'My Spring Supplement Support' 👍 An insight into the supplements our own chiropractor takes...
Nothing complicated — just a return to the fundamentals that tend to drift over winter:
Magnesium — helps with muscle relaxation and sleep quality. I use this more in the spring when the lighter mornings make it harder to stay asleep once the sun's up. If not, my brain just wants to get up and go!
Omega-3 — Great for joint and heart health, as well as helping with inflammation and offsetting too many omega-6s (in processed foods etc.) I generally take this when I haven't eaten oily fish in the last 2 days.
Creatine — Not just for the gym; supports energy and cognition, especially when sleep-deprived or stressed. Check out Rhonda Patrick's work online if interested in the new research and science on Creatine, especially for women and vegans.
Protein intake — Often the missing piece when people increase activity or have physical lifestyles. Not everyone needs to calorie or macro count, but having a rough idea of your protein needs and approximate daily consumption isn't a bad idea and getting it right can make the difference between achy sore muscles and low energy and feeling great.
No magic hacks — just things that consistently work when done well.
