Food sucks compared to supplements, when comparing the benefits and the nutritional value from either. I mean, one serving of a supplement can equal to the effect that will take you years to achieve through the use of food. Not saying that getting all this stuff from food is bad or anything, maybe even healthier...But honestly, the average age expectancy is like ~100, if you are lucky. That is not enough time to wait around waiting for your body get all your vitamins and ****s from vegetables and meats.
That is sort of like saying, should you wait until you feel more awake or take a cup of coffee. Let's clarify, say you are at work and your attention is vital...Yeaaah...Supplement > Natural
I am still fairly a noob with supplements, so my opinions lack any information to back it up, but I have been eating a healthy diet for the past ~20, and even now I feel as though supplements put me to a level that has been incomparable to my life so far. I mean, I just feel so awake and so refreshed, bullet-proof health. Not saying it was that much worse sans-supplements, but apparently all that food can only give you so much.
I mean, have you seen the % daily use on some of these supplements, especially the ones exceeding the 100s, I mean damn, let's see food try to do that. It is almost like we are essentially home-brewing a super[wo]man, damn!
I say, life is short, take your supplements. We don't have time to sit around and wait for the body to naturally take in all the stuff it needs, we need our work, education, etc. No time to sit around and stuff our faces, we need to keep running, keep reaching our true potential, doing the best mother****ing job we can do!!! And supplements are there to help!!! To help us succeed!!!
But seriously, just research the supplements you currently take and make sure there are no conflicts happening and just be careful and follow the directions, be smart. And remember to take it easy with the stimulants, because those do make your heart working harder than usual, just be careful.
