Making great gains early on I didn't know what protein powder was in 1976. After some years and filling out my shirts and my skinny frame benching 250 for 5 reps I discovered protein in 1980 and the taste was horrific. Between the taste, the cost and fact I was 16, smoking cigarettes and pushing descent weights for 155lbs twig I decided food was working fine.
I've always leaned on real protein SRC's of meats, eggs and fish. My recent protein powder run made me bloated and my TRT guy said man made proteins are the hardest on kidney function. Needless to say I am ON food 5-6 times a day and fell much better with a flatter stomach.
I do believe in multi's and liver support and would take fish oils if not for the severe acne I get from them.
My favorite multi over the years is Nature's Best Hardcore Pak, Liv 52 or Costco Liver tabs, extra B complex high in Biotin.
Basic food groups are always going to produce the best results IMO and Sups are just that: Supplementation.
