Just got back from browsing a GNC store. Lots of stuff with unrealistic and dubious claims. Any easy methods for separating the real things from the bullshit? Or is it all bullshit?

GET DAT WHEY PROTEIN POWDA
>> Dr. Bill
in GNC anything by Muscletech is pretty much gimmic.

you can always be safe with stuff that dont have*secret* ingredients.

Protein powders.. amino acids... multi vitamins will always be the foundations of good supplements.

stay away from stuff promising get huge, get ripped, get laid...

If youre gonna get protein powder, go with Optimum Nutrition.

24g per scoop instead of 20g from the GNC brand.

Maximuscle supplements are a sure bet for beginners to intermediate weight gainers. I've been on Promax for about 4 months, having been on standard whey for the previous 4, and I'm very pleased with the results.

My rule of thumb when buying sports nutrition products is to never go for anything with a graphic label- which is typically a picture of a grinning bodybuilder. Companies use this visual marketing to create the impression that the product will create the result- the product usually being concentrated green tea. Always read the nutritional information on products as well (Sounds duh, since that's what you're there for, but I've seen these mistakes made)- your standard protein mix could contain about 40% carbs and 40% fat in one scoop.
