What Really Matters: Why Micronutrients Deserve More Attention
Everyone talks about calories, protein, carbs, fats…
But micronutrients – vitamins, minerals, trace elements – are the real drivers of performance, energy, and long-term health.
They don't give you calories. But they give your body the tools it needs to function at a high level.
🧠 Why you should care about micronutrients:
-
They regulate your hormones
-
They boost your immune system
-
They affect energy, mood, sleep, skin, and muscle recovery
-
And… deficiencies can slow you down more than a bad workout or bad diet
🥬 Most common deficiencies today:
-
magnesium
-
Vitamin D
-
Iron
-
B12
-
Omega-3 fatty acids
Even active people struggle with them – especially with lots of stress or vegan/vegetarian diets.
PulseCore Tip:
Focus on quality over quantity :
-
Eat the rainbow (different colors = different nutrients)
-
Rotate your food choices weekly
-
Don't fear supplementation - but use it wisely
Your macros build the body.
Your microphones keep it running.
