Athletic Performance Protocol

FOUNDATION FOR EVERY ATHLETE



MULTIPLE VITAMIN-MINERAL

• MULTI-NUTRIENTS WITH IRON (MUL28)
Take a total of 3-4 capsules daily in divided dose, with meals.

• Other multiples might include Multi-Nutrients without iron (MUL27), Maxxum #3(MAXX3) and
Vita-Big-Kids, for kids age 12 and under (VIT19)

COD LIVER OIL: Take ½ to 1 Tablespoon daily.

• Carlson’s (CODL3) and Arctic –D (ARC25) both have Vitamin D added (for low light times of the year).

• Nordic Naturals, orange (ARCT6) & peach (ARCT7) have minimal Vitamin D (for summertime dosing)



PRE-EXERCISE PROTOCOL

ELECTROLYTE/ENERGY FORMULA (ELE18): Use 1-2 scoops (for magnesium & electrolytes)
This prevents muscle cramps/twitches, especially if there is increased perspiration.



POST-EXERCISE PROTOCOL

L-GLUTAMINE (GLU51): Use 5 grams of powder in some food or liquid
This protein is best taken away from meals and helps recover essential tissue.

BROMELAIN (BROM8) or WOBENZYM (WOBEN)
To help resolve inflammation, these proteolytic enzymes are taken away from food.

Bromelain: 2 capsules, 2/3x/day
Wobenzym: 3-5 tablets, 2-4x/day

HYDROXYLACTALBUMIN PROTEIN POWDER (HYDR7)
Pure, “pre-digested” protein.
