Should I Take Vitamin Pills for Running Stamina?

Ans: Dear Aarti,

Thank you for your query. For increasing stamina, you don't need vitamin supplements, but rather a focus on strength, endurance, and protein. To improve stamina, it's important to engage in regular exercise, such as running, strength training, and cardio workouts. Additionally, a protein-rich diet is crucial as it helps with muscle recovery and growth.

Vitamins by themselves do not directly boost energy or stamina; instead, they support overall health. If you are following a balanced diet, you typically do not need extra vitamin supplements. However, if you have a specific deficiency, such as Vitamin D or B12, you can consider supplements after consulting a doctor.

For strength training and to ensure you’re doing the right exercises safely, it’s recommended to visit a physiotherapist. They can guide you through exercises tailored to your needs, helping you build strength and improve stamina effectively.
