Supplement Recommendations

This content has been archived. It may no longer be relevant

I am not a huge supplement advocate as I believe most nutrients can be adequately supplied from a healthy diet. However, for those athletes out there or those people who want to go the extra step, I have provided a breakdown of nutrients I have found to be helpful. Please note this is all anecdotal and I have no rock solid proof as these claims are from my own experience, others and my own research.  They are grouped by goal but not really set it stone.

Dosages matter as well, but I’ll take the lazy way out and say use whatever the bottle says and cut in half. That way you can take more if you want and reduce the possibility of toxicity over the long term.
