Animal Pak vs GNC Mega Men

**l2elapse** · 04-03-2006, 03:41 PM

Which is better? Animal pak looks promising but i also hear good things about GNC

I personally dont spend that much on a multi I go and get the active one daily but in my opinion I would go with Mega Mens

I think they are two different things.
You'll find more Amino profiles in the Animal Pak.
The Mega Man is a multi with a few tweaks for good measure.
I've taken both and I would recommend taking both together for a nice base if you're new to supplements.
Couple these with some Whey protein and a good diet - you should see some decent gains.

animal pak wins...ive taken both...the difference is that animal pak is 8 pills...megamen is 2 pills...i still take megamen though because its more convenient and cheaper.

If you take both together wouldnt you worry about the Vit A content seeing how too much is toxic to your body?

I didn't see Vitamin A as a large portion in the Animal Pak when I looked at the profile. I have always thought the body absorbed a lot more of this than we all think. From what I've read you could eat 3 oz. of chicken and drink a glass of carrot juice and you're all ready at 400% + of daily intake.

Here is where I found the Vitamin A info

I just didn't think you get the BCAA's from the regular Mega-Men

I've just used an "average" multi when I've taken Animal Pak and it's worked out decent for me.

i have heard that the animal paks are too many compounds and that they are not worth it! the gnc vitamins are just packed with a bunch of vitamin b
