Discover the Power of Science-Backed Natural Supplements for Ultimate Health and Fitness

Rhodiola Rosea: The Stress Resistor

Sport and Physical Activity: Rhodiola Rosea, an herbal adaptogen, enhances athletic performance by reducing oxidative stress and muscle pain, aiding muscle recovery, and boosting explosive power during training sessions.

Fatigue Symptoms: Regular intake of Rhodiola significantly reduces fatigue, especially with prolonged low doses or high acute doses.
Muscle Damage: This powerful herb can reduce circulating levels of creatine kinase, a marker of muscle damage, and exhibit anti-inflammatory properties, offering slight improvements in muscle protection.

Ashwagandha: The King of Ayurvedic Herbs

Power Output: Ashwagandha supplementation leads to significant improvements in power output during sprint tests and strength training.
Weight and Muscle Strength: Users experience greater muscle strength, increased muscle size, and reduced exercise-induced muscle damage compared to placebo.

Testosterone and Endurance: While it may boost testosterone in men with fertility issues or those undergoing strength training, its effects on normal men remain uncertain. It can also mildly enhance endurance in athletes.

Beetroot: The Nitrate Booster

1. Power Output: Beetroot juice, rich in nitrates, has a small-to-medium effect on muscle power, particularly with acute intake.
2. Muscle Damage: While it improves jump performance and strength recovery post-exercise, its effects on inflammation and muscle soreness are minimal.

L-Carnitine: The Fatty Acid Oxidizer

1. CRP and Muscle Soreness: L-Carnitine reduces muscle soreness and circulating levels of creatine kinase, aiding in quicker recovery.
2. Exercise Performance: Supplementation enhances exercise performance by reducing blood lactate and oxidative stress responses during resistance training.

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA): The Mitochondrial Energizer

1. Muscle Gain and Strength: ALA improves creatine uptake into muscles, potentially increasing muscle strength and reducing damage during intensive training.
2. Muscle Recovery: ALA supplementation helps reduce oxidative stress markers, supporting faster recovery.

Caffeine: The Stimulatory Powerhouse

Power Output: High doses of caffeine (around 6mg/kg body weight) reliably boost power output in both trained and untrained individuals.
