What supplements should i be taking??? - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Paul · 06-04-2006, 05:04 PM

Hey guys =] Im 17, 6ft 2 and 12 stone, I was just wondering what legal supplements I should be taking and when to build muscle mass. Im a vegetarian and currently take Ultimate Nutrition monohydrate creatine and whey protein 80%+. I take 5 grams of creatine with 40 grams of whey protein once a day. Is there anything else that I should be taking??
Also I have heard from a few people that I should not be taking creatine until I am 18 and stopped growing because it can damage my kidneys. Is this true??

Creatine will not damage your kidney's providing you drink plenty of water

Essesntial supps IMO

-Whey protien
-Multi vits and minerials
-Vit C 500-1000mg ED
-Zinc (preferably ZMA)
-CEE (Creatine Ethyl Ester)
