Supplements To Help Dads Stay Fit (Gift Ideas for Father’s Day)

  • 3 min read

Being a wonderful father demands a lot. And one of the biggest things they may offer their children is to support their health so that they can be the best father they can be.

 

Aside from eating well and exercising regularly, crucial vitamins and nutrients are essential, for example,  Vitamin C, Calcium, and Vitamin D.

 

Some may claim that we may acquire all of our nourishment through eating. However, today's fast-paced lifestyle might make this a fairly hard task. Especially when the food produced meets the needs of an "instant" world. Thus, taking supplements might be an additional option to a balanced diet.

 

Here are some supplements that may help fathers (or any male) stay in great shape:

 

Magnesium Glycinate

Magnesium has been said to assist both men and women, including heart health and helping with getting restful sleep.*

Aside from calcium, a sufficient intake of magnesium is essential for strong bones. Magnesium also aids the nervous system, as well as supports mood and cognitive function.*

According to the study by Dr. P. Mason, Magnesium is especially crucial for men's health. As he said, "Many Americans are magnesium deficient, and supplementation of this mineral is associated with increased testosterone levels in both sedentary and active adults,"[1]And therefore, men have a higher demand for magnesium on average since they frequently (but not always) carry more weight.

 

Nature's Branch Magnesium Glycinate is created with elemental magnesium and fiber to help with sleep, leg cramps, muscles, and heart health.

Probiotics

 

You've probably heard the phrase "everything starts with a healthy gut." And Probiotic supplementation is common among individuals.. Superior sources of probiotics can come from fermented foods such as kefir, kombucha, kimchi, and sauerkraut.[2]

 

Probiotics come in a range of Colony Forming Units  (CFUs) and normally contain a variety of different strains. It is always best to consult your doctor or physician before taking a probiotic supplement

 

Nature's Branch 60 Billion Probiotics are designed to assist digestion and support the immune system. They include a premium composition with 10 strains and prebiotic fiber to help increase absorption in the stomach. Nature's Branch Probiotic additionally includes 60 billion live culture colony forming units in each easy-to-swallow capsule for daily use—one a day for convenient consumption.

Omega-3

Omega-3 is an important fatty acid usually found in fish (such as salmon, tuna, and other fatty fish), seeds (such as flaxseeds and chia seeds), and oils (flaxseed oil). However, you may also take the supplement version. These may help support general heart health and mobility. Furthermore, omega-3s may help with inflammation while also supporting skin and nail health.[4]

 

Nature's Branch Triple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil supplements provide fatty acids like EPA and DHA to help support the brain, heart, joints, eyes, and hair. Each of our fish oil softgels is molecularly distilled and third-party tested for potency, quality, and safety.
