================== ARTICLE START ==================

The muscles of the human body depend heavily on the vitamins,

minerals, and other nutrients we provide them for their health

and performance. By being sure to consume the standard

recommended daily intake levels of the nutrients our bodies

need, we can help to keep our muscles strong and healthy, able

to perform their important tasks.

Our muscles do far more than help us to look good and lift

things. The heart is the most important muscle of the human

body, as it runs the circulatory system. Our muscles help to

keep our internal organs in place and to perform each and every

movement we make, from chewing and swallowing to controlling our

bladder to sitting, standing and walking. Healthy muscles are

essential to our day-to-day lives. There are several vitamins

and minerals that directly affect the health and performance of

our muscles.

Potassium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus work together in

seeing to it that the muscles are able to contract smoothly and

effectively, as they should. This is, of course, essential to

keeping the heart beating in a regular and efficient fashion.

However, that is not the only place in the body that the

ability to contract is important. Each muscle needs this

ability.

Vitamin C is essential to the health and performance of muscles

because it works with potassium, magnesium, calcium and

phosphorus in their muscle regulation tasks. Vitamin C is also

necessary to the formation of collagen and elastin, which are

important connective tissues of the body, forming the structure

of muscles. Vitamin C also is responsible for the health of the

blood vessels, which support the muscles need for oxygen and

nutrients.

Naturally, as with most of the important processes and systems

of the body, the vitamins that make up the powerful and

essential Vitamin B complex have a role in the health and

function of the muscles. In fact, deficiencies in the B

vitamins can lead to all sorts of muscle problems, including a

lack of coordination. The B vitamins are greatly responsible

for the creation of the red blood cells that support the entire

body.

Nutrition is an essential part in seeing to it that the muscles

have what they need to function efficiently and to be strong.

Exercise is also an important part of muscle health and

strength, and should be a part of any health plan that is

seeking to increase the health, strength and endurance of the

muscles. However, before beginning any exercise program after a

period of inattention to physical activity, it is a good idea to

have a general physical and to increase your level of physical

activity gradually.

Sometimes, at the rapid pace of today’s life, it can be

difficult to obtain all of the vitamins, minerals and other

nutrients that the body and its muscles need through diet

alone. Nutritional supplements, when used with care and

attention to standard dosage practice, can be an effective and

reliable way to see to it that each and every day you are able

to meet the standard recommended daily intake levels of

nutrients you need for the health and well being of your body

and your mind.
