Sports Nutrition to Reduce Inflammation Resulting from Exercise

This is such a good article for our athletes on the importance of keeping your inflammation better managed through better hydration, nutrition, and supplementation.

The key points of the article:

1.  Stay hydrated with water, coconut water, and green tea. 

Recommendation:  If you are needing additional help with electrolyte support, I highly recommend "Endura" or "Heed" because it supplies the magnesium, in addition to potassium and sodium, that almost all other electrolyte drinks fail to include while avoiding the added sugars.

2.  Replenish vitamins and minerals lost through exercise with a high quality multivitamin/multimineral supplement. 

Recommendation:  Choose a certified pharmaceutical grade multivitamin/multimineral for better absorption, in order to avoid flushing the investment in your health down the drain.

3.  Avoid common inflammatory foods, food sensitivities and allergies.  Consume anti-inflammatory foods.

Recommendation:  Consider ALCAT testing from our office to more specifically identify your individual food sensitivities that drive inflammation in your body if you are overwhelmed with identifying food sensitivities on your own. 

We want you to perform better, both on and off the field, by reducing your inflammation response that results from exercise!
