Thread: top 10 most important vitamins for bodybuilders ( or people who just work out )

Great post thanks

Not really a vitamin but Taurine seems to be really useful for liver health and muscle/nervous system function.

2gs of omegas

Omegas are overrated.

Folate is another Vitamin in the B complex which is much disregarded especially by males with a majority of pregnant women supplementing their diets during pregnancy.

Folate or better known as Folic Acid has been proven to reduce the level of homocysteine in both males and females and is now available in an active form named 5-MTHF or Methyltetrahydrofilc acid. Combining this supplement with the other B vitamins B2, B6 and B12 and omega 3 fatty acids has reduced the homocysteine levels significantly.

foods rich in Methionine can raise the homocysteine level significantly and high levels of homocysteine are directly related to health conditions including:
stroke
heart disease
Macular degeneration
dementia
and significantly related to depression in males and females and especially pregnancy related depression and mood disorders.

research has shown that methionine is also required for many multiple body functions but having homocysteine levels in the normal range reduces the risk of the health conditions listed above and generally improves the "feel good" feeling in many case studies.

with readers of this forum there maybe benefits to some supplementing their diets that have mood swing issues.

🤔🤔🤔

man i love BOP just because the knowledge i keep obtaining is crazy

I couldn't agree more on vitamin C. I thought it was the most common and easiest vitamin to consume and absorb, but apparently vitamin c is one of the most sensitive vitamins, and even low-heat pasteurization in juice will destroy it. A lot of articles also suggest that ascorbic acid is actually NOT vitamin C. It's worth a search if you're interested in it.
