- Micronized Creatine - 5g

- Fish Oil - 2 gelcaps (600mg Omega 3)

- Alpha Jym - 3 caplets (testosterone booster)

- Vitamin D - 500mg (due to deficiency, not fitness)

    Platinum: Fish oil, 800epa/dha
    Now: Gingko Biloba for brain health (can't hurt)
    Probiotics: 10billion

    BioSalts 12: for muscle soreness. Homeopathic
    Concentrace: for trace minerals (use occasionally/once a month)
    Dong Quai for hormone control (super helps with cravings without the jitters)

    Plus doctor-prescribed iron for anemia

    I'm not allowed to take any vitamins or minerals or anything like that because of a medical condition... but since youse included protein powder, I guess I'll include my protein bars. I'm currently using diet PHD (about 170-180 calories, 25g of protein) but I'm probably switching to Quest soon because of the fibre (I don't get enought fibre and Diet PHD only has like 1g a bar).

    I take Vitamin D for my eczema.
  • uh what

    it's mostly diet. Creatine I take religiously because it's multifaceted. It both increases energy to the muscles and it is a myostatin blocker.

    I guess a person should add in vitamin C since it's a cortisol blocker but I'm rarely depressed so I skip it and just eat a lot of grapefruit instead.

    I code for a living so it's common for me to use a # symbol to show comments.

    I'm guessing you have things down to a better science for adding on muscle just based on your profile shot. I'm currently at 193 lbs and 14 percent body fat.

    I think he was refering only to the ostabol since he bolded it. There is nothing wrong with the rest except that most aren't actually supliments.
