Big Body Building Tips

Never in the history of the world have women spent so much money on dietary supplements. And this makes sense since rates of obesity are on the rise with no sign of slow down.

Unfortunately, the supplement industry is highly unregulated so you have to be really careful.

So here is a guide to supplements for women:

1. Flintstone pills: More is not better here. If you are going to take a multivitamin, make sure it has no more than one hundred percent daily value for any single nutrient. You see, if you overdose on nutrients you can reach toxic levels and you can also block the absorption of other nutrients.

2. Antioxidants: From whole food sources, antioxidants can save your life. However, when taken in highly concentrated pill form they can actually increase death rates. Even worse, Harvard researchers claim that too much folic acid is contributing to colon polyps.

3. Calcium: Calcium is vitally important for women, especially when menopause hits. You see, estrogen has a bone protective effect. And once estrogen decreases, rates of fracture increase in women. Now the problem here is that taking calcium in concentrated forms increases risk for stones.

4. Vitamin D: This is the one supplement that many authorities are recommending to take in supplement form. The problem here is that it’s very hard to get it in its natural form with sunshine. Modern day people simply do not spend enough time outside.

5. Whey protein: Combined with a little glucose, whey protein makes for a great post workout meal. The problem here is that most natural whey protein on the market is loaded with artificial sweeteners. So make sure you choose a brand with no fillers.

6. Stimulants: Most notably, caffeine is the king of stimulants. And it can help when it’s not abused. So make sure you desensitize your system to caffeine and slowly increase your intake right before training so that you can push yourself harder for longer.

The female frame has not changed much in the past hundred thousand years. And it will always do a better job at extracting nutrition from whole foods rather than supplements!
