Happy hormones are released and stress hormones are suppressed during physical exercise. But all the lifting, running, and moving around will eventually make you feel exhausted. This blog post reviews some of the best post workout supplements to help you recover faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best post workout supplement for joint pain: Glucosamine Complex<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not true at all that only older people have joint pain. The modern sedentary lifestyle has led to a massive increase in overweight and obese individuals, including youngsters. According to the World Health Organization, over 1.9 billion adults were overweight in 2016. Approximately 35% of them were obese (1<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Unfortunately, the excess weight can be hard on the joints, especially the hip and knee joints. If weight isn\u2019t managed, there\u2019s a high risk of developing osteoarthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and many other health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working out to lose weight is a step in the right direction. And taking our Gluc<\/a>osamine Complex<\/a><\/strong> may bring you closer to your weight loss goals. This product features 8 ingredients known for their anti-inflammatory and joint health benefits.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s what\u2019s in every 3-capsule serving of our Glucosamine Complex<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* 1500mg Glucosamine<\/strong> \u2013 this amino sugar may help produce and maintain cartilage, the connective tissue that protects joints against impact. It may also support the structure and function of joints (2<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* 200mg Boswellia<\/strong> \u2013 a popular Ayurvedic herb that may provide pain relief to tired joints (3<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* 150mg Chondroitin<\/strong> \u2013 a building block of cartilage. This compound may help preserve cartilage and help with osteoarthritis management (4<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* 150mg Turmeric<\/strong> \u2013 this is known as the \u201cgolden spice\u201d in Ayurveda. It’s well-known for its anti-inflammatory benefits (5<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* 25mg each of Quercetin, Methionine, MSM, and Bromelain<\/strong> \u2013 these ingredients have also been shown to have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving benefits (6<\/a>, 7<\/a>, 8<\/a>, 9<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best supplement for sore and stiff muscles: Omega-3 Fish Oil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Omega-3 fatty acids <\/a><\/strong>offer a wide range of health benefits, especially the two fatty acids called DHA and EPA. Both are found naturally in fatty fish. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"can<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Even the FDA recommends eating at least 8 ounces of fish per week. Doing so may help you enjoy the full range of nutrients found in fish, including Omega-3 (10<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the post-workout front, Omega-3 fish oil may help reduce stress levels, reduce body fat, and increase lean muscle mass (11<\/a>). It may also help reduce DOMS or delayed-onset muscle soreness, a condition usually caused by muscle overuse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, studies show Omega-3 may help reduce pain and inflammation by increasing blood flow to the damaged muscles (12<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking Omega-3 fish oil when working out<\/a><\/strong> may have a positive effect on muscle mass and strength. There are a number of studies on this subject, but the most notable one looked at the effects of Omega-3 on athletes. After taking 1.1 grams of Omega-3 for 21 days, the athletes showed significant improvements in muscular gains, strength, and function (13<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For best results, take our Ultra Pure Omega-3<\/a><\/strong> when you\u2019re snacking on something healthy (preferably with a bit of fat to help with absorption). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each serving contains 2,250mg of Omega-3 fatty acids. We use superior triglyceride fish oil, not the cheaper ethyl ester form. This is how you know you\u2019re getting the very best quality fish oil!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Best supplement for post-workout inflammation: Curcumin Phytosome<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Curcumin is turmeric\u2019s most potent compound<\/a><\/strong>. It\u2019s known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and pain-relieving properties since ancient times. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Taking Curcumin after exercising may therefore help reduce inflammation and support faster recovery.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one study, participants who took this compound reported lower muscle pain and inflammation. Curcumin also helped reduce lactate accumulation and even improved DOMS symptoms (14<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the problem with ordinary Curcumin is that the body doesn’t absorb it very well. If you want to experience its post-workout benefits, choose a bioavailable form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Curcumin Phytosome<\/a><\/strong> is the perfect example of bioavailable curcumin. It comes in two dosages \u2013 250mg<\/a><\/strong> and 500mg<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We use Meriva\u2019s patented formulation, which is 2900% better absorbed than ordinary Curcumin!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies on Meriva Curcumin showed amazing results, especially for osteoarthritis patients. For instance, Meriva Curcumin significantly reduced pain and stiffness. It also helped patients walk longer distances than before (15<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best post-workout supplements for skin and muscle health: Collagen + Vitamin C<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Collagen is made up of various amino acids, the building blocks of protein. While collagen isn\u2019t considered a complete protein (it lacks the essential amino acid, tryptophan), it does contribute to faster muscle recovery after strenuous exercise (16<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"take<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Taking collagen after resistance exercises may also help improve muscle mass and body composition (17<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are better options than collagen if you want to bulk up like Arnold Schwarzenegger. But if you want a supplement that can help you recover faster post-workout and make your skin, hair, and nails healthy, then collagen is the right choice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For best results, take our Collagen Peptides <\/strong>supplement. Unlike full-length native collagen, our Collagen Peptides are readily bioavailable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you take our collagen, the body can use it right away (no further biochemical conversions needed). It\u2019s flavor-neutral and also really easy to take. Just take a scoop and add it to your favorite post-workout drink!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, it\u2019s important to take collagen with vitamin C<\/a><\/strong>. This vitamin is a cofactor in collagen formation, meaning the body can\u2019t produce collagen without vitamin C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best source of vitamin C is fruits and veggies. But if you\u2019re not getting enough of this vitamin from your diet, consider supplementing with our Liposomal Vitamin C<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike ordinary ascorbic acid supplements, our Liposomal Vitamin C offers superior absorption rates. Our product may help you benefit from everything this essential vitamin has to offer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best post workout supplement for relaxation: MagEnhance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not at all uncommon to experience muscle cramps or spasms while working out. They can be unpredictable and very painful. One moment you\u2019re lifting weights or running on the treadmill. And the next you\u2019re down on the ground writhing in pain, your muscles literally tightened into a knot. The pain may last several minutes and the area may continue to feel tender hours later! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two main culprits behind workout cramps are muscular fatigue and electrolyte imbalance (18<\/a>). While muscular fatigue is somewhat preventable, monitoring electrolyte levels is more difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there is one important electrolyte or mineral that\u2019s been studied for decades that can help prevent and relieve muscle aches and spasms. This mineral is Magnesium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magnesium is involved in over 600 biochemical reactions in the body, including transmitting signals between cells in our spinal cord and muscles, allowing us to move. Low levels of magnesium in the body can contribute directly to muscle spasms (19<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, taking our MagEnhance Triple Magnesium Complex<\/strong> can help increase your body’s magnesium levels. Each serving of MagEnhance contains 3 types of magnesium:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
