Over the next 2 episodes, we will discuss supplements. Today, we talk about some of the most popular supplements and discuss those that work.

Next week we will follow that up with an episode where we will fill you in on those supplements that do not work and quite honestly are a waste of money.

Which Supplements Work

Whey protein

* Byproduct of cheese production

* Leucine – 2-3 grams

* 3 forms – Concentrate (good), Isolate (better), and Hydrolysate (best)

Creatine

* It will help you build muscle faster

* It will help you get stronger faster

* It improves anaerobic endurance

* It improves muscle recovery

Beta alanine

* http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/your-expert-guide-to-beta-alanine.html

* Carnosine absorbs H+ ions, does not block as mentioned. The absorption of the H+ ions helps maintain pH balance in the muscle tissues.

* http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/beta_alanine.htm

* https://examine.com/supplements/beta-alanine

Multivitamin

* Focuses on micronutrients

* Even a great diet lacks in micronutrients

* Look for gel-cap vitamin – gender specific

Shakeology

* Lose weight

* Reduce junk food cravings

* The proteins, fiber, and healthy fats will help you feel fuller longer, so you’re less likely to snack.

Fish oil

* Omega-3 essential fatty acids

* EPA/DHA
