Anterior Knee Pain

Author: Active-Support

A saying goes that anything in excess is bad. This could be the case of an anterior knee pain. Too much activity that causes extra strain on the kneecap could cause the front and center of the knee to hurt. Anterior knee pain can also be the result of arthritis or the dislocation or fracture of the kneecap.

Magnetic knee brace could be used to keep the bones in the knee joint well lined up. This will prevent friction that can worsen the pain. It is still best to visit a doctor and get the knee tested. An x-ray or MRI scan can help determine the cause of the knee pain.

Indoor or Outdoor Exercise?

Author: Active-Support

Different people enjoy different kinds of exercises. Some people enjoy the great outdoors. They schedule a weekend or two monthly to go hiking, rock climbing or rowing. They simply could not stand working out in an airconditioned gym. They prefer the feeling of freedom that comes with being outdoors.

Other people prefer the predictability and reliability of a good ol’ gym, or their own living room. They like being able to watch TV or read a book while sweating it out on a treadmill or stationary bike. They could also save time travelling elsewhere to achieve the same purpose. Whichever you prefer, the important thing is to keep your workout regular and enjoyable.

Muscle Renewal through Stem Cells

Author: Active-Support

Exercise and strenuous activity can cause damage to muscle fibers. Studies revealed that stem cells from the bone marrow can help in the renewal process. This is because stem cells have the ability to travel all over the body and lodge with organs that need them. The more the number of stem cells in the body, the faster will be the renewal process. This is what stem sport claims to be able to achieve.

StemSPORT™ consists of StemEnhance®, a patented botanical extract clinically shown to increase the number of circulating stem cells by an average of 25%; and StemFLO®, a powerful triple-action circulatory enhancer that also functions as an antioxidant and helps detoxify the body. Nutritional benefits indicated are:

StemEnhance and StemFlo are usually taken once daily for over-all renewal. When one is exercising, training or competing there are key times that the products should be taken to enhance recovery and renewal.

  • Repair of muscle tissue
  • Increased energy levels
  • Heightened mental clarity
  • Over-all feeling of well-being
