Vitamins and minerals

Minerals, vitamins and dietary supplements play a key role in supporting the performance and overall health of outdoor athletes. Here are some key minerals and vitamins and their benefits for outdoor athletes:

  • Vitamin C: Outdoor athletes are often exposed to environmental stressors such as sunlight and pollution, which can increase the body's production of free radicals. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralize these harmful free radicals and supports immune function. Supplementing with vitamin C can help strengthen the immune system and reduce the risk of diseases that can hinder performance in nature.
  • Zinc: Zinc is essential for immune system function, protein synthesis and wound healing. Outdoor athletes may experience increased susceptibility to infections and slower recovery from injuries due to intense physical activity. Zinc supplementation can help support the health of the immune system, aid in tissue repair and improve regeneration.
  • Vitamin D: Outdoor athletes often get prolonged exposure to sunlight, which is the primary source of vitamin D. However, supplementing with vitamin D can help support bone health, immune system function, and overall performance.
  • Calcium: Calcium is essential for strong bones and muscles, so it is important for cyclists who are at risk of stress fractures and muscle injuries. Adequate calcium intake can help promote bone density and reduce the risk of fractures.
  • Magnesium: Magnesium is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body, including energy production and muscle function. Magnesium supplementation can help prevent muscle cramps, promote muscle recovery and overall energy production.
It is important to note that individual needs and requirements may vary. We recommend consulting the use of vitamins with a healthcare professional or sports nutrition expert.
