Iron - the secret of your health and energy
Imagine your body as a factory working at full capacity, providing energy, growth, and cell repair, with iron as the fuel that keeps it running. If iron reserves are depleted, you immediately feel tired, weak, have heart palpitations, or paler skin. Other symptoms of iron deficiency include brittle nails, dry hair, shortness of breath, sleep problems, reduced concentration, cold extremities, increased susceptibility to infections, and anemia (a lack of red blood cells caused by too little iron in the body) manifesting as extreme fatigue. In anemia, the body is not adequately supplied with oxygen and tires quickly. A signal of iron deficiency may also be bruising, as this mineral plays an important role in the production of hemoglobin, which supports the proper function of platelets.
Magnesium - the most important mineral?
If you ask any athlete (especially endurance sports) what supplement they always have with them at competitions, the most common answer will be "magnesium". Magnesium is certainly one of the most important minerals for our body. It is a so-called "deficient" mineral because we lose it from our body through sweating during excessive exertion, but also when you don't exercise! Just living in noise, stress, exertion...
The First of Vitamins - B1
Maybe it's burnout ... that's the current description of the state when we feel different. When the coffee we loved no longer works and in the afternoon we are overwhelmed by unbearable fatigue, when in the evening we have no strength for anything, neither for sports nor for friends. And certainly not for another day at work. A nutritionist would describe this state with further findings of our diet with the words - „ You have a lack of thiamine (B1), which is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system and the conversion of food into energy. Your diet is full of processed carbohydrates, but almost without B1. And when the body doesn't have enough thiamine, you can feel fatigue, forgetfulness, irritability, and even anxiety. And caffeine? It depletes thiamine in the body even more!“ We certainly wouldn't think that this state could be caused by a “triviality”. After all, many of us don't register thiamine, I admit it was also my case. This first of the discovered vitamins in 1912 was named by the Polish biochemist Funk with the term vita (necessary for life), amine (substances that contain nitrogen). Since then, it has gained more names, like aneurin, and for 25 years we have called it thiamine. It is essential, meaning it cannot be synthesized and must come from the diet. It sounds almost frightening that without it we wouldn't survive longer than a few days, at most weeks. This is because the body cannot store it for long and it is necessary to ensure its intake regularly, as it is irreplaceable for the proper functioning of the organism. On the contrary, its abundance helps improve concentration and memory.
Is Collagen Only for Older People?
Collagen is essentially a protein that the human body can produce by itself, as it is necessary for the proper functioning of cartilage, glands, joints, and even bones, muscles, and skin. Out of all the proteins in our body, collagen is the most abundant (up to 30%). Unless you are addicted to social media, you really don't need collagen until you suddenly start feeling pain in your tendons, knees, ligaments... Because if you have a proper, balanced diet, and enough exercise, your body should produce enough. However...
