Athletic Performance

from Jana Mitcham
July 23, 2003

Whether you are a professional athlete, in the little league, or a 3 day a week jogger: your athletic endeavors require nutritional support. Athletic performance makes certain physiological demands on your body: a) demands that require and drain energy b) demands that stress bones, muscles and joints c)demands that stress literally every organ and system of the body

That is why it is so critical to maintain daily nutritional support and "special" nutritional support for performance day.

Vitacorp has certain products to meet athletic needs. The following regimens are designed to enhance athletic performance and promote good health. Their primary purpose is to provide maximum hydration, sustained energy release. a good essential fatty acid source so that an athlete doesn't eat a "fatty diet" trying to build fat stores for that important energy release and to provide nutrients to protect the joints, bones, muscles and immune function.

To achieve your maximum potential:

• CHILDREN (ages 6-11)

  • Daily program when not engaged in athletics (physical activity):
    • Primalux ( 1 a day)
    • Omega III ( 1 a day)
