plus a good multi....but thats nto a supplement, you shoudl always take vitamins

According to a few studies there's no need for vitamin pills - in fact they can be counterproductive in some cases.

I used to take mineral and vitamin supplements , now I try to eat more fruits and veggies - feeling better that way.

They can be beneficial during a strict diet or when taken accordingly to your needs but most of these A-Z 100% supps are useless.

I still take about 1000mg of vit c and heaps of fish oil..

Ontopic : My vote goes to protein powder of course.

your probably correct.......a multivitamin is cheap, so its no sweat off my balls to buy centrum or whatever....i like to err on the side of cution

perhaps there is something in those pills, a clacium, zinc, or iron that will contribute to my overall well being.............but of course most of it is pissed out

so you are basically pissing out money, and you can tell because after you take a vitamin your urine is flourescent yellow

something about whole food, the nutrients are more bioavailable, then the same nutrients in pill form

you should ONLY be using ONE supplement,,,,,a good protein powder

anything else is a waste of money, and your a retard if you think otherwise



plus a good multi....but thats nto a supplement, you shoudl always take vitamins

I don't know if I agree with that. Anator P70 by Muscle Tech is pretty good stuff. Look how big Jay Cutler got while taking it. I mean, he's all natural. Muscle Tech products made him look like that.

Creatine, glutamine, whey protien, ephedrine, hmb,? What would you use if you could only pick one? I would have to go with good old whey protien.

  Vitamin C. Nothing offers so many benefits itself. It is anti-catabolic, anti-stress, anti-ageing, improves the absorption of the B vitamins, Iron, Calcium, increases insulin sensitivity, enhances the immune function. Go see the work of Nobelist Linus Pauling on the many benefits of vitamin C.

Some solid MRP. Nothing fancy, just powered oatmeal, soy protein, and maybe a bit of maltodextrin. Creatine is also good, i felt stronger when taking it. Maybe just placebo. With glutamine i was less tired at the end of the workouts.  It could be also placebo. Nowdays i only take c vitamin and soy protein. But maybe they're placebos too... The best suplement: go to bed at 10 pm. Never tried it, but sounds relaxing.
