Did you ever notice supplements suck?

[FlexManning]

I know this is beating a dead horse, but wtf. Every time I pick up a magazine there's
a study where some new super supplement turns out to be a load of bullshit.
And here's a golden rule, if even one credible writer says that a supplement is
a fraud, then it probably is no matter how many others say it's viable.
Hell what's really out there? Creatine and Glutamine, a multivitamin and a good
tasting protein powder? If something works really well then one of two things happens:
either it becomes a prescription substance or it becomes totally illegal (even
ecstacy, lsd, marijuana, and heroin have some medical uses).

I beleive that this is the leading factor bringing all of us together on the anabolic board

 

[FlexManning]

I think, too, that a lot of guys are extra gung ho because they're tired of being
lied to.

FlexManning,i agree whole heartedly with you bro.Since reading up/studying aas for a year or two before deciding(thankfully) to use them,you get to see and understand the bullshit the market men print in magazines to sell shite supplements.
Let Muscle-Tech try and sue my ass off for this comment along with that lying piece of shit Zulak,but there's been studies that have proven that their supposed protein that claims to have 40= gms of protein in has as little as 5gms.Now that is a complete friggin' rip off where nothing gets done about it.
As Flex M. says creatine,glutamine a good multi vitamin-mineral and a good protein if you can find one is the only supp's needed.Save the rest of your money for gear,you'll be damned glad you did.
One final word.DON'T BUY prohormones.Biggest crock of shit going.
I thankyou and goodnight,

I agree, most of the supps you buy that claim to have steroid like results are shit and are just a marketing scam to take money from the consumers.

I learned that lesson the hard way but fortunately only got ripped off on one or two bogus supps. ZMassPM was one that sounded good in theory to me but sucked ass when I tried it.

I have to completely disagree.

With the advancements of supplements people are getting bigger naturally than ever before.

Dont forget protein powder is also considered as a food supplement.

Creatine, Glutamine, Protein, Amino Acids, Efa's and so on.

What kind of a message is this post sending out to everyone? Of course you aas are more effective but they are illegal and harmful and dont let anyone tell you different.

Peace

Creatine, Glutamine, Protein, Amino Acids, Efa's and a good multi are all you need... The rest is a complete waste of money. Other than the 6 supplements mentioned above, that will be the only "natural" supplements I will use.

 

[FSUGeneticFreak]

You'd think will all the monet companies make from ripping customers off that someone would come out with a supplement that acutally is useful, besides the ones previously listed. maybe one day my friends, just maybe.

FlexManning,

Just out of curiosity, who do you consider a credible writer?? There might be 5 in the entire industry

Between the temptation to bash competitors products , to the natural tendency to view ones own work as superior, to personal dislikes, to lack of knowledge, to anti-supplement biases... you get the point, it is very difficult to find someone that is honest, unbiased, and knowledgable. Even Lyle McDonald, who I consider the most knowledgable person in the industry and who also has no financial ties to any supplement, has recently changed his stance on prohormones from saying no way they work, to saying he doesn't doubt that high doses of intranasal and transdermal probably do. Also, we can never forget the shit Bill Phillips/MM2K/EAS pulled.

The point: the only way to decide if something should work is to take a critical look at the science presented.

Very well stated
