How does workout and diet impact business success?

Some of the cognitive benefits that can be expected as a result of incorporating regular workout routine into your daily routine are:

  • improved concentration,
  • better memory,
  • faster learning,
  • long-term mental endurance,
  • lower stress levels.

It has also been shown that physical activity impacts mood, directly related to work productivity.

An interesting scientific study conducted at Stanford University in 2014 showed how little is needed to increase our potential. Namely, the scientists discovered that the respondents’ values for creativity increased by as much as 60% after workout (that is, walking) compared to thinking in a sitting position.

Correct dietary decisions during the working day

The fast-paced lifestyle does not contribute to the modern businessman’s efforts to preserve his health. Unquestionably, the lack of nutrients harms our health, and some health conditions that arise due to nutritional deficits include depression, dementia, poor work productivity, chronic fatigue, impaired vision, and loss of muscle strength. A crowded daily schedule, frequent meetings, and the consequent lack of free time often become an excuse for bad eating habits. The choice usually falls on fast food restaurants, meals based on red meat, or the occasional bite of a sandwich by the computer or on the feet, so proper exercise and nutrition fall into the background.

Therefore, the organizational skills used daily at the workplace should also be implemented in caring for one’s health. One way to implement this is to prepare meals in advance that can be quickly taken to work. Let that meal contain a quality source of protein such as white meat, fish, or tofu, a mixture of vegetables that suits you best, and a side dish rich in carbohydrates such as buckwheat, couscous, or sweet potato – foods that are prepared very quickly. When choosing a lubricant, you should select one with a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, for instance, olive oil. These foods can be combined in the form of salads or invigorating stews.

Workout and diet require nutritional supplements

Regular workout increases the need for certain nutrients that will maintain the health of muscles, joints, bones, heart, and blood vessels. For the building of muscle tissue after workout to be optimal and the joints to be protected, it is essential to provide the necessary nutrients. Since adequate nutrition in a busy lifestyle is a rarity, it is often the case that daily needs for such nutrients still need to be met. To take full advantage of the benefits of exercise and rapid muscle recovery, L-carnitine is an essential nutrient that should be paid attention to, and the unique combination of vitamins D3, K2, vitamin C, and undenatured collagen type II helps to maintain normal functioning of muscles and bones.

What is the role of L-carnitine?

There are numerous functions of carnitine in the human body, and the best known is its role as a carrier of fatty acids through the cell membrane into the mitochondria. There, they are burned and then used as a source of energy. In other words, L-carnitine helps the body produce energy and is necessary for heart and brain function and movement. Therefore, it is not surprising that the highest concentration of L-carnitine is precisely in the tissues that primarily use fatty acids as a source of energy, such as skeletal and heart muscles. If there is insufficient carnitine, fats are not used to create points but are increasingly deposited in muscles and fatty tissues.

Undenatured collagen type II – crucial for workout and diet

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body, which plays an essential role in constructing various forms of connective tissue, joints, hair, and skin. We distinguish several types of collagen. Each of them has a different role in the body, and collagen type II is concentrated to the greatest extent in the joints since it is an integral part of the cartilage structure, the connective tissue of the joints.

L-carnitine as a dietary supplement for recreational athletes 

Scientists point out that L-carnitine supplementation can alleviate pain and tension and reduce protein breakdown in the muscles accompanying intense workout, thereby preserving muscle mass.

Another role of L-carnitine in post-exercise recovery is to alleviate exercise-induced oxidative stress. The research results show that L-carnitine can reduce the production of free radicals so that the muscles are not exposed to so much damage during a workout. The scientists conclude that L-carnitine as a dietary supplement benefits recovery after a workout, making it easier to introduce healthy exercise and nutrition as a daily routine.

L-Carnitine Active+ contains the purest form of L-carnitine, CarnipureTM, and chromium, which contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients and thus supports the metabolism of fats in the body.

A unique blend of nutrients for everyday joint mobility

Motion Support+ is a preparation containing UC-II® – a natural standardized active component representing a particular form of undenatured collagen type II.

It is recommended for physically active people of all ages who want to improve joint mobility and preserve cartilage, bones, and muscles. It also intends to maintain bone and muscle mass and joint mobility for mature and older people with locomotor system problems.
