Vitamins That Men Should Be Taking Daily
We all have stood there in the vitamin isle and looked dumbfounded with no clue what to buy. There is just so many to choose from but some of them you don’t even need. In the next few paragraphs I will explain the best vitamins men should take everyday to help your health and protect your body.
A Multivitamin
This is the best thing you can do for your body. Humans never get the right source of vitamins they need daily even if they eat healthy. It is wise to take a Multivitamin daily. On the Bottle look for 100% of daily value for 12 essential vitamins which are vitamins B, C, E, and zinc. You do not need the mega doses which are 500%. You only need 100% daily, you should take half in the morning and half at night to make sure you get the most absorption.
Calcium
Calcium is a necessary supplement for strong, healthy muscles, bones and teeth. You need to take it in combination with magnesium (to prevent the negative side effects of calcium) and vitamin D (to help the body absorb calcium) in order to get the biggest benefit. You should take 600mg of calcium with magnesium of 400 mg and vitamin D with 1,000 IU. Make sure you take it before you eat with 8oz of water. Calcium can also block other vitamins from being absorbed so make sure you take them separate.
Fish oil
Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids called DHA and EPA which benefit the function of the heart and brain. It also reduces inflammation in vein which can reduce heart attacks. You should have a minimum of 600mg of DHA omega-3 fatty acid. Take it in the morning with breakfast for optimal absorption. Make sure to check the label to see if the bottle needs to be refrigerated.
Baby aspirin
Although it’s not a supplement baby aspirin can help you from the risk of heart attacks. Take 2 a day and consult your doctor before taking.
Probiotics
Probiotics are awesome for maintaining heath. Probiotics are the healthy bacteria found in your intestines. They help with digestion and your immune system. Probiotics are found in milk, and yogurt, but you can also find them in pill form.
Chondroitin sulfate
This gives cartilage the resistance it needs and prevent osteoarthritis. You should take between 800-1200mg a day to prevent the loss of chondroitin sulfate.
