This may come as quite a shock to hear but it's true... I hate supplements.

Now, I do have to qualify that remark, as I don't hate ALL supplements...

• I hate the ones that make people think they can eat horrible nutrition and train like idiots (or not at all) while still getting the results they want.
  
  
• I hate the supplements that push big glossy magazine ads with (let's face it) physiques that are unachieveable by natural means at impressionable young guys who want to gain muscle but don't know how to do it through good training and eating.
  
  
• I hate the supplements that prey on people who are so desperate to lose weight that they'll try anything...except for changing their horrendous eating habits or getting their butt off the couch.
  
  
• I hate the supplements that hide behind a "proprietary formula" blend to disguise the fact that they have almost NONE of the active ingredient actually in it (yeah, if a study shows 800 mg of something is required to have an effect, I'm sure adding 50 mg of it in along with 750 mg of other junk will work like a charm).
  
  
• And I hate the supplements that take research studies so completely out of context that they're completely irrelevant to the actual people who are supposed to take the supplements (when you do a study on starving children in an orphanage in a third-world country and you give them some nutrition, shocker...they're going to build muscle).
  
  
• I hate the supplements that distort the research that actually HAS been done on legitimate populations in order to prove that their garbage supplement works (here's a good one...those weight gain forumlas? A study done on those showed NO difference in results between taking that and equal caloric amount of WHITE SUGAR...not even joking, though I wish I was. They didn't include THAT in the magazine ad for it.).

Okay, that's enough hating for now...

What I LIKE are supplement companies that stand behind what they put out...that do everything they can to ensure a high-quality product that contains what it's supposed to and has enough active ingredient to actually DO something.

What I also like are companies that follow legitimate research to make sure their products are effective and actually TEST their products on the actual people who are going to be using them.

If YOU like this kind of thing, too, I definitely recommend you check out my favorite online supplement resource, Examine.com.

Right now, to celebrate their tenth anniversary of operation, they're running a 34% off sale on their informational products.

Their 34% Off Sale Ends TONIGHT

And while they offer a TON of free information online...their info products take things to a whole new level in terms of supplement knowledge and education.

Bottom line, if you're interested in LEGITIMATE science-based information on supplements, I HIGHLY recommend you check out their site.

They're all about education...they don't sell any supplements at all. Pure, unbiased information.
