I've suffered from
delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) all my life...especially after leg day.
About 4 years ago I saw a few articles on a new product called Nella that made big claims about how their product (a probiotic) would consume lactic acid in your body and increase energy levels, reduce DOMS, etc.
I've taken probiotics before and did not notice any benefits so I was skeptical, but I was reading the article the day after leg day and the DOMS was hitting me hard. So I bought 1 month worth to give it a try.
After just 3 days (1 pill a day), no more DOMS. I workout hard in the gym 5 days a week and have no DOMS at all. I am 56 years old.
I don't know that this product will do anything for you if you don't suffer from DOMS. But if you do, you should give it a try.
