    Most supplements are snake oil. Some of them are toxic snake oil. Also, if that's you in your profile picture, you already look like you're a healthy weight, in which case you would benefit more from lifting heavy and eating maintenance than you would from dieting.

    i do fish/krill oil and protein. if you eat fish you probably don't need the fish oil. if you're looking to build more muscle i would definitely do protein shakes. other than that though if you're eating a balanced diet there's probably no need to take any supplements.

    coffee (for me coffee is a food, a supplement, a godsend)

    multi vitamin
    fish oil
    creatine
    protein powder (casein and whey)
    BCAA for fasted workouts

    nope. If they worked everyone would take them. I'd stay just stick with a women's multivitamin.

    I take Centrum Women Under 50(I'm way, way, /way/ under 50). It's made my hair grow very quickly, and it's got, literally, everything.
