what supplements do I use while on my first cycle?

**Snakeman4life** · 09-02-2004, 03:17 PM

do you have anti-es?

You need a multi vit EVERY DAY of your life. Especially when on cycle. A good test of wether your multi is any good is to put one in vinegar and see how long it takes to disolve. Under 5 minutes and it's good. Over and it's questionable.

glutamine - 10-20mg/ed throughout the cycle and post cycle
creatine - start when you start clomid, it will help maintain gains

also you might want to look into cranberry extract for kidneys and possibley saw palmetto.

What's the Palmetto major area it helps exactly. I can't recall and I've never used it. Glutamine is a definite good one.

prostate

Saw Palmetto helps with prostate health and can help reduce hairloss a little bit. Take finasteride at 1mg ED if youre prone to hairloss.

Don't you need to front load Finasteride some? I thought I read that but I may be wrong.

its safe to take glutamine during cycle? i thought it will give you liver problems while on gear, no?

**Johnnystick77** · 09-02-2004, 03:59 PM

no way glutamine won't give you liver problems bro...i've heard that you stay away if you have cirrhosis but other than that its encouraged.

I know people do do it. I've never heard of liver troubles but I've never looked in to it with Glutamine either.

Glutamine is also an amino acid. One function of glutamine is to maintain the health of the intestinal tract so that the liver will be properly nourished. The intestinal tract is where nutrients are absorbed. Glutamine, along with NAC, helps to support the production of glutathione, which helps with liver detoxification. Since glutamine is an amino acid, individuals on protein restricted diets due to advanced liver disease should not take this supplement as it will be counted as part of your daily protein intake.

are amino acid tablets worth a ****?

**Johnnystick77** · 09-02-2004, 04:21 PM

F*ck yeah, glutamine helps with preventing catabolism and speeding recovery. amino acids by the way are what makes up protein.
thats what we consume to build muscle right??
