Wondering what you guys would suggest for a natural supplement stack for a 22 year old, I'm pretty serious about my training and not too phased as to what the total stack would cost. I currently run a pretty standard (Protein, BCAA, Zinc+Magnesium, Fish oil) Having a break from Creatine monohydrate for the moment. I recognise that most natural, legal supplements won't cause huge gains but I'm always looking to improve my physique. Focusing on strength and size for the moment.
I tried Sns x-gels a few years ago and noticed that my joints were pretty much immediately inflammed and sore, so I stopped taking the gels before too long. The pain hung around and I think it attributed to some patella tendonitis. I was bulking and alot heavier at the time which probably didn't help but the pain/inflammation wasn't something I experienced prior to taking the supplement.
Anyhow I see alot of people swearing by it so I might be willing to try it again just wondering what I could take or do to prevent that happening again? Taking fish oils or joint supplements would defeat the purpose of using ArA? I play sport aswell so crazy joint pain isn't ideal, I don't think the benefits would outweigh the cons in my situation. Epicatechin is also something that interests me but the studies I've read some pretty inconclusive.
If there are any other supplements you guys would suggest to be added to my stack or your own stack that works great please let me know.
Sorry for the long paragraph, appreciate any help or advice. Thanks!
