Pick Just One Supplement!

Lately, I've been spending way too much money on various supplements and not sure if any are working. If you had to pick one supplement to buy that works... what would it be and why?

A good protein
 
It really depends on what you want and what you already use. Protein sure, but if you're eating 300 grams of protein from food, it's not a necessity.

Supplements are meant to be used to support and enhance gains and that comes from many places -- nutrients, hormone elevation, increases blood supply, focus, endurence, etc, etc etc, If you're serious, you'll use the ones that'll help you.

It's like asking if you can only do one exercise or eat one kind of food.

Honestly, this is one thing everyone should use no matter what. It ain't sexy but it's a must: http://proteinfactory.com/shop/product.php?productid=427&cat=0&page=1

multis are a must
 
Due to time, (work and family commitments) location, and financial constraints, I would not realistically be able to consistently consume 300 grams of protein per day through strictly food, so I would choose Whey Protein Isolate as the only supplement. It would supplement my normal food intake making sure I got enough to replenish and build muscle mass.

"Whey protein is a naturally complete protein, meaning that it contains all of the essential amino acids required in the daily diet. It has the ideal combination of amino acids to help improve body composition and enhance athletic performance.
Whey protein is a rich source of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), containing the highest known levels of any natural food source. BCAAs are important for athletes since unlike the other essential amino acids, they are metabolized directly into muscle tissue and are the first ones used during periods of exercise and resistance training. Whey protein provides the body with BCAAs to replenish depleted levels and start repairing and rebuilding lean muscle tissue.
Whey protein is an excellent source of the essential amino acid, leucine. Leucine is important for athletes as it plays a key role in promoting muscle protein synthesis and muscle growth. Research has shown that individuals who exercise benefit from diets high in leucine and have more lean muscle tissue and less body fat compared to individuals whose diet contains lower levels of leucine. Whey protein isolate has approximately 50% more leucine than soy protein isolate.
Whey protein is a soluble, easy to digest protein and is efficiently absorbed into the body. It is often referred to as a "fast" protein for its ability to quickly provide nourishment to muscles.
Whey protein helps athletes maintain a healthy immune system by increasing the levels of glutathione in the body. Glutathione is an anti-oxidant required for a healthy immune system and exercise and resistance training may reduce glutathione levels. Whey protein helps keep athletes healthy and strong to perform their best."
