You can also support your resistance with the right nutritional supplements. The five most important vitamins that support your resistance are vitamin C, D, A, B6 and E. See our suggestions below so that you stay fit and can get through the winter strong.

226ERS Vegan Vitamin+

Choose a multivitamin as a basis. An active lifestyle increases our natural need for vitamins and minerals. That is why supplementing with a basic supplement is useful for all athletes. The Vegan Vitamin+ from 226ERS contains all the necessary vitamins and minerals with the added bonus of Q10 and organic silicon from bamboo.

Details per daily dose:

Vitamin C (500mg): It is a powerful antioxidant with multiple anti-inflammatory, immunological and antihistamine functions.
Vitamin E (40 mg): with antioxidant properties, it is beneficial for the circulatory system
Vitamin B12 (1.4 mg): helps with the development of the nervous system. And is involved in the protein metabolism of carbohydrates and fats.
Iron (14 mg): it is essential because its main function is to produce hemoglobin, which is essential for cellular oxygenations
Magnesium (200 mg): prevents muscle damage and joint injuries. It reduces the feeling of fatigue and improves the absorption of other vitamins and minerals.
Organic silicon (25 mg) extracted from the bamboo dry extract: it is an essential mineral for the body. Its main function is to help produce collagen, which is essential for the formation of bones, cartilage, tendons and muscles, making all tissues elastic. It is an antioxidant and is involved in the processes of joint pain and inflammation.
Coenzyme Q10: is a molecule that our body produces naturally until we reach the age of about 40. It helps convert nutrients into energy and has numerous benefits, such as strengthening the immune system, reducing fatigue and slowing the aging process reduces oxidative stress in cells.

226ERS Vitamin D3

Vitamin D is essential for the proper functioning of the immune system, bones and muscles, while protecting our cells against oxidative stress. Vitamin D3 from 226ERS contains no gluten or added sugars and each pearl provides 100 µg of vitamin D, which is equivalent to 4000 UI.

Limited exposure to sunlight causes vitamin D deficiency. As we age, we lose our ability to synthesize it, requiring larger amounts. This negatively affects our physical and mental health and causes stress, anxiety, mood swings and even depression. To prevent vitamin D levels from falling below optimal limits, it is highly advisable to take a supplement for the proper functioning of our body.
