Last week myself and AoifeRose looked at ways to get motivated for the new year and we promised that we would talk about some supplements that might help you achieve your goals.
If you are worried about getting colds and flu if you go out and about mixing with people, I suggest One Nutrition Revive & Go Immunity. It contains Vitamin C in an absorbable form alongside Zinc. These two vitamins work well together to support and protect your immune system.
Energy is often another reason or excuse why you don’t make it to the gym or get out for the fresh air walk. Diet, lifestyle, and good quality sleep have a huge impact on your energy levels. You are most likely cutting back on sugars, excess refined carbs, alcohol, and caffeine so what else can you do? Make sure you have a varied wholefood unprocessed diet that includes plenty of water. Make sure that you are getting enough Omega 3 either through food or supplements.
If your energy is still low despite a healthy diet, maybe you are not getting adequate sleep. If so, try Irish Botanica Seesta. This is a brilliant supplement, well at least it is for me. I love it, I don’t have to take it every night, not now anyway. It helps me switch off my busy mind, helps my body relax and I fall straight back to sleep if I do wake up. It contains Ashwagandha, Chamomile, Hops, and Magnesium.
Maybe your recovery after exercise is poor and pain and discomfort are slowing you down. AoifeRose suggests Magnesium as it is ideal to help relieve sore muscles after training. She likes Cleanmarine Magnesium as it is in a nice easy to swallow capsule.
Ashwagandha is extremely versatile supplement to support energy, help overcome the effects of stress and to help recovery after exercise. It can certainly tick some of the boxes listed above. Take a look at KSM-66 Ashwagandha this is a specific, highly concentrated full-spectrum form of Ashwagandha root extract. It is known for its high potency and standardised production process. This is the most researched and widely used form of the herb and is known for its potency and is a trusted form of Ashwagandha.
