Best Supplements For Your Man
With Father’s Day around the corner, I thought it would be the perfect time to highlight some of our favorite vitamins and supplements for men. Although Noah works out 6 days a week and eats mostly plant-based, he still takes vitamins to ensure he gets the nutrients he needs.
Unfortunately, most aren’t getting the recommended amount of daily fruits & veggies that provide essential vitamins and minerals that our bodies need. In fact, in a recent study, the Centers For Disease Control (CDC) found that 76% of adults don’t eat enough fruit and 87% of adults don’t eat enough vegetables.
Those numbers are staggering. It’s no wonder so many suffer from diseases and ailments.
To avoid this, we recommend eating more fruits and vegetables as well as taking daily vitamins. Vitamins are a great way to bridge any nutritional gaps and ensure you’re getting the right amount of nutrients. You can’t eat perfectly every day so it’s a good idea to look at vitamins as an insurance policy for support on those days.
I’ve rounded up our favorite supplements and I’m going to share why each one is important to take.
But first, let’s talk about what to look for when choosing vitamins.
It’s important to know that not all vitamins are created equally. You must read ingredients and look for key components.
I’m a big advocate of reading labels and knowing what my food is made of. The same is true when I’m looking for vitamins and supplements. It’s just as important to read labels and know what is in your vitamins.
When I look for vitamins I want one that is made using organic vegetables and herbs, non-GMO Project Verified, no sugar added, and free from synthetic fillers. New Chapter products check all the boxes and so much more.
You can rest assured knowing they’re:
Easily digestible, gentle enough to take any time – even on an empty stomach
Made with certified organic vegetables and herbs
Non-GMO Project Verified
100% Vegetarian
Kosher
Gluten-free
No synthetic fillers, no artificial flavors or colors
No animal gelatin, no added sugar (added to some gummy vitamins)
Round-Up of Our Favorite Men’s Vitamins + Supplements
Every Man's One Daily Multivitamin
A multivitamin is a no brainer because well, it’s giving you tons of essential vitamins all in one tablet. It’s a win-win in my book. I love this one because it’s fermented for better absorption. Plus, it has probiotics added to help with digestion. This multivitamin also provides immune, heart, and energy support.
New Chapter’s Every Man’s One Multivitamin goes above and beyond just addressing nutrient deficiencies. They also provide superfoods like turmeric, maca, and ginger. And it offers Vitamin D3 for heart support and B Vitamins to promote energy.
Turmeric Force
Turmeric is one of our favorite supplements to take because it’s so powerful. It helps manage inflammation in the body and it’s a powerful source of antioxidants. Reducing inflammation in the body is an important part of maintaining a healthy immune system.
Turmeric is a flowering plant in the ginger family. It’s been deemed the most effective nutritional spice in the world. Turmeric contains different compounds including curcuminoids. An important curcuminoid and the strongest active compound in turmeric is curcumin.
Curcumin is a powerful compound and helps maintain a healthy inflammation response. It is a powerful whole-herb extract that delivers hundreds of remarkable Turmeric compounds just like the whole rhizome, complete with Curcumin as well as Turmerones
And the good news is that it’s super easy to take every single day! It’s recommended you take ¼ tsp of turmeric every day to achieve all it’s healing benefits. Getting your recommended daily amount is as easy as taking New Chapter’s Turmeric Force
Magnesium + Ashwagandha
Magnesium plays a big role in helping your body and brain function properly. It’s found in 60% of our bones while the rest is in our muscles, soft tissues, and fluids, including blood. It’s also involved in over 600 reactions in the body making it an important mineral we need and often don’t get enough even if we’re eating a healthy diet.
Magnesium is one of the most common deficiencies. But when you begin taking it, you can appreciate one of its most well-known benefits: the calming effect it has on your body (a.k.a. helps you sleep)! It’s known to calm nerves and anxiety.
Magnesium is also great to take if you have muscle aches or spasms. It can help prevent headaches and helps with digestion. My favorite benefit and the reason I take magnesium most often is that it helps with insomnia and promotes sleep.
My husband loves taking New Chapter’s Magnesium + Ashwagandha Tablets to help him sleep better or to alleviate sore muscle after a tough workout. Plus, the ashwagandha in the magnesium is a much-appreciated bonus for added stress relief.
Zyflamend Whole Body
Noah isn’t getting any younger so it’s important that he supports his joints and reduces any pain he may have from working out. Zyflamend Whole Body uses a combination of ten herbs that have been used for thousands of years by millions of people to promote health and longevity.
Zyflamend is formulated for herbal pain relief and supports the body’s healthy response to inflammation, which is critical for joint comfort and movement. Plus, it has ginger added to aid specifically for discomfort due to exercise.
Your husband will thank you
Adding these four vitamins and supplements to your pantry is a simple way to help your husband get the nutrients he needs and boost his overall health. If your husband is reluctant to start taking vitamins, start with just one and slowly add more. Pretty soon he will see the benefits and it will become a habit he is grateful you helped him start.
