Vitamins and minerals are nutrients that are essential to the metabolic processes and functions of the human body. Vitamins can be found in many healthy foods and may be beneficial to those prone to deficiencies such as pregnant women, elderly people, vegetarians and sports people. The average person with an adequate diet will presumably consume all essential vitamins from their daily food consumption. However, those with potential deficiencies quite commonly use vitamin supplements. As athletes and bodybuilders participate in gruelling training sessions on a daily basis, much of the food they consume is worked off in the process. This includes any vitamins they may consume. It is basically impossible to then consume even more food to make up for this potential deficiency.
Common vitamin supplements for sports people are stacks of numerous nutrients rolled into one convenient product. Most vitamin stacks will also include minerals such as zinc, calcium, copper, magnesium, iron, potassium and sodium & are perfect to take in conjunction with other supplements such as protein powders, pre-workout, intra workout & post workout supplements.
Vitamins & Minerals are commonly presented & sold as Complementary Medicines, Registered Therapeutic Items or Goods and Formulated Supplementary Sports Foods in Australia. Vitamins & Minerals are not a sole source of nutrition and should be used in conjunction with an appropriate physical training or exercise programme. Not suitable for children or pregnant women. Should only be used under medical or dietetic supervision. Always read the label prior to use.
