Two supplements are invaluable in this equation: Glutamine and Collagen! These two form the power duo for sports.
Exercise causes a form of increased metabolic stress and quickly depletes glutamine in the body and if levels fall too low, it can have extremely damaging effects on the body. Pure glutamine is better than the sucralose, flavourants and other toxins added to sports supplements today.
Glutamine supplementation can ward off the damaging effects of oxidative and metabolic stress in the following ways:
- Reduces muscle breakdown
- Helpful for calorie restricted diets (they increase muscle breakdown)
- Helpful for fat-burning
- Great for weight loss
- Builds muscle while burning fat
- Essential for glutathione production
- Shortens recovery time
- Improves recovery after surgery and during chemo
- Removes cravings for sweets, carbs, tobacco and alcohol (even some drugs)
PURE HYDROLYSED COLLAGEN is a powerful supplement for athletes and couch potatoes alike. Mine is grass-fed, non-GMO PURE Hydrolysed Collagen which offers you the best chance to heal your gut, joints, improve hair and nails, and prevent/smooth out wrinkles. Best of all it keeps you young on the inside too.
A few of collagen’s many benefits when taken daily supports:
