99% of supplements are just bullshit in pill form. Also, I think it's a requirement to have an IQ below 75 to work at GNC.
The supplements you must take:
Daily multivitamin pill - just to cover all bases in case your diet is lacking in a certain vitamin
Fish Oil Tablets or Flax Seed - The standard American diet is extremely lacking in Omega-3 fatty acids. Flax seed and fish oil tablets help a lot
The supplements that are optional:
Whey/Soy protein - put in a shake if you aren't getting enough protein in your diet. If you want to bulk up you should be getting at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.
Creatine - haven't used it, but I heard it works. Obviously, do some research.
The supplements that are crap:
Pretty much everything else. Stuff like Muscle Milk will help build muscle, but it's just milk, sugar, carbs, flavoring, and a huge sticker price. Stuff like Acai berry pills are generally pretty harmless, but they won't help you lose weight at all, so you're wasting your money. Stuff like Hydroxycut will not only waste your money but also give you liver failure.
