How Supplements Can Support All Types of Adventure Lifestyles

We’re willing to bet the house that “health supplements” aren’t on your gear list for any hike, century ride, or ski trip (or any trip for that matter).

But here’s a great reason why they should be: Depending on what you like to do, there’s a supplement out there that, like a piece of gear, can support your adventure. For example, if you want to cycle for miles upon miles, then a lung supplement can help bolster your endurance. If you’re a regular weekend hiker, then there’s a pill to relieve all the stress your shoulder and knee joints likely endure.

For this, we take a close look at five different U.S. Doctors’ Clinical products. They formulate their line of health-focused supplements with the help of their extensive advisory board, which is comprised of top physicians and healthcare practitioners. Their supplements are made from the highest-quality ingredients and are produced in an FDA-registered facility.

Whenever you see their seal, you know you’re buying premium. Here’s a breakdown of five of their supplements that anyone can benefit from taking.

Best for People With Aching Joints

No matter how fit you are, years’ worth of activities like lifting, cycling, and hiking will take a toll on your body. In 2019, 54 million Americans reported suffering from arthritis—caused by inflamed joints.

Even if you’re feeling a twinge, taking a daily pill like Arthro-7, which contains joint-friendly ingredients such as collagen, turmeric, and bromelain can help nourish and protect your joints from undue stress. You should feel the results two weeks after taking it.

Best for Endurance Junkies

If marathons and long bike rides are your poison, then be aware that your lung capacity begins to drop as young as 35 years old. If your lungs are weakening, you’ll cough and be short of breath more often. This can really put a damper on your run.

A pill like Lung Support offers a nutrient-rich formula that contains vitamins A and C to bolster your immune system, Chinese and western herbs to support healthy respiration, and Asian ginseng for lung function. You’ll breathe easier as a 2013 double-blind study found a reduction in chronic cough after 12 weeks of taking this supplement.

Best for the Fierce Competitor

If a family-friendly game of corn hole raises your blood pressure a bit, then you may want to consider taking a circulatory drug such as HyperBalance. It contains a series of natural ingredients—such as Rauwolfia and tree bark—that help to counteract the artery-constricting effects of raised blood pressure by reducing the stress of your arteries and veins.

Best for the Road-Tripper

Nothing can disrupt a road trip like the constant need to hit the head. According to the Urology Care Foundation, 30% of men have an overactive bladder, which can result in frequent urination (peeing more than eight times in 24 hours).

While you should always consult a doctor if you think you have an issue, a supplement like Prostata can help. Its prostate support complex contains ingredients such as stinging nettle, amino acids, lycopene, and saw palmetto to help provide relief from too many bathroom trips.

Best for the Young at Heart

CoQ10 is a coenzyme that has two essential jobs: to produce energy in every cell of your body and to help protect your cells from damage against oxidative stress, which can cause you to physically age more quickly. Your body produces CoQ10 naturally but in minimal amounts. So taking an extra dose can help boost its cell-healing benefits to help you look and feel young.
