Vitamin C

 

Vitamin C is one of the two main antioxidants. If you don’t take it, you can’t effectively fight the free radicals. Free radicals are DNA-damaging agents, brought to existence by many factors, one of which is heavy lifting.

Based on my knowledge, I searched to find the Vitamin C product that is not harsh on the stomach (it has neutral PH); contains bioflavonoids that work synergistically with it; it doesn’t contain any fillers, additives, colors or flavors, and it is affordable (it is actually cheep).

The Vitamin C product that I am taking is Ester-C by Country Life.

Multivitamins For Men

 

I don’t feel any need to explain to you why multivitamin and mineral formula is important. If you don’t know why and you haven’t been taken one… too bad for you.

At this moment my favorite multivitamin and mineral formulas are two. They have everything a man would need. They even have digestive enzymes and are natural with no flavors, additives and fillers.

So, here are the winners - my all-time best multivitamin is Alive No Iron Added by Nature's Way, and my second choice - Max For Men by Country Life.

Multivitamins for Women

 

If you are a female and you are not taking multivitamin and mineral formula, you should start right now! It doesn’t have to be what I recommend. Just go and buy something Anything! The food we eat is so macro and micronutrients depleted… Trust me. You need a multivitamin formula every single day!

What I recommend to my female clients (my wife too;-) is what I find to contain  everything just like the men’s formulas. Again I equally like two multivitamin products. They are both natural, easy on the digestive system, and provide what is so important for women (especially if you are like my wife) – hormone support, immune and stress support.

The multivitamins that I've found to be excellent for women are Maxine by Country Life and Nature's Way Alive with Iron.

Multivitamins for Teens

 

Teens are in special need for vitamins and minerals as they use up a lot for growth and development. Like I already said the food doesn’t contain the nutrients it did about 50 years a go. So, don’t think that if you eat healthy, you have everything you need in your system (or your teenage kid).

The formula I like for teens is from the same company I chose for men’s and women’s multivitamin formula. The quality is the same. Everything is there:

Vitamin E

 

Okay. Did you read about Vitamin C. I said it is one of the two biggest free radical scavengers. Well, Vitamin E is the second. When on search for it, it is very important that you choose Vitamin E with the d- form of the tocopherols. This is the only active form for humans.

I found one, which contains 4 of these d-tocopherol forms and that’s why it is called Vitamin E Complex. This is the only one I am taking until I find something even better - Natural E Complex by Country Life

Vitamin B Complex

 

B vitamins are very important for the carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. A lot of them are also very important for the red blood cell production – more hemoglobin equals more oxygen, carried in the muscles. And that’s what makes them absolutely essential for athletes, and even more for bodybuilders.

The best you can find as B vitamins today is the Coenzyme B Complex. It contains all the necessary B vitamins. And because it is in a coenzyme form, it doesn’t require any conversion by the liver, thus it is carried straight to the action sites, where it can perform its duties. Moreover, less of it is required to do the job.

The B vitamin that I am taking is Coenzyme B Complex by Country Life.

Calcium

 

Calcium is known as the main building material for the bones. But that’s not all it does. I have a whole article on Calcium and its importance as fat loss agent. Many people don’t know also that without it our muscles will NOT be able to contract!  

Also it is absolute must for us - bodybuilders as we ingest huge amounts of protein. Why? Because the body needs Calcium to neutralize the acidity, from the protein metabolism. And if we don’t provide dietary Calcium, the body takes it from the bones.

The Calcium that I am taking contains the fractions, which are most bioavailable. It also comes with Magnesium and Phosphorus – minerals that play a main role for the Calcium absorption. So, this is my choice - Calcium Magnesium Complex by Country Life.
