When extolling the virtues of multivitamins as supplementation to your muscle building foods, there is one that stands out head and shoulders above the rest. I am, of course, talking about vitamin C. I have said before, that you could write a book about vitamin C - here are its' benefits.
During strenuous work-outs, oxygen will mix with other compounds to produce what we know as `free radicals` - metabolic waste products, these can cause major damage to your cells. Vitamin C, as a powerful anti-oxidant, can stop these free radicals from forming and neutralize any which are already formed.
Vitamin C increases the body`s ability to absorb iron, which helps produce hemoglobin, which in turn aids performance. Low iron levels will limit the weights you are able to lift, and how long your lifting session will last.
How much muscle you can build is directly linked to your anabolic hormone levels - vitamin C helps your body to produce these hormones.
It is widely known that vitamin C is a vital block in the wall of our immune system, keeping up defenses against viral diseases such as colds and flu. We can now see that vitamins, especially vitamin C, should be used as a supplement to your muscle building foods.
For the average person, the recommended daily intake of vitamin C is 60mg. For athletes in training, this amount would need to increase dramatically - for those in very hard training, like bodybuilders, it would need to increase even more. Some top bodybuilding coaches recommend increasing your daily intake to at least 500mg, and up to 1500mg, depending on your work-out regime. You can also top-up your intake by eating vitamin C rich natural muscle building foods such as; Oranges, Apples, Tomatoes, Red peppers and Green peppers.
Keep it natural.
