Health and Fitness SupplementsNatural Supplements and Remedies
If you take any natural health and fitness supplements or remedies, you should take only what works for you and the only way to find that out is to experiment. You might wish to first check with your physician before trying anything new for health and fitness. If you have any existing medical condition, you should certainly check with your physician before trying anything new.In the first part of this section, we looked at natural weight loss supplements and remedies. If natural weight loss is of interest to you, you might care to read that page first.
to Natural Weight Loss Supplements and Remedies Listed below are what I (Dr. Dennis Bradford) use in order to give you some ideas that might be worth trying—or not. The health and fitness supplements are listed in no particular order. They seem to work well for me, and, perhaps, they will work well for you. I use the dosages recommended by the manufacturers. (If you are also a master strength trainee, these dosages may be appropriate for you.) Please note that health and fitness supplements do not replace healthy eating. If you have not yet read our section on eating for health and fitness, please do so when you finish reading this page [the link is listed at the bottom of this page].
For health and fitness vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, I use Nutrilite's DoubleX daily.
Also, since I do not always eat the 8 to 10 servings of vegetables daily that I should, I take two tablets of Nutrilite's CONCENTRATED FRUITS AND VEGETABLES daily, which provide phytonutrients from 10+ servings of fruits and vegetables. I take six Nutrilite's (Ocean Essentials) HEART HEALTH softgel fish oil tablets daily.
I take coenzyme Q10 (ubigtuinone) daily. I use Nutrilite's COENZYME Q10 COMPLEX. I take 300 to 600 mg of PS (Phosphatidyl Serine) daily. Because it's the least expensive, I use the brand from a nearby health food store. I take creatine. I take a couple of capsules of Kre-Alkalyn before a strength training session, and I put a scoop of MuscleLink's CreaSol in my post workout shake. Less expensive brands may work just as well.
For health and fitness digestive enzymes, I take (betaine HCL and pepsin) daily. I use a brand either from a nearby health food store or from GNC. I usually have one of Nutrilite's XS protein shakes (chocolate fudge) daily. On days when I do strength training, I use Accelerade (available online or from GNC) during training. I use MuscleLink's Recover X (with a scoop of their CreaSol) for my first post-strength-training shake and Nutrilite's XS whey protein powder from my second post-strength-training shake. I sometimes use MuscleLink's Muscle Meals as a meal replacement.
For health and fitness, single amino acids can be beneficial for certain conditions; for details, see the Ross and Larson books I recommend (click on the LEARNING link above). Herbal remedies also work well for some people. (Dosage should not be exceeded.) Homeopathic remedies also work well for some people. If homeopathic remedies don't work, they are harmless to your body. My best friend and co-webmaster of this website has used alternative medicine throughout most of her life. She is a great advocate of natural medicine and in particular constitutional homeopathy. Whatever health and fitness supplements or remedies you decide to take, remember to use them in conjunction with our health and fitness eating guidelines. If you have not yet done so, see the following section of our website:
