Ginseng & Royal Jelly

[englishcrap]

What are thoughts on Ginseng & Royal Jelly supplements. There seems to be a alot of info on the net on it but it appears rather biased.

A friend tells me it gives him a headache after a few days. I tried the pure ginseng capsules for 3 weeks, didnt seem to do anything for me.

Has anyone gained anything from these supplements ?

I usually get immediate energy, increased mental alertness and especially I get more horny. I prefer taking it in tea form rather than in tablets, maybe because the onset of the effect is faster.

English,

You've picked two supps that unfortunately are not very effective. Like most I guess.

Whey is the only supp. as such that everyone agrees (apart from highy trained nutrionists) works.

I feel creatine is good at the end of a cycle, but not a long term supp.

If you really get serious/desperate, get your hands on M1T or 4AD, but be warned, these are very serious supps and you need to research how to use them or your health will suffer.

Alpine,

I appreciate the info on M1T, but I really do not want to go this route. Heard so many horror stories of the side effects of this kind of stuff.

Wise move mate, I think they don't sell it now anyway.

My point was, if you're prepared to, there are some very powerful supps out there, but eating a balanced diet and buying some whey is the sensible choice.

I thought the question revolves only around ginseng and royal jelly.


My primary supplements are whey and creatine (besides my multivit and Flax seed oil).

I used to take Ginseng tablets... didn't notice anything from them, I think you need them raw. What is royal jelly exactly? I've never heard of it, and it doesn't seem to be very popular or well known among fitness and nutrition buffs.

You only have to stand outside GNC to realise how many gullible people there are. And then I go inside
