    Trying to take in 10g of C hoping to stop the pain in my joints from doing cardio 2x/day last week. I'm just walking, but my knees, ankles, and now my left hip are aching. Plus my L4-L5 disc/sciatic nerve is killing me.
    I just turned 30 on Thursday. Is this what I have to look forward to from here on out? Every thing hurting more and more each and every year?
    Ibuprofin *#@&'s you up! Can't take that any more. Upsets the stomuch and it hinders gains.

    taking amino pills is idiotic the pwdr is way more effective unless ur pills are CHEAP and each are the size of an almond, and even then it sucks
    NO2 is nothing more than AAKG, yet again better as a pwdr.. why milk thistle? u drink everyday? or take massive amounts of 17aa? still not that effective and has never reduced my liv enzyme elevation from cycle (i get blood work done every month BELIEVE ME its nothing special, fish oil? why not eat fish, 4grams of fish oils really isnt anything special, u get ample taurine from ur diet if u eat enough meat, UNLESS UR ON HIGH DOSES OF CLEN... all in all supplements are pointless if ur diet is good..

    i hope you don't take ibuprofin every day it can cause kidney failure.


    SVT= make sure you get your iron checked often. multi's can cause high iron in alot of people.

    personally i all take is a baby aspirin ED.

    I really like No2, even if it is mental, i get great pumps from it.
    I take milk thistle but i dont drink nor take any 17aa, just rather be healthy and safe
    Fish Oils because i frankly dont eat fish
    and taurine and potassium because i am on high doses of clen

    J.S.N I do take ibufrofin everyday to deal with the pain from my bulging discs...I know it isn't the best on the liver but is there any OTC pain killer that I could take everyday that would be more safe?

    talk to your doc, but you may be able to replace it with costisone shots- they provide a stronger anti-inflammatory effect anyways. a guy i worked with last year was having bad back problems and he ended up getting a couple shots because pills weren't working. he said it was the only thing that helped.

    That's why you should take Flush-Free Niacin.

    There is no answer.. Or rather the answer is subjective/relative.

    'too many' may be at the point where it causes a gastric problem..etc.

    The set point at which this occurs would differ from individual to inidividual.

    I've only known one individual who had a problem from ingesting too many pills. He got stomach ulceration or something to that effect.

    The number of pills he was popping was 'low' imo.. at least it would've been 'low' to me.

    That's what i mean by the amount being relative to the individual.

    Or did i overshoot?

    Its Subjectivity in this aspect however may be with reference to the mg/gr/IU amounts the individual consumes..whereas, 'too much'/'too many' would be with reference to the relative (or combined) toxicity of the compounds.

    C'mon man..that's a generic question

    30 pills of what?

    Dianabol? Possibly

    A non-heptaoxic compound? No.

    Scroll up.. 'bad' is relative to the compound; the individual; and the amount of the compound (in relation to its relative toxicity.. or its toxicity when consumed with other compounds)

    Well I know regular pills are not toxis like 17aa's but i figured since your liver is breaking them down still.... just making sure

    30 pills a day are bad for you.. Even though it they arent toxic.. Your live has to work overtime to break down a pill.. But 30 a day.. is too much
