From the classic vitamin C pill to anti-aging marine collagen, the French are becoming more and more tempted by nutritional supplements. Reserved time for top athletes, now everyone is concerned. It starts with a Sunday football player like David, 30, who has been making curious concoctions in his kitchen for a year now.
“It’s very simple, two portions of the powder, add water and go”, it starts the TF1 video at 20:00 at the top of this article. This real estate professional repeats this protein and amino acid ritual before every workout. According to him, it is on the field that everything is decided by a drink. “This is not a magic wand, on the other hand, it is true that it helps a lot. You have to have a very good diet, a very good lifestyle, in order to stay in a very good condition, but it is true that these foods provide a small boost.”He believes that the.
Whole shelves
To get his nutritional supplements, David buys groceries every month from a specialty store. Once intended for top athletes, these products now appeal to a much wider audience. “Most men want to develop large pecs, powerful arms and a strong back. Women, we will have more lower body, curve of the hips and buttocks, “ explains Kalel, manager of the Vitamin Shop.
Food supplements are also on display in supermarkets and pharmacies, with entire shelves dedicated to them. “In fact, dietary supplements combine a whole section of pharmacy. This is the name itself. Everything for stress, for sleep, immunity, alertness, mobility, so everything for the joints “says Segolene Panaget, a pharmacist from Marseille.
What are the risks?
If they are available for all needs and in all forms, it is because many of us consume them, which, in particular, is facilitated by numerous advertising on television and on social networks. In the video, influencers praise the virtues of the brands they often partner with. But is it dangerous to consume these nutritional supplements without a prescription or professional advice?
To get to the bottom of this, a TF1 newscast asked Cecile Capdeville, a sports nutritionist, a question. “You can still be deficient, so taking vitamin or mineral supplements is good for the body, in my opinion, whether you exercise or not. On the other hand, you can tire the kidneys by introducing additional proteins that must be excreted by the kidneys.she warns.
