Do I take too many supplements? help - 18 November 2009 19:24
I have been boxing for 10 years and train extremely hard and push my body, I do complete also as an amateur boxer with over 80 bouts.

For the last 3/4 years I have been taking 5 lots of supplements every morning, basically without fail.

I take:
1x general health a-z vitamin
1x cod liver oil (omega 3 with vit a,d+e)
1x 1000mg glucosamine
1x calcium
1x Redoxon (vitamin c)

I use to get ill a lot but my immune system has really strengthened over the last year or so, I am writing to ask whether you think I am taking too many supplements, or is this ok? Please advise with as much info as possible, thanks

If you feel its working mate stick with it.
 
I would want to see you diet before I made a comment on whether or not you are taking too many sups.

that looks ok

remember, however, that supplements should only SUPPLEMENT a good diet, one that contains all the necesary nutrients, vitamins and minerals etc
