A strong physique is of course not just a beautiful muscular body. It is built on a foundation consisting of bones, tendons and a strong immune system. Sufficient exercise in combination with a varied diet or a balanced diet is of course super important. But those who perform at the top of their abilities can of course use a little extra.
But what keeps our body healthy and vital and which vitamins, minerals and other substances play an important role in this?
Stack vitamins and minerals for a powerful immune system
Your immune system is the human body's defense system. It ensures that pathogens are rendered harmless. This information is then remembered, allowing your body to defeat a virus or bacteria in a second attack. A good and strong immune system keeps you healthy and that is a good science. Especially if you want to deliver ultimate sports performance.
Your immune system may not be working properly (temporarily) or needs to recover, which may make you more susceptible to viruses and infections. Supplements can help keep your body healthy. Make sure that the basics are in order first: a healthy and varied diet, enough rest and sleep, sufficient exercise, little stress, good care and hygiene. Supplements can be an addition to this. Vitamins A, C and D3 contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system. As well as zinc and selenium. The latter 2 and vitamins E and C also protect your cells against oxidative stress, which affects tissue and can damage healthy cells.

Strong bones
Recovery after heavy physical work or strength training or endurance sports is important. Not only for your muscles but also for joints, cartilage and bones. There are various supplements that are good for maintaining strong bones, ligaments and tendons. Below are a number of known substances that contribute to this.
Collagen and phosphorus
Supplementation with collagen in combination with phosphorus contributes to reducing joint pain in people with osteoarthritis and sports injuries. It also has a beneficial effect on our energy level and metabolism.
Calcium
The mineral calcium plays an important role in maintaining strong bones. You can get calcium from many foods such as nuts, seeds, figs and green leafy vegetables. If you have a calcium deficiency due to your diet, supplements offer a solution.
Vitamin C and D
\Vitamin C contributes to the maintenance of good bones. Together with vitamin D, it provides firmness and contributes to the development of muscles, bones and joints. In addition, vitamin D increases the absorption of calcium in the bones.
Of course, there are many more supplements or substances that contribute to this. The JointFit from Stacker 2has 10 active ingredients.
Multivitamins
Many people swear by multivitamins to supplement their daily routine, healthy lifestyle and diet. However, there are much more complete supplements on the market today. For example, check out our Multi Kick. No, not in a pill, capsule or tablet, but a powder that you dissolve in water. Not only is the taste good, but it contains no fewer than 32 active substances such as vitamins, minerals, greens, bioactive substances, antioxidants and micro nutrients. That makes this product much higher quality and more complete than multivitamins. Moreover, the body absorbs it faster.
