An Update on 7Systems

I have just finished my first month's supply of 7Systems endurance sport supplement.




As a triathlete and training for an Ironman I find I am hyper aware of my diet. It is not that I am some super aware person. I am not a super health freak. It is the fact that the intensity of the training forces you to be aware of your energy input and output.

With the increased effort and stress I put my body into with the bike rides, the running and the swimming, not to mention work, family, social obligations etc. I push my body pretty hard. I belief I have to be extra careful with my diet, not only to make sure I have enough gas to finish, I also need to fill up all the resources I am depleting in my system. I tax my body pretty hard. I need to make sure I keep my fridge full.

As I stated before what I liked about 7Systems was that it had everything I need in one container. Could you find all the ingredients elsewhere? Probably. However you would not find them at one store. You would have to spend allot of time researching the ingredients (trust me I have) You then need to figure out how much you need. As an athlete (that still sounds weird to me) You have extra needs. These needs are not normally added to the ingredients list on the vitamins and supplements you find at the grocery store. They are prepared, and marketed for the averages. I am not average. So how do I know I am taking the right amount?

One of the things I also like is not having to spend the time pulling out all my vitamins and supplements every day. Making sure I take them at the right time, etc. I mean that's no big deal. I do like the convenience of the "one package daily" that 7Systems offers.

I have been using them for 1 month. During this time I did get the flu (not the H1N1 ;')) and I found that I got over it faster than my friends and co-workers. I have noticed a few little things. That while I did get a sore throat the other day. It never got to the point that I needed to take anything for it.

I have made some other changes to my lifestyle recently including following the Thrive Diet so my body is going through some changes.

In a nut shell, I like 7Systems because of the ease of use. The fact that I trust I have all the right ingredients. It is more specific for the needs of someone who is pushing themselves hard physically. I also really like the company. I will update this as I continue my usage.
