Supplements - to Take or Not to Take?


Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

Had a supplement phase a few years back (diba tayong lahat naman hehe). Was the worst waste of money for <1% gains in any metric. I learned to focus on the Big Basics - good diet, training, & sleep.

In my case, prolly the single best supplement is protein powder (whey, skim milk powder, or soy protein isolate). Protein is the most neglected macro, but also the most expensive one to reach decent daily levels. Unless you eat chicken breast, eggs, & TVP every meal, you'll be either spending a big chunk of your grocery food budget on protein, or not eating nearly enough to be healthy.

been taking 900 mg (2 450g tablet) of ASHWAGANDHA tablets and I plan on alternating it with L ARGININE...

ever since my diet changed (more dairy products, more meat) need to have sufficient supplements to sustain my cut...

sir how long have you been taking ashwagandha?


been taking it for 2 weeks now, grabe sarap ng tulog ko which has been a problem due to my erratic schedule sa work. kaya nung first week of taking, 3x ako na-late sa meetings ko hahahaha

i think mga 3 months pero hind araw araw and yung swanson na brand higher MG kasi you take 2 which mas ok tulog ko but I have one, its only 375MG but i take it everyday and so far ok naman though hindi kasing sarap ng tulog ko when i was taking swanson.

for context nasa P675 yung swanson 50tablets, 2 tablets per day 350MG each i think not sure while the one i am taking now is 375 or 400MG per tablet once per day.

what's yours bro? and how much? sa LAC kasi mayrun din nasa P1300 discounted

there were people having side effects na nagiging manhid ka na sa feelings ng iba and you became a bit more selfish to an extent and for me, yes hindi na ako emotional towards other people besides my family and really close friends of course kasi may bond na yun but to those na meet mo lang for a few months, you really don't give a care na talaga. have u felt this bro?

haven't noticed it, baka dahil manhid nako talaga even before taking 😅 but now that you mentioned it, will check myself. nung una may slight headaches lang pero very manageable. salamat sa inputs bro, I'll keep taking them then let's see.
