Athlete Health Sampler Healthy Gift Basket
Anyone who works out hard knows that sore muscles can often result. The healthful fats in nuts and flaxseed fight inflammation and muscle soreness--they're also good for your heart and may even boost immunity! Foods with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties such as almonds, spinach, cherries, and pineapples, are great for helping injured athletes ease pain or recover from post-workout soreness. We've included a nut mix, dried cherries, dried pineapples, and a delicious nut butter that's great on bread, crackers, and fruit and a knockout in smoothies. Zoe flaxseed bars aren't just yummy--in addition to fighting inflammation and muscle soreness, flax contains alpha-linolenic acid which may possibly boost endurance!
Your favorite athlete will love to know that combining honey with a protein supplement may boost post-workout recuperation and favor better blood sugar maintenance after exercise. Honey can also be an effective pre-workout energy source that does not induce hypoglycemia and can improve endurance exercise capacity. They'll love the fruit flavored honey sticks drizzled on oatmeal, in tea, on fruit, or as a sweet treat on its own.
Our favorite product for athletes is Vita Coco coconut water. This natural rehydrant contains the potassium of two bananas as well as a host of other electrolytes that'll knock the sneakers off of those artificial sports drinks.
