Supplements have grown in popularity over the past few decades. Nearly everyone takes some kind of supplement whether that's a multi-vitamin, fish oil or protein drink.
Supplementation is designed to 'fill the gaps' in your daily nutritional needs, not be the most important part of your diet. That means eating nutrient dense foods with the appropriate calorie amount for your activity level is most important.
With that said, this book includes several high grade, properly tested supplements used by elite athletes all over the world. These stacks are recommended to ensure that there are no gaps in your general health plan. Remember, you do not need to use all of the listed supplement stacks.
