    I don't really take anything special. I'll have a multi-vitamin & krill oil daily. If my protein is low for the day I will have a whey shake.

    Food
    Minimum 3 litres of water a day
    Whey
    Bcaa
    Omega 3
    Super greens drink (replaced my multi with this)
    Super reds drink
    Vitamin d
    Zma


    With the exception of whey and omega 3, I don't think I'll be buying this stuff after my current stock finishes.
    All of this can be had if I just bothered to cook more often.
    Nothing beats whole food.

    Multi
    Fish oil
    Vit B-12
    Vit D
    Biotin
    BCAA drink during and just after workouts
    1 smoothie a day with scoop of whey protein, scoop of super greens, kale and fruit (mostly as the last meal of day) Note: I don't think a smoothie is necessary but I see it as a dessert and it helps with my sweet tooth.

    I also eat very healthy and drink a ton of water.

    Whey protein and creatine monohydrate

    Vitamin D sometimes.


    If you're already taking whey protein around your workout AND you're getting in adequate total protein during the day then you can probably ditch the BCAAs.

    Creatine monohydrate, and whey protein when needed.

    Greens and multi powder and fish oil every day
    Occasionally BCAAs, pre workouts and thermogencis

    Protein powders I use at least once a day to either put in yogurt, otatmeal, pancakes, waffles, protein ice cream etc. I never drink it

    I don't take any. I am healthy and eat well. Like others here, I toss in some whey powder with my oatmeal, muesli and muffins to improve the protein content, not unlike I'd throw a boiled egg on a salad. I don't consider this a real "supplement".

    OP - Whey protein is an excellent source of BCAAs, so you might not need the extra product to rebuild your muscle fibres.
