Supplements for weight loss and muscle building

Everyone always wants to know what the best supplements are. You know, the ones that are actually safe and have REAL benefits.

This is probably why I am constantly asked about which supplements that are best for weight loss, or muscle gain, or supporting workout recovery, or for just overall health and function in general.

If you’re reading this, then you’re probably looking for those sames answers too. Well, good news. This article is going to provide them once and for all.

However, before I do, there are 2 very important facts I need to explain.

• First, the key to weight loss, muscle gain, or just improving your body or health in any way is a combination of a proper diet plan and a proper workout routine. The best supplements in the world won’t do a thing if you don’t get the important stuff right first.
• Second, I am extremely cautious about supplements and what I eat in general. I also don’t fall for idiotic lies and marketing bullshit. What this means is that the supplements I use and recommend all have 2 things in common. They are 100% safe, and they are scientifically proven to be effective and beneficial.

Having said all of that, let’s get to what you came here for. Here are my recommendations for the 5 best supplements…

1. Whey Protein Powder

It plays a crucial role in the growth, repair or function of organs, bones, hair, skin, blood, and… oh yeah… MUSCLE! Quite simply, muscle can NOT be built (or even maintained) without eating a sufficient amount of protein on a daily basis. This makes it the single most important nutrient in the diet of anyone looking to gain any amount of muscle.

And for the people more interested in weight loss, consuming enough protein each day will help ensure the weight you lose is fat, NOT muscle. Protein also plays a key role in curbing your appetite and keeping you full, and will increase the amount of calories your body naturally burns.

For all of these reasons and more, protein supplements are one of the few types of supplements that are backed by proven science. Simply put, protein is extremely important and beneficial, and protein supplements are a quick, simple and convenient way to ensure you consume enough each day.
