Wasn’t sure where to post this, but more reason to support trustworthy brands.

Check that table at the bottom.

Amazon supplements are really something to be careful with. I mean you really need to have an idea of what you need even if the brand ends up being totally honest and selling exactly what they claim - for instance, just look at how many Curcumin products have ANY black pepper extract to help absorption at all. It’s depressingly few, let alone insufficient dosage when you find it. That works out fine for someone already adding Bioperine to their handful of choice supps, but not so much for most buyers who don’t really know anything beyond “I was recommended to take Curcumin for my health, and I’m on a budget.”

Amazon is mostly just re-badged blends...Look at that one pre...what is it, BUCKED UP WOKE AF or something with a Deer on it. Horrible formulation all of them use as well, somehow it's in GNC and Vitamin Shoppe now too. Wacky.

Yep.

I’m always quite concerned with label accuracy. There was also just an article on Ergo-Log about SARMS not containing what’s on their label. Other ingredients have documented labeling issues.

And more related to your post: turnkey manufacturers have made it pretty simple for Joe Schmo to create their own supplement line and put it on Amazon, therefore you get some pretty subpar formulas with outstanding marketing that probably sell quite well.

not a fan of GNC, but i hate to see any business close.
Absolutely. It’s the unfortunate tale of a brick-and-mortar company taking to long to ramp up their e-commerce business. Their operating model (malls/strip malls primarily) + COVID-19 was a combo that would be tough to overcome even if they weren’t as indebted as they were.

Maybe we’ll see them bounce back from bankruptcy with an e-commerce model (it’s a pretty crowded space, though - but they do have the name recognition).

AE is older delivery (there’s more behind it).

Haven’t ever used CelluVol but I was looking for a high dosed Glycerol + Citrulline and wanted some noots as well (I’m doing a bunch of split training so something I can take later in the day is needed). Almost went with Novapump Neuro, but I don’t want too many pump agents so the combo in this sounded perfect. I’ve got a ton of bulk Tyrosine and ALCAR too (1g Tyrosine + 1g ALCAR + the 300mg of Alpha-GPC in half a scoop of CelluVol was perfect for me).

Some Merica Energy just showed up as well but too lazy to take another picture. 🤷‍♂️

How'd yall use it? Just daily boost or PWO?
PreWO stacker. Goes well with a ton of formulas. Honestly had some great training sessions traveling with just a couple caps of Special Forces and an energy drink from the gas station. Just gives that extra spark.

Both of these were old, I was just too lazy to post them. The Predator was BOGO, but I forgot to take the fourth bottle out.


That Hypnos formula is the best sleep aid ever. I’m on my last tub and wish it still was that formula.

Good price, but the flavoring is disappointing. The Donut tastes like maple/pancakes. I am on the Cinnamon Cereal one now and it barely tastes as such. The things that gets me with that powder is the foaming, you'd think there was soap in your shaker. Clean Protein on the other hand tastes so much better.

I saw the old formula, it looks amazing. I used it once so far and it works very well.

‘The dreams I get on the old formula are so lucid it’s insane. I’ve never experienced anything like that before.

It's like Christmas morning everyday at my house. I'm thinking about investing 10 grand in Amazon. In 20 years it will be the only way the world shops.

I know thats the problem. Then what happens if you invest in Amazon and then they sell it? Does the stock transfer to the new owners or do they cash you out? I def want to open a brokerage account.

it is also possible they break amazon up under monopoly laws like they did standard oil back in the day?

Your stock would be transferred to the new company, you can make money in the stock market, but you can loose it also.
