Best Supplements for Muscle Recovery
Athletes and fitness enthusiasts who train 3+ times per week and experience persistent muscle soreness or slow recovery. Active adults over 40 whose muscle recovery has become noticeably slower with age. People who experience regular muscle cramps during or after exercise — a classic indicator of low magnesium status. Endurance athletes (runners, cyclists) who lose significant magnesium through sweat and may not replenish through diet alone. Anyone on a calorie-restricted diet who may have marginal magnesium intake from food. Gym-goers supplementing with protein and creatine who overlook electrolyte and mineral status.
