ENDURANCE ATHLETES NEED MORE ⬇️⬇️⬇️
When you exercise, you physically damage musculoskeletal tissues – it’s why you get sore after overexertion. Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage (EIMD), Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) – whatever you call it, it’s something we are all too familiar with.
Your immune system cells are front and center with mediating the repair of damage, spewing signals called myokines and cytokines in a carefully orchestrated sequence. 🦠 More damage means a call to your immune system to clear out debris and the inevitable hiding places for microbes to get a foothold inside of you. That process is a normal, short-lived inflammatory response that initiates recovery and prevents illness.
Currently, a hot topic with researchers on DOMS/EIMD is showing that exercise causing you to ache and even get Upper Respiratory Tract Symptoms (URTS) without being sick is a normal, carefully graded, immune-mediated response to strenuous exercise – something like a prologue cough. Instead of being an actual infection (URTI, usually viral), URTS is caused by the same signals the immune system uses to signal damage to cells during infections when there is no infection. You feel the same as if you were sick. 🤒
It’s critical for your immune system that ALL the essential vitamins and minerals (“MVMs”) are provided in the appropriate and complementary amounts needed to power your immune cells and support the function of every other MVM. In MultiV, the more important MVMs are in amounts that provide a buffer for times of intense need, especially vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, iron, magnesium, selenium, and zinc.
Additional nutrients like yeast beta glucan, boron, Ginkgo biloba, green tea and an antioxidant blend from 29 fruits, vegetables, and spices add new dimensions to immune support by supporting system-wide processes and monitoring.
More than ever before, the new MultiV supports your immune system with its comprehensive, balanced MVM and active nutrients profile.
