"Dear Sirs!

I´m a passionate sportsman and nutrition scientist. I train 4 times a week in the gym followed nearly always by DOMS. Then I found the article from Miller: "The effects of protease supplementation on skeletal muscle function and DOMS following downhill running".
The supplement was delivered by your company. Please let me know more about this topic and products you may have to reduce the DOMS.
Regards
Wolfgang Goldenitsch, Dr.

"The enzyme product used in the study on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) is Mega-Zyme. To use it the same way it was used in the study, Mega-Zyme should be taken on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before a meal). Other useful products would be Eskimo-3, CoQ10, or Flexagility MAX."

If you haven’t heard of Arnica montana, you don’t have to look on a map. That’s because Arnica montana has historically been used for sore muscles, pain, swelling, stiffness, and more.
The electrolytes in sports drinks are great for hydration, but beware of hidden sugar. It’s hot. Maybe you’re working outside or on the treadmill creeping into mile 6. You need to stay hydrated. What should you reach for? An electrolyte packed sports drink? That new age energy drink? What about our good friend water? The debate continues.
Even if it’s just working around the house, we all overdo it sometimes. But relief of pain from occasional overuse is available with dietary supplements.
