VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIA PUDDING
Consuming the appropriate balance of nutrients each day is no easy task! Sometimes, the food we consume — no matter how healthy — just doesn’t give us enough. If you’re a man, consider adding these valuable supplements to your diet to limit that gap. Note: Supplements are not overnight wonders, nor should they be taken when you do consume enough nutrients through your diet. Dr. Sladic can help you determine if supplements are the right option for your diet, so please call him today at 1-877-861- 5927 for a health consultation. Fuel your body with these four nutrients. For men, taking the right supplements boils down to their risk factors. For instance, magnesium can aid in muscle and bone health, which can be useful for men who are losing muscle mass. (This is common for men after age 30.) Creatine can also help men build muscle mass, and it’s actually one of the most studied supplements on the market! Similarly, fish oil can aid in protecting the heart, and magnesium can help with this, too! Another supplement combination to try are electrolytes , which are a mixture of sodium, calcium, and potassium. These can boost hydration, which is essential to health, and may have some heart and muscle health benefits. Avoid this supplement. Iron is a great source for hormone regulation and energy, but it’s not something men are deficient in (commonly). The human body was designed to produce enough iron, but because iron is stored in your blood, women are more likely to have less iron in their system than men, due to menstruation. In fact, men are more likely than women to have too much iron, a condition called hemochromatosis! Men don’t need iron supplements, unless a trusted medical professional advises them otherwise. ( Note: If you have hemochromatosis, your blood is incredibly valuable! Consider donating if you feel comfortable doing so.) Dr. Sladic can help you determine your supplement needs. Call 1-877-861-5927 for a consultation, or if you know what you need, please call 248-912-2962. SUPPLEMENTING MEN’S HEALTH 4 Nutrients All Men Need and One to Avoid
