Fat does not turn into muscle, and muscle does not turn in to fat.

We say this over and over here, focus on your diet and training, worry about supplements later. If anything, get a protein powder, that's it.

Aso, GNC is quite expensive you should check some of the online stores:

Well, it would be good for him to get a good anti ox and multi vitamin. Maybe start a lower sugar formula creatine too. definatly protein powder for the convenience. And I would recommend some essential fatty acid suppliments (flax and omega3 fish oil) since it can be a guessing game if he is not into watching all the foods closely.

There are many supplements that we could recommend as being "essential" or important, but if your diet is crap why even bother?
I say focus on perfecting your diet & nutrition first, then worry about supplements later.
