How can you get the best benefits of regular exercise—without placing your body at risk in the process?
All of your workouts’ positive effects begin with oxidative phosphorylation, a pathway that your body uses to generate energy (known as adenosine triphosphate or ATP) at the cellular level.
Supplementing with nutrients that will help your body to replenish its essential ATP levels. This will improve muscle function plus increase your heart’s stamina and help it to keep up with the demands for more ATP during exercise.
Whether you’re a casual exerciser or an amateur athlete, look for the highly bioavailable form of CoQ10, preferably the second generation CoQ10-H2™, for a supplement-based strategy that can reduce your recovery time plus maximize your strength, energy and endurance throughout each and every workout.
Studies show that excess free radical exposure can pave the way to DNA mutations, premature aging and cell death, muscle weakness, fatigue and chronic oxidative stress. D-ribose is a pentose sugar that can help to maintain ATP regeneration in your body, especially following exercise.
Extensive research shows that safe, natural substances including vitamins A, C and E, N-acetyl cysteine, lutein, rosemary leaf extract, turmeric, green tea, bilberry and grape seed extract are all potent free radical quenchers.
Studies document that D-ribose can supply extra amounts of ATP to your heart muscle in particular. Meanwhile, the popular antioxidant coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) also plays a vital role in ATP synthesis, and can improve energy production when your body is under physical stress.
It’s no surprise, then, that research shows that regular CoQ10 supplementation can boost exercise tolerance, lessen fatigue and improve physical performance in active subjects. Unfortunately, this respiratory process—paired with your muscles’ contractions and additional environmental factors like certain preservatives in foods and beverages, sun exposure and smog—produces by-products that pollute your body and lead to the formation of damaging free radicals.
Moderate exercise is great but be careful not to over do it and certainly, most definitely, supplement.
