In the pursuit of peak performance and optimal health, runners often find themselves at the crossroads of nutrition and supplementation. The question of whether to take vitamins, when to take them, which ones can be taken together or clash, and the ideal timing for each, is as complex as it is confusing. Add to the mix supplements like protein drinks, pre- or post-workout enhancements, amino acids, and electrolytes, and you're left with a concoction that could potentially do more harm than good to your performance, health, and overall wellbeing.
As many of you know, I've been an advocate for proper nutrition and supplementation for years. My journey began with my wholehearted belief in a vitamin company that customized nutrition for my clients and friends for years and I still regard as one of the leaders in the vitamin and nutrition space. However, as I grew older, my body's needs changed due to shifting conditions and hormones, prompting me to seek additional solutions beyond morning and night vitamin packs.
The challenge grew with my busy work schedule and marathon training, which often left me with little time for real food during the day and a handful of vitamins to consume at night. This was far from ideal and unsustainable in the long run. It became clear that I needed a solution that was not only science-backed and third-party tested but also one that my body could absorb at a cellular level. After all, what's the point of taking supplements if your body doesn't use them effectively?
After extensive research and some trial and error, I discovered a set of six products that truly resonate with me. Each one provides a nutritional foundation and delivers essential nutrients at a cellular level, ensuring that my body utilizes them fully. This approach has been a game-changer for me, aligning my supplementation with my body's actual needs and contributing positively to my training and overall health.
