All-Day Energy

Both vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients. For this reason, supplementation in athletes becomes fundamental, since their caloric (energy) needs are greater and therefore their intake of vitamins and minerals also increases, because, for example, they lose more minerals through sweating; in addition, due to physical exertion, metabolic requirements are greater and therefore so are vitamin requirements. Furthermore, All Day Energy provides significant antioxidant protection, due to the fact that vitamins A, C, E, the mineral Selenium, and EGCG, from Green Tea, act as powerful antioxidants. But what is the function of antioxidants? It is to prevent the damage that free radicals, formed during intense exercise, can cause. This damage results in pain and a feeling of swelling in the muscle, in addition to hindering glycogen recovery, potentially causing DNA damage, decreasing aerobic capacity, and therefore reducing muscle performance. - Minerals have regulatory functions and are part of the structure of many tissues: they make up bones and teeth, control body fluids, are part of enzymes and hormones involved in metabolism, and some are antioxidants. - Vitamins are of great importance for maintaining health, as their deficiency causes diseases. Furthermore, they are essential for athletes because they are involved in energy metabolism and, as we have already mentioned, some of them are powerful antioxidants (A, C, and E).
