It's not expensive and if you want to try it maybe take 1 a day. Seems the dudes who reported a slight decrease were taking it 3 or more times.Some people cycle it too and that's probably a good idea to test whether there is a noticeable difference. You know how these things are Makk- the intersection of diet, individual body chemistry and metabolism differences are always wild cards with supplements.

Hasn't hurt my libido (I take it 2x a day with my bigger meals) but I have girl parts so.....

Let me know how it works for you sir!
yeah basically the most detailed report of libido issues was a male who said when his bf was below 10% he saw libido impact but not substantial and when it was over 10% no probs at all. I ordered some Scivation liquid capsules. Its supposed to actually hype up ketone production in the liver so this can boost my ketogenic cutting. Yeah your girl parts should remain just fine

Yeah I saw that the article you posted or some others mentioned cycling 1-2 months at a time which should fit about right with my intended bulking and cutting.

I will definitely let you know how it goes. I'm really amped on herbal/natural supps now since I've seen them defeat serious medical prescription drugs. I know that all won't have this success but it has made me more open to trying new things.

I'm glad you got your cholesterol in check. I had some fatty liver issues last year from a seriously poor diet but that has disappeared.

(you ever try nike+?)

It's always so good to hear about peoples health turning around from improved diet and exercise! Pharmaceuticals should really be a last resort Food is medicine- cliche, but true. Congrats! I take the Scivation Sesamin too.

I still have to try that Nike+!

I know its kindof a cliche that eating right is the answer but I just never have seen herbal supps actually work better and faster than pharmaceuticals for somewhat serious conditions before this so Im still in shock. I just bought supplies of that stinging nettle and quercetin for some friends to try. Im waiting on ups to drop that scivation on me right now.

I bought some nike torches which are in the + group but I just hate them so I have to take em back. I wanted to try it out but I might just go with that shoelace attachment rather than the nikes.

Re: What kind of vitamin do you take?

I took ALIVE! Whole Foods Energizer with Iron a few months ago.
That product was no joke.

It's body absorption was quick.
And I did get a major boost.
Went to the bathroom a lot too though.

I'm going back to it as soon as I finish my Trader Joe's Super Crusade Multis.

Re: What kind of vitamin do you take?

I'm currently taking Centrum, but I'm going to start going all organic and using Spirulina. Everything the body needs can be found in organic foods in larger servings (per mg and g) than the chemical supplements or fortified foods.

Re: What kind of vitamin do you take?

Every African American ought to take some vitamin D (not synthetic D2, but D3). Low vitamin D consumption (due to diet or having pigmented skin, which reduces absorption of vitamin D from the sun) makes you susceptible to A LOT of problems. Put it on your list, fam.

Re: What kind of vitamin do you take?

I've been deciding on whether I should purchase Alive or Opti Men.

I think I may go with Alive.

Re: What kind of vitamin do you take?

Just a quick fyi on Centrum, the dye they use for their multi-v is not good for your system,but unfortunately they wont give you this info =( Another note the vitamin doesn't dissolve completely;do a test yourself put a Centrum in water & watch it turn into a sandy rocky substance,its expensive pee=)
