Fitness supplements: what works and what's a waste

The supplement industry is built on marketing. We break down the very few products that actually have evidence behind them.

The Essentials

Whey protein (for convenience) and Creatine Monohydrate (for strength) are the two most researched and effective supplements.

Frequently asked questions

Is Creatine safe for kidneys?

In healthy individuals, yes. It's the most studied supplement in history.

Can I get all protein from food?

Absolutely. Whey is just 'powdered milk' for when you're busy.
