Pills or Powder?

[playLOVEGUNboy]

So I'm looking to take Maca and Tribulius. Is it better to take these supplements in powdered for or pill form?

If it tastes bad, probably pills.

Convenience is another issue that comes down to you

It's better to not take tribulus at all. It's been proven to be completely uneffective at building muscle or increasing strength.

I was taking it more for sexual purposes

I wasnt sure about that.

For the most part pill vs powder is a taste, mixability, and convenience thing. Most of our capped products at AN taste like butt lol. Litup is the exception of course

Strong username to post content ratio then.

That's the one thing tribulus is good for.

Powdered or pill is personal preference. Powder will usually be cheaper but pills are more convenient. It's all up to you. One won't be more effective than the other.

okay cool and do you think if I take it with a big meal it will reduce it's effectiveness?

You only absorb 10-20% of supplements in pills. That's why creatine powder is more expensive than capsules.

No.

No.

Why do you think creatine powder is more expensive then pills? You get a lot more out of the powder.

It depends on the product. Some vary with food intake.

This is extremely flawed... what has led you to this thought process?

There is a lot more that goes into capping a product compare to filling a tub. Also, capped products are usually something that offers more than bulk powder.

First of all, you're 15. Get out of the supplement section and get in to the nutrition and training sections. You shouldn't even be taking supplements at your age.


Creatine powder is cheaper than pills per serving.

Let's take a look at ON Micronized Creatine Monohydrate:

Look at the prices per serving:

Capsules: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ca...te=store&btnG=


Powder: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ca...r=0&site=store


The powder already has a lower price per serving and you still have to take in to account the the capsules have half as much creatine per serving as the powder does.

Capsules are more expensive because it costs supplement companies time/money to cap the creatine. Also, supp companies know that some people will pay the extra amount because of the convenience of the capsules. It has nothing to do with what is more effective. They are the same thing. If you open up creatine capsules you get the same exact powder you would if you ordered the powdered form.

Bulldog is good people


In the real world, if a delivery method only provided 10-20% that method would not be used. You can have a source say otherwise, but it just would not work. Another way to look at it, think on the massive money scale of big pharmaceuticals where effectiveness has to be legitimately proven. The delivery methods are similar.

If using Trib go with the much stronger version Alatus.
Both Recycle and T-bol are capsules.
