Question: What are the best vitamins and herbal supplements for building muscles and physical strength? I know these days with the busiest of schedules it is very difficult to work up to anything greater than a meager muscle. With that said not taking vitamins and herbs can be considered a fight against the workout. With the helping hand of vitamins and herbs what are the best to take for building muscles and physical strength? Also, please don't say that Mormons aren't allowed to build muscles because I always get that and it seems that there is a precedent for everything in Mormon doctrine. I therefore ask this question as a human being and not from a Mormon perspective.

Answer: Taking care of your body through the proper exercise, a well-balanced diet and a stress-free mind all contribute greatly towards keeping healthy and building a good set of muscles. Vitamins - Additional supplementation may be necessary to reach optimal levels of antioxidants, including vitamins A, C (ascorbic acid), and E. Aim for 1,000 mg of C, 200 to 400 mg of E, and 10,000 IU of A (best in the form of beta-carotene). Bodybuilding requires the most protein, sometimes as much as 300 g per day, which is difficult to manage through meals alone. (The body can only absorb about 35 g at one meal.) So bodybuilders and athletes who need to rebuild muscles after intensive training often turn to protein supplements, especially whey protein. Virtually fat-free, whey protein provides immune system support as well as essential muscle-building amino acids. Improved performance means more energy and endurance, and that translates into a diet that provides complex carbohydrates w brown rice, whole wheat, oatmeal, unrefined flours, and fruits and vegetables. Carbohydrate supplements are available in a variety of forms, including bars, powders, and gels. For best results, consume high-carb supplements about an hour before working out. Herbal boosters- Siberian ginseng One of the most popular non-herbal supplements in the athletic arena is creatine, a natural occurring amino acid produced by the kidneys and liver which is stored in the muscle cells as creatine phosphate or phosphocreatine. Pyruvate, a metabolic compound that's also found in red wine, cheese, and red apples, has more than 25 years of research to back up its claims as a fat burner that also creates lean muscle mass and increases endurance by as much as 20 percent. L-glutamine. The most commonly occurring amino acid in muscle tissue is L-glutamine. Exercise increases our need for glutamine - especially heavy-resistance weight training -- and supplements have been found to build muscle mass and help with loss of body fat. Dosage recommendations vary widely, so follow the directions on the product you purchase.

Answer: You dont need vitamins. Eat whole grains, nuts, seeds, beans, veggies, dark leafy greens and you will get what you need.

Question: What are the best vitamins to take for increasing thyroid? My husband has a low thyroid and we were wondering what kind of natural vitamins are best for increasing it. Thanks!

Answer: The thyroid hormone molecule hasTyrosine (an amino acid which you can buy OTC) at the centre with 4 iodine atoms hanging off that. A shorthand for this arrangement is T4. You can think of T4 more as your body's reservoir of thyroid hormone. If treated, this is what you are given, usually in a synthetic form. When it's needed, the body then knocks an iodine off to make T3, which is the really active form. The enzyme that does this neat trick needs Selenium, and is poisoned by Mercury. You say you want something natural. Did you know that there is a natural thyroid supplement, called Armour Thyroid? It contains T4 and T3, in the human body's required ratio of about 4 to 1. It's made in a standardised form from desiccated pig thyroid gland. Don't be alarmed! It's available on prescription in the US. I am in the UK and get a prescription for it, but I have to send that to a particular pharmacist who imports it from the US. But it was a long journey to get outside the usual box of synthetic hormone replacement. Try the website in sources below for information. If your husband has tested low and a doctor is convinced he needs hormone replacement, but you would rather do natural things, he may be lower than mere supplements can reach. I have to say that although I tried all these things, and in theory they should work, since they meet the body's need for thyroid building blocks, I was still not well enough and needed the actual hormone. But everyone is different. So you could try Tyrosine (say 500mg/day), Iodine (you can take too much iodine - be careful. Kelp is a good source of natural iodine, to give you say 150micrograms iodine per day, I think), Selenium (say 200 micrograms per day) and keep your teeth free of mercury fillings if you can, and try to avoid contaminated fish (while still having enough omega3 oils of course!). Read any labels carefully regarding dose. I checked my supplies for all but the Kelp, which is not in the cupboard for some reason, but I think it's 150micrograms This information is not intended to diagnose or treat any condition. You should always consult a qualified physician. Unfortunately I have to say that! This is a contentious subject. There are herbs that help too, but off the top of my head I can't remember them. Good luck

Question: What is the best vitamins to take for Endometriosis? I have endometriosis and I am tired most of the time so, I was just wondering what would be the best vitamins to take for those suffering from it?

