Recovery Nutrition

Greetings!

In the spirit of the Olympic events, this week's tip is dedicated to

Recovery Nutrition - how to rebuild your nutritional storehouse post-game, workout, hike or other activity. People are active to varying degrees and there are general nutritional strategies to use, in order to feed your bones, joints, ligaments, heart and immune system.

Food

Eat a complex carbohydrate and protein post activity, such as oatmeal or quinoa hot cereal. Stir in some whey or hemp protein and goat or rice milk. A combo like this helps move insulin from the bloodstream to the muscles for energy.
Eat very little fat post workout, game or hike. Fat at this time slows down absorption of food through the intestines. This inhibits fat burning and energy production.

SUPPLEMENTS

Consider using an amino acid supplement such as Aminogest, with a full complement of amino acids or proteins to feed your muscles and repair tissues.

Use a super anti-oxidant to buffer free radical damage and keep your heart strong post workout. I like Phyto Rad Antioxidant. It is simple to carry with you and easy to take.

Rehydrate and remineralize with Rehydration and SpectraMin drops to replenish your electrolytes. Just 5 drops of each of this dynamic duo in your bottle of water will do the trick. Avoid conventional sports drinks with sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine and chemical additives.

We tend to ignore recovery post-workout. We take for the rebuilding process for granted. But lost nutrients don't just fall out of the sky. The body needs to be fed when your storehouse of nutrients becomes depleted.

Re-fueling properly after physical activity also helps yield the results you want. Good results encourage you to continue. It feels good to feel good.

To your progress,

Dr. Laura Thompson and Staff
