Supplements on Muscle Gain
Understanding supplements is important for several key reasons, especially when your goal is muscle gain.
Creatine Monohydrate
Whey Protein
Branch Chain Amino Acids
Anyone know where I can obtain more of these within Canada? Oxbow hasn't been able to make any for a while because of supply chain issues, and one of my chinchillas needs them to keep away bladder crystals. I'm running low and don't want him to be in pain. #chinchilla #UrinaryHealth #VeterinaryMedicine #supplements

Expanding on that good advice:
And tell them or your doctor if they ask about any #AlternativeMedicine, #FolkMedicine, #TraditionalMedicine, #CulturalMedicine, #Supplements, #Homeopathy and/or #Herbs that you're taking.
(And ignore any person who tries to interfere with clear patient-doctor communication.)
It's getting harder and harder to sort through good #medicine, bad medicine, and outright bogus marketing claims — especially with unregulated #supplements that have become ridiculously popular despite no evidence that they work, and plenty of side effects. This doctor has strong opinions, and serious warnings, about misleading ads on TV and the internet for cures to anything that ails us.
As magnesium supplements become more popular, it’s essential to understand their benefits, how they support overall well-being, and whether they could be a worthwhile addition to your routine.

With the lack of comprehensive federal regulations specifically addressing heavy metals in dietary supplements, it is critical that the industry independently takes proactive measures.

Why are these supplements packaged this way? There are only 30 capsules in this big honking container. It's full only up to my thumbnail in the second image. To make it even worse, black plastic isn't recyclable in most cities. It ends up in the landfill and/or the water. If I could find a more ethical and affordable way to get these supplements, I would.
The third image compares two bottles of the same sort of supplement. They both come with the same number of capsules, and the smaller bottle is still twice the size it needs to be.
I take these to help combat exhaustion from long COVID. It has been helping. Before I started taking my suitcase full of supplements, I was unable to walk more than ten minutes or so without being completely exhausted. Now I can walk for a couple of hours without being destroyed. #supplements #waste #packaging #LongCovid #recovery

What always gets me about the #antivaccine vaccine-skeptic crowd is that they'll complain "we don't know what they're putting in our bodies!" while simultaneously ALWAYS consuming a cornucopia of bullshit supplements. They're fully FOR people being filled with "unknown" ingredients, but only unknown ingredients being sold by snake oil salesmen.

Nahrungsergänzungsmittel können gesundheitsförderlich, unwirksam oder sogar gefährlich sein. Das Problem: Woher bekommen Sie unabhängige Informationen dazu, welche #Nahrungsergänzungsmittel sinnvoll sind und welche nicht? Das Internet ist voll von selbsternannten #Expertinnen und #Experten, die Verunsicherung verbreiten und teilweise lebensgefährliche Empfehlungen. Genau deshalb braucht es dieses Buch!
Prof. Dr. Martin Smollich erforscht Nahrungsergänzungsmittel seit 20 Jahren – im Labor und in #Studien an Menschen. Dieses Buch ist seine Quintessenz aus zwei Jahrzehnten #Forschung und Praxiserfahrung. In diesem großen Standardwerk zum Thema Nährstoffe und #Supplements zeigt er, wie Sie die besten Nahrungsergänzungsmittel für sich nutzen können, ohne auf unwirksame oder gefährliche Präparate hereinzufallen
Viel hilft wenig!
Follower*innen der Wellnessbewegung, die öfter mal über „BigPharma“ oder die „Schulmedizin“ raunen, vergiften sich gern selber.
