The “Anabolic Mineral” That Bodybuilders Keep Ignoring | Straight Facts by Jerry Brainum
When it comes to vitamins and minerals talk - people often get bored.
They think these are the useless nutrition facts that have no real deep
effect on exercise, training, and athletic growth. But that couldn't be
further from the truth. Sure, these nutrition facts might not be the
most exciting details. It's not "The SECRET to the perfect physique"
like so many headlines try to spread to get big clicks. But the truth is
the human body is like a machine and even the smallest components are
important if you want to be at peak performance. Especially if you are a
bodybuilder - where physique perfection is the ultimate goal.
So you should pay close attention when Jerry Brainum explains how zinc
is actually a very important mineral. A kind of mineral that, in a
sense, has anabolic attributes that can have huge benefits in the long
run. Learn everything you need to know in our Straight Facts above.
Have you been ripped off by supplement makers whose products don’t
work as advertised? Want to know the truth about them? Check out Jerry Brainum's book Natural Anabolics, available at JerryBrainum.com.
