Top 4 Herbs for Athletic Performance

-

 

Although herbs are generally thought of as delicate and fragrant, don't underestimate their power to boost your athletic performance. Instead of turning to heavily processed "muscle-building" shakes or artificially sweetened sports drinks, which are ultimately detrimental to your abilities, look for these herbs that have been promoting a stronger physique for centuries.

You will be at your maximum potential for strength, stamina and alertness with these four herbs. Whether supplemented, sprinkled on your food, or sipped in tea, you will see a difference.




1.    Maca (Lepidium meyenii)

Loved by bodybuilders and athletes, maca helps increase stamina and enhance concentration, improve strength,.

Its hormone-regulating properties also help restore testosterone levels, which are typically depleted after a workout, but are essential for proper muscle growth. In addition, maca contains both complex carbohydrates and protein, so it is great for providing essential macronutrients needed to support said growth.

2.  Cat's Claw (Uncaria tomentosa)

Cat's claw is one of the most effective anti-inflammatory herbs currently being studied, due to its impressive content of flavonoids, tannins, and a unique compound known as pentacyclic oxindole alkaloids, or POA. It is said to be one of the most powerful herbal anti-inflammatory substances discovered to date.

The anti-inflammatory skills of POA can help athletes reduce their recovery time between each training session, especially after high-intensity or interval training. Additionally, they may prove beneficial for people who want to stay active in their 60s and beyond, as consuming cat's claw will also support healthy joints and prevent arthritis.

3.    Ginseng (Panax Ginseng)

Not to be confused with American or Siberian ginseng, Panax ginseng or Chinese ginseng is all you need for excellent athletic performance. The main active ingredient in ginseng are ginsenosides, and they have been found to fight anxiety and fatigue as well as increase stamina, allowing for continued physical activity.

Likewise, they can also act as brain-boosters, thus improving your reflexes and reaction time. It is a great alternative to caffeine to have an adequate energy level.

 

4.    Guarana (Poulinea cupana)

Guarana exerts a stimulating effect in the human body, promoting physical stamina and alertness. It also helps in reducing pain and increasing the metabolic rate, thus reducing appetite and contributing to weight management.

The main active compound in guarana is guaranine, which is chemically similar to caffeine. Guaranine not only has the ability to slow the onset of fatigue symptoms, but also increases resistance to pain.

Whether you play sports, lift weights, run a marathon, or cycle around the park, these herbs are worth adding to your routine for endurance and athletic performance. They are becoming increasingly popular as scientific research confirms what has been known about them since ancient times. So, don't hesitate anymore! Rely on herbs to boost your athletic performance. They will not leave you disappointed.
