We men (and I mean that in general terms) have needs that cannot be compromised.  We want to feel needed, that we are the protector of the home and family, and that we are the provider. These needs are instinctual and are present in each of us.  We also need to feel like a man, which means that we seem to have an affinity for such things as fighting, or watching the UFC. Watching these athletes on TV often causes us look at ourselves and feel the urge to improve our muscular appearance and strength.

As we get older, the ability to maintain our muscular physical attributes becomes a lot harder to maintain, and we may need to supplement the areas of our body that aren’t producing like they did when we were 25, young, hungry and fearless.  Below are some nutritional supplements that may assist the hunter in all of us men in order to sustain our physical prowess:

1.  A complete men’s multivitamin that assists in the maintenance of our daily vitamin needs, and also has a kicker ingredient that assists in increasing our libido.
2. An adrenal gland supplement that assists in increasing endurance, stamina and overall energy levels by helping to stabilize the hormonal gland. It also ensures that digested food does not all collect in one part of the body.
3. I don’t like being sick, and I don’t accept it as a bout with nature, therefore I take echinacea, which boosts my immune system and keeps me functioning at a high level and out of the sick day blues.
4. I am 37 years of age, and doing some tasks now causes me to have some tender moments of pain with my knees, elbows, back and wrists. Now I take a daily joint pain reliever, which is also fortified with vitamins and minerals which assist in the prevention of such pain or soreness later.

Taking these supplements throughout the day keeps me younger-feeling and energetic – which also works out well for when I get home to my wife. One of the things I hated, before taking supplements, was the fact that I would go to work then come home and feel utterly exhausted. I had little mental energy left to even be

able to interact with my wife, which would put a strain on our relationship. Since the realization that I was most likely deficient in basic nutrients and discovering that the exhaustion doesn’t HAVE to be the norm, I can now easily take some supplements and feel healthier and more alert – which, coincidentally, has also improved the health of my marriage.
