a substance found in the shells of shrimp, crab, lobster, and other sea creatures.

From looking at the market for glucosamine products allot of companies use ingredients that are questionable, however the safest and most effective product out there is in my opinion the Sci-Mentor Joint Support Formula which can be found online at various websites such as www.bodyactive-online.co.uk.

Number two: Fish oils for circulation.

Fish oils not online aid in joint protection but they also help circulate the body so your body runs like a well oiled machine.  Fish oil comes from fatty fish, such as tuna, cod liver, salmon and most fish that live in deep, cold water.

From extensive research on my part into the market the best products out there come from Natures aid. A family company that pride themselves in natural and responsible sources. These can be found at www.healthstore.uk.com

Number three: branched-chain amino acids for Muscle protection.

A athlete needs reliable muscles that are going to keep up with you, amino acids are critical in muscle development combining this in your diet your body will be protected and resilient to injury.

 From shopping around Multipower have come across as the best provider of this supplement. They specialise in sport products and this amino complex from my research has proved the most effective. These can be found at www.multipoweruk.com.
