There are a number of supplements that I use that I believe are must haves if you want to put on muscle and get stronger. Currently these are the supplements in my kitchen.

• Protein Powder – I have three different powders in my kitchen. One that I use for meal replacements, one for my workout drink and and another for post training.
• Creatine – I use 5 grams in my workout drink.
• Multi-purpose vitamin and mineral tablet – one a day as dietary insurance.
• Fish Oil

There are hundreds of other options available but these are a great place to start. If you want a great deal on supplements, check out BodyBuilding.com

Fiber Facts
by Dr. John BerardiShoot for about 40-50g of mixed fiber per day, but no more. The absolute lower limit is 20g per day. Your main fiber sources should be (in order of importance): vegetables, beans, nuts, fruit, and grains (like oatmeal). If you eat 1 oz of mixed nuts, 1 apple, 2 cups of kidney beans, and 2 cups of mixed vegetables each day, you’ll be getting 41g of fiber. Also, a small amount of supplemental fiber is okay. You can get soluble fiber from psyllium, guar gum, and apple pectin, and insoluble fiber from flax seeds.
