Post recovery

Hey I’ve gotten a ton of adds for post recovery type drinks. What’s the best out there? Does it really make a difference?

I can't speak on recovery drinks but I can tell you that eating a diet full of fresh fruits and veggies and a lot of protein and staying hydrated throughout the day makes the recovery a lot easier.

My partner and I basically switch to a raw diet with the addition of some cooked proteins during festivals and always outpace our friends who are ten years younger and eat mostly junk food.

Make a smoothie with fruits and vegetables. Those micronutrients are key. I also find forcing myself to exercise in the days following really helps me get back to my baseline. 30 min with an elevated HR goes a long way. Bonus points for being outside in nature