Answer: B vitamins are especially good for women with endo. I asked my doctor about this one time and she mentioned that women with endo need to have B vitamins. I can't remember the amount of mg per day but I got a bottle of B Complex and I have found that to be helpful. I get mine at The Vitamin Shoppe. Some women also take herbs like Evening Primrose Oil to help with their endo as well. I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

Question: What are the best Vitamins to take during pregnancy? My best mate recently became pregnant and I'm looking for a useful congratulations present. Vitamins seem to be the thing for new mums but having had a look around the web I'm a little overwhelmed by the options - any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Answer: She needs to be on prenatal vitamins, they can be prescribed or over the counter. Prescribed ones tend to be more nutritionally complete, and have lots of extra minerals in them. Over the counter vitamins can be good as well just look for these general guidelines in the info on the label * 4,000 and 5,000 IU (international units) of vitamin A * 800 and 1,000 mcg (1 mg) of folic acid * 400 IU of vitamin D * 200 to 300 mg of calcium * 70 mg of vitamin C * 1.5 mg of thiamine * 1.6 mg of riboflavin * 2.6 mg of pyridoxine * 17 mg of niacinamide * 2.2 mcg of vitamin B12 * 10 mg of vitamin E * 15 mg of zinc * 30 mg of iron

Question: As a 22 year old female, what are the best vitamins to take for complexion and energy? I have tried the One a Day Green tea vitamins, but they make me feel like I am going to throw them back up! What are the best vitamins to take?

Answer: Beachlov, There are so many different choices out there, what you need as far as a vitamine is concerned is a water soluble one which if taken right should be taken one with each meal, the reason one a day vitamines do not work so well is because they pass through the body before they are used up completely. For healthier skin and energy you need to look at the whole body and it needs to be fed on a cellular level, I would recommend that you do a supplemental program that would feed the whole body and not just part. There are a number of products out there that are good, but for me I use Herbalife, the reason for my recommendation is that I have found that the products are of the highest quality and that Herbalife is one of the oldest companies on the market today in the area of wellness and weight management. They also have a superb skin care line that works with the cellular level of the outer body. I wish you the best here is the website, I recommend that you look at there shapeworks program for the cellular nutrition that I mentioned and that you look at their Nourfusion product line for your outer body nutrition. http://www.shopherbalife.com/healthysolutions if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Question: What are the best vitamins a 21 year old male in college can take? What is the significance of each vitamin? I'm in college and always feel tired, unmotivated, cannot concentrate etc....what are the best vitamins for me to take?

Answer: A great multivitamin is Super Nutrition "Simply One for Men" if you want a good basic coverage for vitamin and mineral needs. A multivitamin is not meant to give you energy, they are meant to help discourage the development of deficiencies. A multivitamin really won't even make up for deficiencies you acquire before you start taking it. [Multivitamin brands that advertise enhanced energy usually contain hidden caffeine that will end up making you more tired and stressed]. The one I mentioned above includes organic greens and herbs that can support energy if your diet is in line, but no caffeine. Other good mens' multivitamins are Enzymatic Therapy Men's (that's 4 x day) or Rainbow Light Men's One Daily. If you have a weak tummy or don't like to take your vitamins with food try Megafood's One Daily which is made from food and can be popped any time. Also, there are hundreds of nutrients in foods and supplements so that this would be a 600-page book if we went through them all, along with their significance. Occasionally you can find a simple table that assigns a benefit to each vitamin A-Z, but that's almost useless as our bodies' are very complicated and each nutrient serves multiple purposes depending on the metabolisation, or delivery method, or source of the vitamin. Important for energy: protein, all B vitamins, greens/chlorophyll. Important for concentration: same as above, and also fats like fish oil, flax oil, or omega 3s in some form, and extra B12 with your B vitamins. A weird one to check out: lion's mane mushroom. Very cool stuff. Good luck!

