Our Best Supplements For Muscle Pain
Muscle pain can interfere with your mobility and ability to carry out daily tasks. Muscle usually is about 45% of a man’s weight and 35% of a woman’s weight. Muscle is a large part of you! So, whether you want to ease post-workout recovery or you’re experiencing muscle pain as a result of medications like statins, you may want to consider these natural supplements.
TART CHERRY EXTRACT
Our Tart Cherry Extract is a great supplement that works in much the same way as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAID) on COX-2 enzymes along the inflammatory pathway, without the harsh side effects.
Tart cherries are also rich in anthocyanins and flavonoids that act as antioxidants and promote muscle recovery. They downregulate the activity of the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (Nf-kB) as well. (Nf-kB is a strong inducer of inflammation. Its downregulation is important to control chronic inflammation and oxidative stress.)
So, taking our Tart Cherry Extract consistently, can help you feel better, sooner after workouts.
DELTA-8 CREAM
Well Theory’s Delta-8 Cream contains Delta-8 THC, one of the cannabinoids found in the hemp plant. It’s a natural anti-inflammatory that works along the body’s inflammatory pathways to reduce pain.
Our Delta-8 Cream also contains menthol and arnica, along with essential oils and other ingredients that nourish the skin.
Menthol helps cool the affected area, leading to a reduction in muscle pain almost immediately after applying. This is great for post-workout recovery, so you can soothe aching muscles and continue with your day.
Arnica has been used for centuries to reduce muscle and joint pain by lowering inflammation. It can also reduce the appearance of bruises and a variety of other concerns.
This Delta-8 Cream is a great topical solution to reduce pain quickly to specific areas of the body.
ESSENTIAL JOINT & TISSUE SUPPORT: DAILY MULTI WITH PEA
Our Daily Multi with PEA is a great way to improve your foundational health on a regular basis, while reducing your recovery time.
This multi contains inflammation-fighting ingredients like palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), along with essential nutrients like magnesium oxide, zinc, calcium, and vitamins D3 and C.
Magnesium helps optimize muscle and nerve function, meaning magnesium can relieve muscle cramps and pain.
While you’re recovering, you’ll want supplements that can help with tissue repair. That’s where vitamin C comes in. Vitamin C is essential for tissue healing, so you’ll want it in your routine.
COQ10 PLUS GUMMIES
Our CoQ10 Plus Gummies contain Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), tart cherry extract, and chaga mushrooms.
As we mentioned previously, tart cherries relieve pain and contain anthocyanins to promote muscle recovery.
The Chaga mushrooms in these gummies provide antioxidants and inflammation relief. They can also reduce blood pressure and blood sugar.
CoQ10 is an antioxidant naturally found in your mitochondria, although it decreases as you get older. That’s why supplementing with it is so important! Supplementing your CoQ10 can promote cell health and reduce risk of free radical damage.
These gummies are great for post-activity recovery and can relieve muscle pain from taking statins. This includes any cramping, fatigue, or other aches and pains you may experience on statins.
