How many supplements do you really need? In my opinion, if I need to take ten or so supplements, then my diet really needs to be evaluated.

Vitamins: B, C, + E
CLA pills
Hydroxycut (containing ephedra and caffeine)
Apple Cider Vinegar pills
(TONS OF CHOCOLATE...KIDDING!) Mr. Goodbar, Butterfinger, chocolate chip cookies, etc...

That's a good point!

But is there any way of truly knowing?

I guess I take extra as sort of a insurance policy.

I agree, that's why I said protein through natural food sources. The supplements listed are contained in one vitamin. That's all I take and as I mentioned, I am getting ready to start creatine again.

I am currently using tons of MRP's based on a blend of proteins.

I am using creatine after each workout mixed with glutamine.

Multivitamin, antioxidants, and up to 3 grams of vitamin C per day.

This is my offseason...as I move into "contest" mode, my supplement list will get more extensive!

protein
creatine
B vitamins

What about that Horney Goat Weed Blu?


I am taking:
Whey Protein
Met-Rex (MRP)
Glucosamine HCL
Just bought some T2 from Biotest, but havent used it yet. Plan on starting when i get back from my vacation in Ohio.

Might want to add Glutamine & ZMA.

What is Vitamin Z?

I do take glutamine!!

I dunno, but I saw some people use it, but I might be mistaking it for Zinc which I currently supplement with.

Thanks

What about ALA or CLA?

ALA and CLA do have some good research behind them, but have not gotten rave reviews in the real world. ALA is usd by bodybuilders to increase glucose disposal into muscle, but is probably better used as an antioxidant. CLA may be useful for adding lean body mass over the long term, but at this time, I wouldn't bother with it.

Track what you eat? =p

i think that IRB hit on something,heres what i tell people to do when they ask "what do you take",i tell people to write down what they eat,the times they eat it,what their work schdule is,what they want to achieve in the gym and for themselves,cuz supps can run alot of cash if you start taking everything. the basics flax,whey,multis/ food/h20, and now after talking to GOPRO a mix of protiens

Diuretics don't burn fat!! They are for water loss. A lot of women have excess water gain which makes them feel bloated and their clothes fit tighter... I don't know! I saw it in a magazine...

Right now I am not taking anything except for a multivitamin and my depression medicine!!!!! Yippy! I am out of Hydroxycut, have been for a week or so and I feel like I am getting fat!!!!!!! I will prob. start something new without ephredrine in it. Every once in awhile I take a metaboshape (like xenadrine) for energy...
