Men’s Health- Staying healthy at any age

Father’s Day is fast approaching, and families are trying to find new ways to show their dads how much they love him. What better gift can you give than health? Your dad’s health and wellbeing are better than a box of chocolates and a pint of beer. That is why we want to demonstrate some of the top supplements to gift your dad this Father’s Day.

B Complex

B vitamins work well together by helping your body convert food into fuel. They maintain your metabolism and keep your brain alert- so they are amazing all-rounders [1]. This B vitamin complex will help your nervous system and keep your hair, skin and eyes looking great [2]. These can lower bad cholesterol and boost your good cholesterol, and level out your stress hormones. B vitamins also work in supporting the adrenal glands which also helps keep your kidneys healthy, as the adrenal gland is the first responder to stress, so B vitamins are vital in stress management [3].

There are so many more reasons why B vitamins are good for the body, and this is why, our B Complex is the perfect gift this Father’s Day.

Vitamin and Mineral Complex-

Our Vitamin and Mineral Complex is a high standard multivitamin. It contains many essential vitamins to promote general health and wellbeing. It specifically includes Selenium, which an average man, is 26% more deficient than the recommended intake. This mineral supports immunity and has also been linked with a reduction of cancer [4].

Our Vitamin and Mineral Complex also contains Vitamin E. Not only is it a potent antioxidant, but it also boosts immune function and reduces the appearance of scars and blemishes. Another interesting finding is that Vitamin E has been proven to be great for anti-aging [5] and even helpful in fighting off diseases such as Alzheimer’s [6].

Antioxidant Complex

By taking an antioxidant daily, this will help to detox the body and limit the long-term cellular damage of modern urban factors, such as cigarette smoke, chemicals, and alcohol. Antioxidants are also really beneficial for exercise as they counteract oxidative stress. [7] This means that by taking an antioxidant as part of a healthy lifestyle, this can limit any potential damage to joints, tissues, and muscles. Another plus is the support that antioxidants provide the liver. Our liver processes our hormones and taking antioxidants has been shown to improve liver functioning to ensure that our hormones are balanced [8].

Zinc

Zinc is vital for protecting the immune system and sperm. It does this by helping to support normal testosterone levels. Having low testosterone levels can have a lot of unpleasant side effects for men such as fatigue, loss of muscle mass and even erectile dysfunction [9]. Increasing the levels of zinc in your diet can help correct some of these problems. Zinc is also essential for a healthy prostate. Although prostate problems are most common in older men, it is never too early to star looking after your prostate. Zinc can help reduce the risk of developing an enlarged prostate due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
