Sports Performance & Recovery

Recovery is made of sleep, food and fluid. Supplements sit at the margins of that, and the honest ones say so.

What actually helps
  • Replacing fluid and salts after long or hot sessions.
  • Enough protein spread through the day, and enough total food for the work being done.
  • Sleep, which is where adaptation actually happens.
  • Checking iron if endurance has dropped off without explanation, particularly in women.