Question: What are the best vitamins for a 18-year old make to take?

PS Are they any vitamins I can take to help reduce kidney stones? * What I ment to say is are they any vitamins to help reduce GETTING a kidney stone?

Answer: Your 18, why are you so worried about popping vitamin pills? If you stick to a healthy diet you should have no problems! Lots of Green veggies & juice will see you fit. If you really do want to take vitamin tablets just take an all in one multi vitamin tablet once a week. Why waste money on all those pills though - most of them are just placebos anyway. I dont know much about the kidney stones, I would ask your doctor if you are worried.

Question: What are the best vitamins for fast hair growth? I know the basics for hair growth, as in getting it cut etc. but when it comes down to vitamins, which should I take for the best results for hair growth?

Answer: vitamins B, B12 C and E are all good for your hair. Prenatal vitamins contain some of the vitamins required fror your hair but their main ingredients don't do that much for your hair. hair supplements contain all the vitamins you need including biotin and proteins as well, since hair is mainly protein this helps hair growth a lot. Cutting your hair short makes no difference at all all for hair growth. Since hair grows from the follicles or roots hair growth has no relationship to the length of your hair.

Question: What is the best vitamins for increasing my husbands sperms? What is the best vitamins for increasing my husbands sperms

Answer: from: http://ca.askmen.com/love/love_tip_200/232b_love_tip.html http://www.jackinworld.com/qa/qasem.html A lot of guys would love it if they could make like one of the characters in Scary Movie and ejaculate so much that they plaster their girlfriends against the ceiling. And although that won't likely be happening anytime soon, it's believed that wheat germ increases seminal output. Bon appétit. (Butter's note: I only tried it once and it thickened my load like I've rarely seen before. Eat with oatmeal for better results) Amino acids are believed to increase ejaculate fluid (not the amount of actual sperm necessarily) if taken regularly. Some amino acids include: L-ARGININE HCL Studies show sperm and semen volume doubles, fertility improves (even among men with low sperm counts or poor sperm motility), and sperm health and activity increase with supplementation. Arginine is found in high concentrations in nuts and seeds like peanuts and almonds. It can also be found in chocolate and raisins. Some Natural Sources: Nuts, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, chocolate, popcorn, raisins, brown rice, carob, gelatin desserts, oatmeal, whole wheat bread, and protein rich foods. L-LYSINE Researchers find that this amino acids plus zinc increases sperm produced, stimulates testosterone production, and improves semen quality. EPIMEDIUM SAGITTATUM Sometimes called "horny goat weed," this botanical boosts libido and testosterone levels for greater sperm production for a strong ejaculation. ZINC OXIDE Has been shown to increase number of sperm and sperm motility by 80% to 200% by aiding testosterone synthesis. L-CARNITINE This amino acid is found in high concentrations in healthy sperm. Proven to significantly increase the percentage of highly motile sperm. CATUABA BARK Brazilian herb that strengthens the libido, and nourishes the entire male reproductive system. PUMPKIN SEED Supports prostate health and hormonal production. While they may not readily increase sperm volume, they do enhance prostate health and testosterone production. MACA Legendary South American botanical proven to promote libido, potency and energy. Ginseng Y ohimbe bark Vitamin C, E Magnesium (Butter's note: Lecithin added daily increases amount, not thickness) Zinc has been shown to improve both the amount of sperm you produce and the sperm's ability to move spontaneously and independently. Coupled with amino acids (see above), this will increase sperm volume significantly. (Butter's note: Not as miraculous as they make it sound, but regular zinc intake (50mgs a day) does increase quantity somewhat.) Whatever a pill company's claims are, you can probably do just as well with zinc and lecithin supplements. (Use zinc supplements in moderation; too much zinc intake can be dangerous.) For some guys, these nutrients do have a noticeable effect on ejaculation volume, and they're a lot cheaper and easier to get. In general, stay away from mail-order pills sold by less-than-reputable companies; you really don't know