Supplements in elite sports. Recommendations from professional triathlete Samuel Hürzeler.

Supplements are widespread in sports and are used in both amateur and professional sports. Supplements are used to promote health by providing vital nutrients or to compensate for possible deficiencies. They also serve as a complement to macronutrients to meet needs even when daily food intake might be insufficient. Examples include protein shakes, gels, bars, and sports drinks. Others use supplements for direct performance enhancement, prevention of muscle soreness, faster recovery, or mood influence.

Tying shoes, lifting a box, or climbing stairs – usually no problem. Usually. Because when joints hurt, even such everyday movements become a challenge. The most common cause of persistent joint pain is wear and tear – also known as osteoarthritis. To counteract this, there are a number of vital nutrients that can promote healthy joint function. We show which ones these are. We also explain why a healthy diet alone is not always enough to be optimally supplied with all joint-supporting vital nutrients.
