How many of yous guys take supplements? And by supps, I mean vitamins and minerals, not workout stuff. Question 2 would be, do you take them regularly and do you feel different if you do/dont take them?

Nobody takes vitamins? what da fug.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Nope. They dont do much unless you already have a deficiency.... most people piss out a majority of the stuff in them as excess vitamins/minerals.

 

[Boostie]

I take Animal Pak for the most part daily. Only thing I really notice is highlighter yellow pee lol I feel like it seems to help but I am sure its a mental thing.

Thats the vitamins you are pissing out

 

[Spivitz]

I've taken a multi vitamin, C and Omega 3 fish oil for years.
I also take turmeric powder mixed with juice in the morning.

Most are junk. Only certain forms are bioavailable, meaning your body will actually absorb them. Those forms are more expensive to produce and dose in the proper amounts that don’t result in you paying $5+ a day for vitamins. Eat a varied diet and you’ll get everything you need.

I take a multi before work, and then a potassium glutinate later in the day so my heart doesn't 'splode from all the caffiene.

I need to take the potassium to calm down afib, and it does help.

Magnesium should help as well.

I take a multivitamin every morning. Why? Why not?

Was in the ER a few years back and they shoved a bunch of potassium down my throat when I had real bad STC's and tackacardia (sp?). I was almost unconsious when they brought me in, and an hour later it was like nothing happened. On meds now for it, but it was likely due to long term mold exposure at home and at my employer. I looked like walking death. We moved and I moved on from that job...6 months later I gained all my weight back and stopped having symptoms.

Figured it wouldn't hurt, so I do a banana every morning and a potassium half way through the day. Side benefit is it made my tinnitus all but disappear.

I have to intake extra potassium every day as well to keep arrhythmias and muscle issues under control. Lots of potatoes, bananas, and yogurt.

Only thing I take is Vitamin C, Omega 3 and 6. I take the C because we don't drink O-jay because of the sugar and I'm also not a fan of just eating a orange. The Omega's because I rarely eat fish. I LOVE fish! But the wife doesn't eat fish. Other than that, we have a pretty solid diet.

 

[Jesse]

I take fish oil and vitamin D on a regular basis and different supplements dependant on the need. These are usually multivitamins I buy from Canadian Pharmacy. But to know better what needs your organism it's better to make tests and what deficiency you have.

[Pro Stock John]

Bump. What are the weight lifters taking?

I'm taking MSM and getting back on fish oil.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

Supplements are a waste of money outside of these things:
QUALITY multi vitamin
Fish oil
Creatine
Protein
Caffeine

The end

 

[Jimy Bilmo]

Agree with the above.

Protein
Creatine
Coffee
Multi-vitamin
...and I do take additional vitamin c and d

No fish oil for me, I eat it a 2-4x a week, so don't worry too much about that.

Sticking to the 1g protein for 1lbs body weight?

 

[SHARKBITEATTACK]

Im always experimenting with lots of things but haven’t really noticed the effects of anything outside of caffeine. Only other thing I’ve noticed effects from is valerian root. I tend to get overwhelmed when I have a lot of stuff on my plate and when I take a 300-500 mg valerian root capsule before bed I wake up feeling a lot more refreshed and ready to take on the days challenges.

Also try to take multivitamins and fish oil just because…
