Vitamins & Minerals – What You Need For Optimal Performance
When it comes to meeting your vitamin and mineral needs, don’t go by the RDA’s (recommended daily allowance) that’s set forth by the government. They are antiquated and too low. Keep in mind that the RDA’s that are on food labels were established back in 1941 to try and prevent World War II soldiers from getting sick and dieing from vitamin and mineral deficiencies. They were not set for optimal levels of health and athletic performance. |

Just because you consume enough vitamins and minerals to stay alive, doesn’t mean that you are consuming optimal levels to maximize your strength, health, and athletic performance.
Even a minor micro-nutrient deficiency could short change the entire muscle building process and bring your gains in the gym to a screeching halt…
Even if you are eating a high calorie / high protein diet!
Thanks to the modern invention of processed food, we now live in a society where it is possible to overeat to the extent that one becomes obese; yet can still be malnourished on the cellular level from a lack of essential nutrients.
Most processed foods today are stripped of their healthy vitamins and minerals and then loaded with preservatives, so they are nothing more than empty toxic calories.
For guys who are in the gym working out on a regular basis, you are placing even more demand and stress on your body, and you need more micro-nutrients than the average Joe.
So that’s why I recommend that you pay particular attention to your diet to ensure that you are consuming adequate vitamins and minerals to meet your body’s needs.
