    Mixing supplements (bad or good?)

    Just curious as the title says. Ill make this as short as possible.

    Is it safe to consume all of these supplements?

    Just getting serious about lifting/cutting fat and want to make sure I'm doing it right. My diet is fine and I lift 5x a week and do cardio every morning, empty.

    Meals 1 / 3 / 5
    1x opti-men
    2x CLA core
    1x Triple strength fish oil
    1x green tea extract

    Meals 2 / 4 / 6
    Whey isolate based

    Pre workout:
    6x Amino Tech

    Post Workout:
    6x Amino Tech

    What are your thoughts as im basically "new" to supplements.

    thanks

    Too many supps in my opinion.

    I take a multi, fish oil, creatine mono, whey protein, and preworkout whenever I have some and feel like taking it.

    I wouldn't advise all of the aminos and cla because it's mostly a waste. Amino acids come from protein, so if you take an ample amount of protein you should get enough aminos.
    Green tea extract? Why not just drink green tea? Go to Walmart and buy the 100% pure green tea bags, go to gnc and buy nustevia (only reason I ever step in that store anymore) and enjoy.

    All of my meals contain protein. Whether it's from egg whites / whole eggs, chicken, red meat, or my protein shakes.

    My diet consists of calorie cutting.

    From my large intake of protein & calorie cutting, does that render the CLA/amino products basically "useless" to me?

    Thanks!
