    I like to take Glucosamine, Chondroitan and MSM as well to help with my joints...though you might not need it w/Deca , since it lubes up your joints anyways.

    Me, too. Does that not happen with other multi-vitamins?

    My mega-men is all gone and I'm not buying more. It had saw palmetto in it. I like my high DHT levels, thank you very much. If I want saw palmetto, then I'll just buy saw palmetto.

    but for all other purposes a good b complex is good. But I think all juicers should do a bit more than just the complex.
    Where's the niacin Johan????

    How much niacin should you take to be effective? I can get it pretty cheap at Sam's Club or Costco.

    Vitamins dont help muscles grow, they keep you out of deficiency so they can grow. On or off cycle you should be eating/supplementing all the vitamins bro.

    Why do you think so?
    I have read somewhere that a regulate intake of calcium is good for things like nervouse system, muscles and of course bones.

    most people achieve a peak bone mass by thier late 20s, and dense bones best protect against age-related bone loss and fractures.

    a low calcium intake during the growing years limits the bones' ability to achieve an optimal mass and density.

    1000mg per day is recommended
    but, yes to much is a bad thing (as with anything)

    nobody said to take EXCESSIVE amounts of calcium
