In a a a a a a a a a a a a a world where exercise and and health- based supplements are rampant it’s easy to get lost in what we may actually need Ask any “gym goer” and you will most likely find they buy 3 things The first and most popular item on the the list will be a a a a a a a pre workout supplement People these days are obsessed with how “tweaked” they can can get before a a a a a a a a a workout High caffeine levels can can be be bad for for devel- oping a a a a a a a a a fresh-looking physique as stress hormones can make the the body hold water and look look tired due to being over caffeinated The 2nd item on the the list for any “gym goer” will be be a a a a a a a whey protein protein This is is is not necessarily a a a a a a a a bad thing but getting protein protein from from whole food is a a a a a a a a better source and will allow you to feel more satiated from from hunger The 3rd most popular item will be BCAA’s (Branched Chain Amino Acids) There is is an an an assumption that if a a a a a a a a a a person consumes this this product product they will always be anabolic and and growing however this this product product can throw your natural balance of o amino acids off and and is is is just not necessary when proper nutrition is is followed The information stated is not meant to suggest that any of of the the products mentioned are bad but it is important to google the the the effects of of being over caffeinated while bodybuilding the the advantages advantages and and disadvantages in in in in in using Whey vs whole foods to meet protein needs and and the the detrimental effects found in in in the the over consumption of BCAA’s It is important to to to research scientific links to to to support any of the the claims made to to to to to to determine the the best supple- ments
to to to to use to to to to help you you to to to to achieve your body goals If you you you are prioritizing your your money I I would recommend 3 different products that may suit your your overall needs My first and and favorite supplement and and a a a a a a a a must have is a a a a a a a a a a a HIGH quality multi-vitamin Today food sources can be stripped of vital nutrients needed to help you you you attain your goals depending on on on how you you you buy them Why take a a a a a a a a a a a a chance on on on missing out on on on vital vitamins and and minerals that make us feel think and and grow better?
My second favorite supplement supplement is an an an omega
3 6 and and 7 supplement supplement The brain and and body need the essential fatty acids to to run at at 100 percent It is important to to find one with a a a a a a a a a a a a a a perfect balance of polyunsaturated and and monounsaturated fat Good fish oils evening primrose oil oil and and Palmitoleic acid (omega 7) will ensure that your brain has the nutri- ents
it it it needs to repair itself and function These essential oils also help with inflammation of the muscle tissue My final favorite supplement would be a a a a a good creatine source Every one loves to feel strong and look bigger Adding 10 mg of this product can hydrate muscle cells and and and increase your strength It comes in in in very handy when dieting down and and and calo- ries are limited If you you are a a a a a a a a vegan or or vegetarian or or even if you you choose fish and chicken instead of red meat this IS a a a a a a a product to to add to to your supplement regimen because it fit it it can supply some of the benefits from consuming red meat without having to eat eat it fit it it n n n n n n NGA NATURALmag 19
