Every year, sports injuries cost the society billions of pounds in surgical operations, examinations, and lost earnings. Broken down joints, broken bones from playing football, running, skiing, etc. keep a large number of doctors occupied with putting together and repairing injuries in order to get people back on their feet - literally speaking - in order to let them continue where they left off. Unfortunately, you will often be put off with pain-killing pills which will reduce your pains to be sure, but they will also inhibit your body's own self-healing processes.
Sport is fun and healthy most of the time - not a word against it!
The question is, however, if there is anything we can do to strengthen our joints and bones, improve our physical fitness, reduce muscular pains, and promote the healing of large and small sports injuries.
When our body is damaged, it is exposed to a biochemical reaction which liberates a storm of free radicals. This is the way of nature - the way it is meant to be - but free radicals also cause damage; they postpone the healing processes and also weaken the immune system.
For this reason, it is important to prevent and to heal sports injuries by means of e.g. antioxidants that place an extra oxygen molecule onto the free radicals, thereby causing them to lose their harmful effect. The antioxidants are substances such as the vitamins A, -C, and -E, and selenium. Together with such a substance as zinc, these substances contribute to strengthening the body's own healing abilities.
When you exercise, your body consumes more nutrition - you will therefore more easily become deficient in nutrients. Therefore, it is important to drink plenty of fluid and to put together a nutritional program that corresponds to which strains your particular kind of exercise involves. Most coaches are good advisers in this field.
Moreover, our Vitashop has several formulas designed to prevent and strengthen the healing of sports injuries - from sore muscles to more serious injuries:
Energy Sports Formula is compounded with special reference to replacing lost nutrients and strengthening the body under serious strain.
Proteozyme Forte is a unique mixture of vitamins, minerals, bioflavonoids, herbs, and tissue-building substances used in order to promote healing of e.g. sports injuries.
Bio-Sport is used by many athletes because it inhibits the development of sore muscles and other symptoms of strain and overload.
