I was wondering what supplements you guys are taking? what works for you? I know alot of supplements say on the disclaimer " DO NOT TAKE IF YOU HAVE DIABETES " but who really follows that anyways, I myself am currently taking Protein and a multi. However, when i lose the weight i want to lose i will be taking a multi-vitamine,protein,creatine,glutemine and a NO product. That is the regime i took when i was in my best shape 4 years ago and it worked for me, except the doctor told me not to take protein with casein in it, because it is very hard on our kidneys. WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TAKING?

The List:

Multi-Vitamin - Lot's of theory that it is needed. Research isn't turning out like you would think. As I am cutting I am worried about not getting enough with normal food.

Protein - All types. Never heard of casein being singled out before. Protein is only a kidney issue when you have some renal disease, not before. I have BUN/Cr/urine microalbumin/etc. done twice a year as part of my DM Type II checkups.

Omega-3 fish oil - Total of 3g (That's 10 1000mg fish oil pills). Plenty of research here to back up heart health, lowered cholesterol.

Creatine - Some good research here. see above for protein concern.

BCAA's - Again, some theory, especially in cutting. Not a great amount of good research here though.

Magnesium - I take it as I have been low in the past and my low-grain/bean low-carb diet is low in Mg. I do not think the ZMA craze comes from a good study.

I am taking all of those on Xyphis' list. In addition I am taking zinc, a B-complex (b-6, b12, and folic acid) and have recently added Taurine (It helps me sleep better and is supposed to be good for my eyes) I thought about glutemine but when I researched it on the internet; it says it raises blood sugar and diabetics should not take it!!!!!
I am glad to see some activity on this site! Thanks

I started taking glutamine about a month ago, 4g per day. Did not affect my readings. BS is usually around 90 in the morning.

I also take:
creatine 5g per day
myoplex protein shakes
EAS carb control shakes
Fish Oil 5g per day
FRS low cal energy drinks
CLA 3g per day
multi vitamin

I am doing and feeling great
