Other Necessary Supplements :
A discussion regarding
supplementation for bodybuilders would not be complete without
discussing the importance of vitamin A, vitamin E, and vitamin D.
Vitamin
A: This vitamin is essential to bodybuilders because it helps to
produce glycogen (for energy) and aids protein synthesis (for muscle
growth). Moreover, studies have shown that absorption of vitamin A is
partially blocked during intensive bouts of exercise and more rapidly
depleted while on a low fat diet.
Vitamin E: This vitamin protects the health of cell membranes, which is essential for muscle growth.
Vitamin
D: This vitamin enables the body to absorb its calcium intake. Proper
muscle contraction (as needed by bodybuilders) relies on proper levels
of calcium. The most well-known benefit of calcium, however, is its role
in strengthening bones. Building strong bones is particularly important
for bodybuilders since as their musculature increases, so does the
weight that is placed upon their bones.
