Hi there,

Just to add to this debate, I would like to know if there are any particualr vit/min which the body requires in particular for bodybuilders?? (as opposed to the average couch potato)

What I have been told is:

1. Multivitamin - to get the basic neccessities
2. Vit. C 1-3g for immune system + recovery
3. 500-1500iu vit E for fatigue + recovery + antioxidant (especially if on a low fat diet for some reason)
4. B-Complex for digestion and energy
5. optionally - extra calcium, magnezium, zinc, vit. D - if you experience cramping or easy injury, otherwise not too essential.

Any other things which might be considered ESSENTIAL if training hard??

Thanks!
