After doing some reading and researching about supplements on other websites and blog posts, I decided that I would like to share some of the relevant information that I found about supplements. I will list 4 of the more important articles that I came across with useful information for you below!
1. Vitamins and Supplements
This website firstly explains the importance of getting enough vitamins and minerals through your diet before resorting to supplements. They then go on to explain what supplements might be useful if you are struggling to meet your micronutrient and health needs.
2. When The Gym Isn't Enough
This article is a great one for young people that would like to learn more about supplements that are recommended for people their age. The article goes into detail about a college student that spent around $1000 on supplements in a year to experiment with what works best for him. The article is great for anyone that needs advice on how to experiment with supplements themselves.
3. Muscles In a Bottle?
I enjoyed reading this article from Men's Health because they lay out very well how certain supplements can be a complete scam, and why others aren't. They explain how the majority of supplements are not worth your time, but the ones that are worth your time can be extremely helpful.
4. Evidence-based recommendations for natural bodybuilding contest preparation: nutrition and supplementation
This science-based article is written by Eric Helms and Alan Aragon, who are both exceptionally intelligent researchers in the fitness field. They lay out some excellent recommendations and give advice on what supplements are recommended for natural bodybuilders based on science-based supplement studies. If you are a bodybuilder or looking to compete in the future, I highly recommend you take a look at the article above to learn some valuable information about contest supplementation.
