Supplements?
 
I never believed in taking supplements etc until a roommate of mine introduced me to the GNC multi vitamins. I thought it was BS but it wouldnt hurt to try. Lost story short, its made a huge difference in my energy level. Its actually noticeable compared to other multivitamins i've tried in the past. He takes other things like flax seed oil, some protein etc. I dont have time to work out lately so im not looking for protein. I dont get many hours of sleep a night (less than 6) and my eating habits are horrible at the moment due to a lack of time. Are there any other supplements that can help boost my energy level? One he recommended was l-glutamine, any info on that one? Most of my searches end up in marketing hype.

As a former manager for a GNC, their vitamins are a rip-off. They do work, they are a great supplement, but this is where I have a problem. The mega-man vitamins retail for 39.99 off the shelf, but do you know how much the store actually pays for them? Less than 3 bucks.

I buy all my stuff at www.bulknutrition.com fwiw

Multi-Vitamins are a must IMO for everyone.

I take a LOT more than that though, I spent $1000 just last week :)

The best way is to have good sleep hygeine, and exercise. If you find yourself busy, don't nap during the day, and try to squeeze in 30 min of exercise a day. You'll find yourself feeling more alert, fit, and not to mention the health benefits. Sticking to a routine, you will likely get a very restful6 hours sleep each night which is sufficient for most.

Wow, that's really interesting about GNC vitamins. I guess it's good to know that they are good vitamins but there isn't much you can do about the price. I would assume that most retail vitamins have the same mark-up.
