Sports Nutrition SupplementsPremier Research Labs
This sports nutrition supplements guide is from a recent interview with Dr. Marshall, founder of Premier Research Labs. These products are the ones I use when I am sick and run down. They work fast and get right to the cell. I use Hammer Nutrition specifically for racing and these for racing and every day life. Below are the sports nutrition supplements that are essential for me. It is what Premier Research Labs recommends for athletes.
ANTIOXIDANTS
We have had a 50% reduction in the antioxidants in our soil over the last 25 years. This has made a weaker athlete, who is aging fast and getting injured more often. Evidence of this is seen in the number of distance athletes wearing glasses. When you take the antioxidants DHLA, with CoQuinol and B-complex, you have the ability to up-regulate ATP, clear waste products, improve kidney function and improve the endocrine system.
Just 1/2 t. will clear the effects of 1500 miles of travel. If you travel 3000 miles take, 1 t. Green tea with B-Complex, and DHLA improves connective tissue and flexibility. It also helps get your PH in the ideal zone.
Melatonin is a super player. It gets in every fat cell. Two-three drops for men are recommended. Six-twelve drops can be used for women who are intensely training. Women are to take more due to their higher body fat percentage. This is taken before bed. It is also great for jet lag. I really notice a difference in my quality of sleep when I am taking this.
Co-Quinol and Max Stress B regulate ATP, clear waste products, and improve function of the kidneys and endocrine system. The endocrine system can also be supported with Adaptogen
herbs. This allows, greater buffering of acid and gives us more power. The Adaptogen also helps in regulating the hormones that go crazy with extreme exercise. These sports nutrition supplements have made a difference in my performance and health!
INJURY AND ILLNESS
Studies done in Switzerland, Canada, and England showed Nucleotides reduced injury-healing time by 67%. For those with surgery or an injury this is a key player in your sports nutrition supplements.
I use these frequently and they work! This has been one of our family’s favorite supplements for stopping a cold that is coming on. It is shown to reduce cold and flu symptoms in 1 day or less if you use it at the very start of the cold or flu. If you wait until it has a death grip on you, it will still knock it out in 3 days. When we over-train it leads to a reduced immune system. The East Germans did a study on 6-11 year olds. They took their resting heart rates each morning. Each time the heart rate was 5 beats above normal, within 24 hours they had an infection. I take my heart rate every morning. It lets me know how hard to train and if I am fighting infection. It can also be elevated if I trained too hard the day before and the body didn't recover. Sometimes I need to train hard even with a high heart rate. Dr. Marshall recommends taking the Nucleotides and in his words keep on trucking, as they will start the healing! One of the best ways to monitor the amount of sports nutrition supplements you need is to watch the resting heart rate each morning. It is the key to what is going on in your body regarding infection. Take your heart rate for one minute before getting out of bed. Take it daily to monitor changes.
JOINT FLEXIBLITY AND FLUIDITY
One of the main reasons for stiffness is abusing protein. Some athletes take 400-500 grams per day. This devastates the PH. Bones must give up their minerals to buffer the blood PH. You in turn are getting fewer minerals and are more likely to get injured. Red Meat is mostly what many athletes are consuming, who are getting this much protein. It causes lactic acid due to the waste products. To get back on track Dr. Marshall recommends cutting down on the amount of protein to no more than 1 gram per kilogram of body weight. The HCL detox kit (hydrocholoric acid), digest caps (enzymes), DHLA and Green Tea will help reduce the waste products and get connective tissue loosened back up. The second issue with joint fluidity is the overloading of the kidneys, liver and gallbladder. If you have tightness in the neck and deep in the connective tissue, it is due to a weak liver. If you are weak in the great muscles such as the hamstrings you do not have optimal kidney function. Detoxing the kidneys will free the sinews. Dr. Marshall suggests you detox the kidneys, liver and gallbladder and with fewer toxins in your connective tissues you can return to great power and flexibility. One last thing he suggests is using a clarisonic device for toxic tight muscles. You can also use the pain relief cream and attar for that individual. He states this is fast and easy and will really loosen you up.
RECOVERY: LACTIC ACID
For the best performance Dr. Marshall recommends the Super Food Trio. This include Coral Calcium, EFA oil, and Greens Mix. Getting your PH balanced is one of the foundations for good performance. If you are using EFA oil while traveling this is great, because your body always used the good oil first. If your diet is not the best on the road this will help. Brain complex- with phosfitals will reduce recovery time up to 50%. It is very critical in intense training to use this supplement. Green tea outperforms all the other antioxidants per unit, but does not get very free radical like Green Tea. Together along B-complex you have a powerhouse of supplements.
He still says the best way to clear lactic acid is sleep and exercise.
