Seems like all I do is pop pills. I'm 4 weeks on a moderate dose cycle
Here is what my daily supplements look like

3 cranberry extract
3000g of Saw Palmetto
3000g of fish oil
Taurine twice a day
green tea extract
mulit vit
93mg of asprin
CoQ10 400mg

Which ones would you cut

I'm assuming you mean mg not g. I would love to see you drinking 3kg of fishoil every day:)

For maximum benefits from fish oil, some experts recommend as much as 10g a day (assuming 300mg of EPA/DHA), but I like to go with about half of that since I find it harder to gain weight when taking in 10g a day.

"Data from the University of Western Ontario shows that fish oil supplementation increases lean body mass (during non-dieting conditions), increases BMR (by up to 400 kcal/day), decreases inflammation, and improves the ratio of fat/carb oxidized (sparing carbs, burning fat). Start with 6-10g per day of total fish oil (assuming 30% EPA and DHA)."

I don't see much need for taurine unless you're taking clen... I'm not aware of any other benefits it might have.

Unless you think you're susceptible to heart disease or anything that might require a blood thinner such as aspirin, I would stop taking it. Long-term use (2 weeks +) is not very good. If you're taking it for muscle pain, stop as well. There's tons of reasons, but I don't feel like elaborating right now.

The rest of the stuff is good.
 
To the previous 2 posters: what do you base your suggestions on?

Nothing wrong with taking any of those , stop being a bitch :p and swallow them pills.
 
because I'm a scientist, and most people don't know how to read scientific journal articles correctly.

I would LOVE fish oil if it wasn't for heavy metal contamination. I don't trust any fish oil, even those that claim they are heavy metal free.

Yes, and Major League Baseball has a satellite collecting data on us... (lol, I just watched that Simpsons episode:) )

If you cannot trust companies that claim their fish oil is free of pollutants (namely mercury), then what can you trust? Do you trust nutritional labels?

There are tons of pollutants out there. Did you know that microwaving food in plastic containers causes it to become contaminated with environmental estrogens that can stay in your body for years, even decades. Did you know that a majority of people have environmental estrogens in their body?
 
Yes I'm taking 3000mg's, not g's,,
I'm worried about the merc in fish oil also. I lived off salmon, really I lived off it for a year while I was in AK.
