Optimum Nutrition Glucosamine Plus CSA Super Strength Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The product works for me. My personal experience includes daily doses of various brands including the Optimum Nutrition Glucosamine Plus CSA, 120 capsule product during the last six years, except during twice yearly 2-week periods when I take no supplements. When taking the supplement routinely, I experience little to no joint discomfort in my hands, knees and hips. Within two or three days after cessation of dosage, my joint aches and pains resume to a moderate level. Within a week to ten days after resuming daily dosage, I become symptom free or nearly so. Although many studies have tried to evaluate the efficacy of glucosamine with chondroitin for the relief of symptoms of joint ache and pain, the literature reveals conflicting conclusions and does not reveal a definitive study that reaches a clear positive or negative conclusion. Anecdotal reports suggest daily doses of the combination have resulted in relief from mild to moderate joint ache and pain for a wide spectrum of consumers. However, other consumers report no effect. I should disclose that as a 60-year-old, I include in my daily regime vitamin supplements, a healthy diet and moderate to intense exercise from one to three hours, six days a week.

Vitamin Shoppe - L-Arginine-Ornithine, 2000 mg Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had no idea what L-Arginine was until a couple of months ago. I found that it was one of the main ingredients in a pre-workout energy drink mix that I was using, and so I did some research and shopping around to find a cheaper source, since the drink mix was nearly $3 per serving (one serving contained 2500mg L-Arginine).
I ended up buying this bottle, along with a bottle of Source Natural 1000mg tablets to try out.
Well, this one wins. And here's why.
First of all, this pill is 1250mg L-Arginine and 750mg L-Ornithine. Supposedly, they're good to take together. Any evidence to this effect seems to be speculative or anecdotal, at least from the short time I spent looking it up. Point is, I guess it can't hurt to have both. The pills are nearly the same size, so you may as well take this one, since the other one is only 1000mg L-Arginine with nothing else.
Second, they're slightly cheaper per gram. The 300-count bottle sold here, if you do the math, is approximately 9.8 cents per 1000mg L-Arginine. The source Natural tablets (sold in a 2-pack of 100 tablet bottles for 200 tablets total) comes out to 11.5 cents per 1000mg L-Arginine.
Third, the Source Natural pills are big, white chalky tablets that taste awful. I don't have a problem swallowing large tablets, but that doesn't mean I enjoy it. :) On the other hand, these are gelatin capsules, and they go down really easily.
Apparently there are a number of good reasons to take these. Personally, I take them as a workout supplement, about 30-45 minutes before starting. I'm currently taking 3500mg (two of these and one Source Natural tablet to get rid of them) before each workout. The difference is noticeable. The actual time I can keep up a given exercise before resting is significantly longer. Once I'm ready to rest, it's only a couple of minutes before I'm ready to go again. When in a group, I'm always the last one that's ready to leave the gym. As a result, the pace with which I am getting back into shape has increased since taking the supplement.
Highly recommended. Seriously.

Noxipro Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Noxipro works well but I stopped using it after a few months because of some adverse side effects. Read the pros & cons and decide for yourself.
Pros:
-Gives me energy and motivation to get to the gym
-Able to push myself a little harder with the extra energy
-Small scoop so you don't have to drink a lot, like with NO Xplode (usually just put it in with 1/2 a bottle of water)
-Has creatine so I don't have to take a 2nd supplement for that
-Doesn't make me jittery
Cons:
-On several occasions, the back of my head has hurt really bad the day after taking noxipro (I never get headaches)
-Not every time but sometimes, several hours after taking noxipro, I feel...different. I'm pretty edgy and it's almost a slight depression...
-My sleep is not as deep, granted I take this supplement at 5pm and maybe its not out of my system or something when I go to sleep at 10pm, but I drink plenty of water before and after to flush it out.
-There's no amounts of the ingredients listed, just says it's a special 'blend'
I've read that one of the components in noxipro, 1-3 dimethylamylamine, is the reason for all the side effects I'm experiencing so it may just be from person to person. I'm stuck having to go back to NO Xplode though...Hope this review helps.

Optimum Nutrition ZMA Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ahh, ZMA. The famed all-natural sleep and recovery aid for bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts. According to most supplement companies, it also increases free testosterone levels, though many studies show that this may not be true. Halfway through a bottle, here's what I've found:
Sleep - This stuff definitely knocks you out. If you take it as directed, 30-60 minutes before bed on an empty stomach, it hits you harder than "The Itis" after a Luther burger (Boondocks reference). You sleep excellently, too, and if you have to get up for any reason, you can easily fall back asleep afterwards. Some people say you have crazy dreams, but I don't ever remember mine, and that hasn't changed since I started taking ZMA. People also claim you wake up feeling awesome and ready to go, but so far I just wake up groggy as ever.
Recovery - This is sorta hard to judge, but my muscles do feel as though they are recovering faster after each workout since I started taking this stuff. Not quite as much soreness, either.
Testosterone - I actually think, despite some studies, that ZMA does have an effect on your testosterone production. I have read other reviews that say ZMA causes acne outbreaks, and I have observed this same thing over the past couple weeks. I don't think it's coincidence that soon after I started taking ZMA I'd randomly have recurring acne outbreaks that definitely weren't as bad before (I'm 19, by the way). But I'm no quitter, so I'm just going to finish this bottle and hope things go back to normal afterwards (there are other reasons I think this influences testosterone as well...see review title).
Other than the sleep, and some possible effects this supplement has had on my muscle tone/size (though there's no way to verify this), this stuff really isn't too fantastic. I gave it 5 stars though because it does what it claims to do. I won't be buying another bottle (unless I have a bad run of insomnia or something) any time soon, but if good sleep and recovery sounds good to you, I say go for it. Most people also have a daily magnesium deficiency, but if you take a good multi like I do you don't have to worry about this as much.

Vitol Products - Russian Bear 5000 Weight Gainer - Ice Cream Vanilla, 4 lb powder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Gained 5lbs I that had been chasing for months in my first week of use, while taking well under the recommended servings. 1-3 scoops in water daily, eating normally and working out 4-6 days a week. It's going on three weeks and combined with rigorous workouts and rest I'm not slimming down like I normally do, I'm tightening and widening. Noticable to others. Found it much cheaper locally though.

Kre-Alkalyn 1500 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been using Sci-Fit Kre-Alkalyn for about a month now and have seen tremendous results. I decided to use it when I decided to start lifting to gain mass very quickly. My brother, who's been lifting seriously for a few years, and I decided to do an experiment. We would do the same exercises but I would use Kre-Alkalyn and he would not. We both take the same protein supplements and kept very similar diets. The results were astounding as he would be sore after extremely hard workouts 1-3 days longer than I would be. The recovery and energy you get out of this product allows you to get in high intensity workouts regularly.
