Supplements for an Active Body on a Shoestring

By Emily Light, CP Staff

Hyland’s Arnica Montana
Arnica is a homeopathic remedy indicated for muscle soreness, swelling, inflammation, and bruising. It’s the perfect supplement for the aches and pains typically caused by overexertion. Homeopathic remedies are ideal for people who take prescription medications, as there are no contraindications or interactions to worry about.

Alacer Emergen-C
Electrolytes maintain optimal hydration and blood pH and are critical for proper nerve and muscle function. In addition to electrolyte minerals, Emergen-C contains antioxidants and B vitamins. Add a packet of your favorite flavor to water and consume during and after physical activity to keep energy levels up and prevent dehydration.

NOW Omega-3 Fish Oil
A great way to support an active body is with a preventative approach using daily supplements. Fish oil contains omega-3 fat that gives the body raw materials to make its own anti- inflammatory prostaglandins. When stress or injury affects the body’s tissues, omega-3s help control the inflammation that sets in during the healing process, thus reducing pain and stiffness.
