However, what I noticed is that many of these corporate vitamin stores are trying to sell you a dream in a bottle and will quickly sell you the biggest bottle.

I used to love netrition.com. Check their site.

I often find its useful to refer to webmd and medline plus for supplement info. Its helpful!

You can’t see before and after results like lipids as these chemicals do not stay in the body very long. Ideally you should take a nutrition survey or a DNS analysis to see what you needs based on your diet and/or your genetics. Liquid or isononic capable vitamins are you =r best best for bioavailability and bang for your buck.

My fasting lipid panel results impressed my MD, who started asking me a bunch of questions about them. It helps if you love salmon patties and stuff like sweet potatoes and stay away from fast food. I do take a multivitamin and garlic pills. The thing is, without having levels measured before and after, how do you know what you need and what you don’t? Could be many of us would be far better off just eating well and walking every day.

The hard, standard vitamins do not process quickly and it is estimated that your body only gets about 70% of what’s in the hard pill. It is said that 95% of the liquid form is absorbed. This what told to me by a nutritionist. I am a bodybuilder as well.
