Athletes are constantly exposed to heavy physical exertion, as a result of which their body needs additional support. This support is provided by special vitamin complexes, which contain all the vitamins and minerals necessary for endurance and recovery of the body.
Types of vitamins
Special vitamins for athletes are designed in such a way that their components do not conflict with each other and are absorbed as correctly as possible. They are designed to increase the level of vigor, strength indicators, immunity and many other functions of the body's vital activity. These vitamin complexes include Daily Formula (Universal Nutrition), Animal Pak and Vitrum Performance.
A very important advantage of special vitamins for athletes is their ability to replace sports nutrition.
The Daily Formula vitamin complex is produced by a foreign manufacturer, but is very inexpensive compared to professional sports vitamins (from 300 to 400 rubles). After taking them, there is an increase in energy, endurance and an improvement in mood - for this it is enough to drink one tablet once a day with breakfast or two tablets on training days. Animal Pak, created specifically for athletes, contains not only vitamins and minerals, but also amino acids combined with an energy drink. They dramatically increase productivity and energy levels in the body with the help of a shock-acting complex of useful substances. And, finally, the American vitamin complex "Vitrum Performance" has proven itself perfectly during high physical exertion and thanks to the composition of more than 20 vitamins and minerals.
How to choose sports vitamins
These products are recommended to be purchased in large chain pharmacies, sports stores and specialized salons, where not only special vitamin complexes are supplied, but also a lot of sports cocktails, fortified bars and energy drinks. They contain amino acids, l-carnitine, guarana extract, carnitine and vitamin B, which is essential for athletes, which accelerates metabolism and reduces body fat.
The highest quality sports complexes with vitamins and minerals are produced by manufacturers such as Genesis Nutrition, Universal and ISS.
In addition, sports nutrition stores are very sensitive to their reputation, so it is much more difficult to buy fake vitamins from them than from the same pharmacies. This is due to the release of these drugs, which are designed for a rather narrow circle of buyers, so professional athletes prefer specialized stores. Also, before purchasing this or that vitamin complex, you should consult with a sports doctor who will correctly calculate the required dosage.
