Are supps like creatine and metrix really good for you. I keep on hearing that some supps really put a strain on your liver and kidneys and extended use of these supps can pose future problems to one's vital organs. Is this true, or is it a myth?

Most of those studies that have said supplements can cause kidney damage are on patients that already had pre-existing kidneys problems. You should be fine; it'd take an enormous amount of creatine or protein or whatever to cause organ damage.

Does Aspartame cause cancer?


Sure, if you eat 3lbs a day.



A good rule of thumb to followfor supplementation goes like this:
"Dont be an *******"


Follow the directions and you'll be fine.

The directions are placed there so you will have to buy more. It's a sales tactic used by supplement manafacturers For the most part the directions point you in the right direction.

some supps can cause problems if taken in mega doses.

If you take a supplement once you'll get cancer and die

It should cause kidney problems if you don't drink enough water bc nothing moves it through there. Drink 2 gallons a day like I do and you'll be good. Stay away from aspartame. Stay away from prohormones, you don't need to send your testes on vacation.

some foods can cause liver damage and supps are food.

Unless by supplements you mean gear/steriods, the answer is no.

I completely agree with what a few people have already said. Supplements are NOT harmful unless you abuse them. You all know that I am already ready to take whatever comes out. But I NEVER ***** around when I take my supplements. I have never, and will never, up the Xenadrine dosage to 3 Xenadrine instead of 2 or anything even similar. Thats how people abuse supplements. My idiot friends load with creatine for a month straight. One of my friends takes 2 sc oops Cell-Tech while he works out and 2 scoops afterwards every single time he has worked out for the past month or 2. Some people never learn.
