Mark, your article on anti-oxidents officially scared the living **** out of me. I have never known anything about my vitamin and mineral intake, should I check out a few books, especially the one mentioned in the article? I was one of the people that figured a well balanced diet was enough until I read that...
Do you personally recommend any supplements? Right now I exercise 5-7 days a week, on average an 1 hour a day but this will be stepped up big time in the summer when I start Muay Thai, and have access to a really good gym. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
I'd also recommend reading, Sports Nutrition Guide, Minerals & Vitamins for Athletes, by Dr. Michael Colgan. It has a guide for determining your daily needs based on a number of criteria.
As for specific recommendations, I use (and distribute) USANA, the highest rated supplement in the Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements, by Lyle MacWilliam. I also use Source Naturals (the second highest rated supplement) to fill in some of the blanks.