what's in them, and their claims are almost always untrue or at least greatly exaggerated. PC Exercises: While Kegel exercises can help you last longer, they can also aid in increasing sperm volume. There are a host of exercises you can do to keep your penis in great shape and shoot like a champion. (Butter's note: PC muscle exercises have proven to help reduce prostate troubles in advancing age, but I have yet to see improvements in my ejaculate's volume through this method) Frequency of sexual activity also contributes to volume -- although only to a certain degree. If you abstain for a day or two, you'll certainly produce more sperm than you would ejaculating every few hours. But any longer than this one- to two-day timeframe, and you won't see much of a difference, as semen reservoirs will have stopped building up a supply. (Butter's note: True, the body will evacuate excess semen through urine & etc. so abstinence over 3 or 4 days will not continue increase of quantity. Usually, 2 or 3 days should be enough to reach maximum potential... but there are exceptions!) And for those of you who wrote in asking if semen is a good source of protein, its protein content is roughly equivalent to that found in the egg white of a large egg. So you're probably best off sticking with the eggs. Consistency of semen isn't very consistent; you've probably noticed that the thickness of your ejaculate can vary from day to day. This is because the quality of the fluid is very susceptible to a number of factors. Diet, exercise and frequency of sex can all dictate how thick or watery your emissions are, as can the tightness of the clothes that you wear (tight clothing will increase body temperature and can thus impact sperm motility. While there is a lack of supporting scientific evidence, a number of ingredients are said to help thicken up semen. Because of their protein content, egg whites and gelatin are often recommended. Wheat germ, omega-3 oils, selenium, and zinc are all also believed to improve consistency. (Butter's note: Tomato-based products, soy-based products, oatmeal, and celery have also proven to help thicken the load, at least in my case!) Vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and essential fatty acids are found in the prostate in high levels, and are all necessary to produce semen. Low zinc levels have been connected to decreased production of seminal fluids, as well as lower testosterone levels. A healthy balance of nutrients is important for maintaining vascular health as well, which improves your ability to achieve and maintain erections. There isn't a need to go popping extra vitamins if you are already eating a diet rich in nutrients, particulary from fruits and vegetables. Essential fatty acids are found in certain kinds of fish (like salmon) and nuts. Celery is one of food products known to have great properties for sexual stimulation. It contains androsterone, an odor free hormone which is very inviting for women. Raw celery is the best way to increase that desire. Oysters are rich in zinc and are know to increase sperm and testosterone production. It contains dopamine which increases the sexual desire. Bananas, Avocado and Almond or other nuts are some of the other food products which help in this matter. from http://www.hotlib.com/articles/show.php?t=Increase_Sperm_Count:_10_Ways_you_can_Increase_Your_Sperm_Count 10 Ways you can increase Your sperm count: 1. Have sex & masturbate less often - the more times you ejaculate, the less dense your semen will be. Maintain a gap of 3 days between two consecutive ejaculations. 2.

Question: what vitamins work best for hair and skin? I know no vitamins will make ur hair grow faster, but i am in the process of growing my hair out and would like it to be healthy as a result. im also trying to make my skin look better as well. what is the best vitamin/vitamins for these?

Answer: Multi-Vitamin daily Biotin(2,500 mgs)daily Omega 3,6&9 Complex daily Hair/skin/nail Formula daily This is the best combo,and it is safe,Biotin is water soluble,meaning anything your body does not use will be expelled via the urine. Omega(paticularly 3)(fish oil),is something that is needed in the body,our bodies can NOT manufacture it on it's own,it must be consumed through diet,and the 6&9 in addition are wonderful for skin/hair/nails as well. Vitamins also work in synergy,meaning that some will not be absorbed properly(or at all)without the addition of others,so that's the importance of the multi-vitamin. And the HSN Formula is just a "boost" in addition to the rest.
