• Study shows that taking 3k mg of vitamin C before a stressful task helps blood pressure and cortisos levels return to normal more quickly.  Vitamin C has been shown to reduce cortisol levels which is very important to do post  work out.  "Blood pressure" is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. If this pressure rises and stays high over time, it can damage the body in many ways. You will most often see blood pressure numbers written with the systolic number above or before the diastolic, such as 120/80 mmHg. (The mmHg is millimeters of mercury—the units used to measure blood pressure.) .   What is cortisol ?   is a type of hormone produced in the body that is best known as the “stress” hormone. It is produced during times of stress (exercise) and elicits the ‘fight or flight’ response which helps us to perform exercises.

.          Bioidentical hormones are custom-mixed formulas containing various hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally made by your body. 

• Magnesium and vitamin D help maintain good muscle and nerve fuction. Vitamin D (cholecalciferol) is a pre-hormone, its important role in regulating body levels of calcium and phosphorus, and in mineralization of bone. Vitamin D is metabolized into a potent steroid hormone called calcitriol, More recently, it has become clear that receptors for calcitriol, are present in a wide variety of cells, and that calcitriol, has biologic effects which extend far beyond control of mineral metabolism.

                

• Total body magnesium content is approximately 25 g (1,000 mmol), of which 50 to 60 percent resides in bone in the normal adult. One-third of skeletal magnesium is exchangeable. Magnesium transport into or out of cells appears to require the presence of carrier-mediated transport systems

• For strong and healthy bones , look to calcium and vitamin D as well as other bone-fortifying minerals such as manganese, copper, magnesium and zinc.

• Optimal nutrient absorption, take oil-based supplements after a meal, and water based-ones before a meal.  Follow strictly the manufacturer's instructions on the label.  The Optimum Daily Allowances are estimates based on what the science is showing us to be the most beneficial intakes of nutrients. If these levels can be achieved from diet alone then there’s no need to supplement.

• Zinc is an essential mineral for immunity and growth -  Adequately feeding your immune system boosts its fighting power. Immune boosters work in many ways. They increase the number of white cells in the immune system army, train them to fight better, and help them form an overall better battle plan. *8 Foods that boost Immunity :  1. Carotenoids. 2.
