Micronutrients for athletes - support from training to regeneration
Sport
High-quality micronutrients to meet increased needs in sports, from training to regeneration.
Why are micronutrients needed in sport?
To achieve top athletic performance, you need a well-functioning metabolism that can also recover well. A diet that provides sufficient energy, micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, trace elements) as well as amino acids and fatty acids plays a key role here. An optimal supply of the right micronutrients is important for:
- compensating for the increased requirements associated with elevated metabolism
- covering increased loss of micronutrients through sweat, urine and stool
supporting muscle function, energy balance and optimal regeneration
Our product recommendations for your active life
Burgerstein Vitamine offers high-quality nutritional supplements to meet the increased needs associated with sport in order to help you and your body to achieve your sporting goals – regardless of whether you are active in professional or recreational sport.
Burgerstein Sport
Burgerstein Sport is the ideal companion for your active life and your athletic challenges.
This basic multivitamin and mineral preparation provides your body with all the important vitamins and a tailored selection of minerals and trace elements:
- Basic preparation containing vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants from berries
- Developed together with experts from sports nutrition and sports medicine
- Supplements the daily diet and supports compensation for the increased nutritional needs associated with sport

Burgerstein Collagen
Collagen is the body’s most important structural protein. It is found, for example, in joints, tendons, ligaments and skin. However, the body’s own collagen production decreases from as early as your mid-20s. Burgerstein Collagen is versatile and, thanks to its high quality, allows a low daily dosage.
- 100% pure bioactive collagen peptides
- Neutral taste: can be added to any drink, muesli, yoghurt or smoothie without altering the taste
- Easy to use: about 1 heaped teaspoon per day
- No additives: no artificial colours or preservatives, no sugar or other sweeteners, and gluten- and lactose-free
Burgerstein Probase-Tablets
Burgerstein Probase tablets contain a balanced combination of minerals (calcium, magnesium, potassium) and trace elements (zinc, manganese) in a modern tablet formulation. The zinc they contain contributes to normal acid-base metabolism. Because of their composition, Burgerstein Probase tablets are also ideally suited as a mineral preparation, e.g. for athletes.
Burgerstein ProCollagen
Burgerstein ProCollagen contains eggshell membrane, manganese and vitamin C. The eggshell membrane consists of collagen, elastin, glucosamine and hyaluronic acid, amongst other things. These natural structural building blocks can also be found in the human body.
- High-quality eggshell membrane combined with vitamin C and manganese
- Support for collagen metabolism1,2
- 2 capsules per day
- Vegetarian source of collagen
1 Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen production for normal skin and bone function and for normal cartilage function.
2 Manganese contributes to normal connective tissue production.
In addition to the products listed here, Burgerstein Aminovital, which supports training and recovery, and Burgerstein MagnesiumVital direct, which supports muscle metabolism1 and normal muscle function1, are also among the tried-and-tested sports classics.
