For what use?

lifting/test related supps:

Zinc
magnesium
vit D
creatine
whey protein/isolate if you lack protein in your daily intake
dextrose or sugar during/after gym
multivit cant really hurt for the few cents you pay daily.

Sleep/anti cortisol:

melatonin
ashwagandha
st johns wort
valerian root extract

Creatine
It gives you a bit of an edge when it comes to lifting, and gives you a kick in hiit.
You get swole you get a few more reps you get a few more seconds.
Problem is that it leads to bald, it gives slight ED, and if you do any kind of dehydration anything it can kill you.

Vitamins?
Vit D
Vit B complex
Vit C can megadose this one

Zinc can be used to boost test, seminal volume, and it acts as a natural AI in high doses.

Ashwagandha will boost test and lowers cortisol through the floor. It actually does what people claim weed does. But without getting you high.
HOWEVER you'll be so "I don't really give a fuck" that you don't want to do anything and not even fresh hot pussy right there in your face will be able to break your chill and make you want to fuck. So...be advised. Oh and if you have low blood sugar problems or thyroid issues watch out. Oh and it will enhance painkillers and alcoholic effects. It just makes you get super fucked up on almost anything.

Boron is just..it makes everything better. On every level. Buy 50 mule borax. Make sure they did't put anything in it.

Horny goat weed works. It works on the same pathway that viagra works on. It boosts test in men and it boosts estrogen in women.

Maca will boost arousal levels. It will also make you fat. It embiggens women's secondary sexual characteristics.

Yohimbe will give you wood.
Also, you know those stubborn fat areas on your body? Yeah, yohimbe makes your body unass the fat out of those areas. It works brilliantly.

L-arginine makes your body produce more nitrogen. It makes you feel better and makes you more vascular and go harder.
It also makes you go harder and cum harder.

Tong Kat Ali/long jack is an actual fucking test booster .
You can feel it, good tong kat, working in less then 30 minutes.

Valerian root will actually put your ass to sleep. It's a calming chill herb that makes you sleepy.

Magnesium is a much needed mineral. Find a good version of it.

theacrine is best, but it's hard to get, also don't take it if you are an aggressive person

'Vitamin' D, creatine and whey protein are the best supplements for basically everyone. You can skip the whey if you eat a massive amount of animal products (meat, dairy, eggs) and you don't need Vitamin D if you live at a low enough latitude and spend a lot of time outdoors.

Amino acids which have been shown to help with muscle gain / retention:
Beta alanine and citrulline malate both boost performance and increase muscle growth if taken about 30 minutes before exercise. Probably best to use them while you are already fed to avoid them being used for energy and then follow them up with carbs right before the exercise and complete protein right after.
Leucine and HMB both trigger muscle protein synthesis and help preserve muscle mass while cutting. Best effects seem to be to take them a little while before having a large meal of complete protein and while 'fueled' with carbs so they don't get scavenged for energy.

Other than those, you need to make sure you get enough electrolytes; I recommend low-sodium salt (sodium chloride and potassium chloride), magnesium malate, and either zinc citrate or zinc picolinate.

If you suffer from depression you should generally use prescribed antidepressants, but if for some reason you are unable to, 5-HTP is probably the best alternative. Don't stack it with anything else which messes with serotonin, such as St. John's Wort.

cinnamon extract too if you are on low carb diets, good post.

Best sups to be less autistic?

>creatine
actually does something, though has nothing to do with testosterone. boosts DHT, but that hormone has little to do with muscle-building IIRC.

>vitamins, magnesium
waste of time if you eat a varied diet, especially fruits, veggies, and nuts. a lot of people underestimate how much vegetables they should be eating though. there's no evidence that magnesium boosts testosterone either.

>high-dose zinc
you shouldn't be doing this. zinc is good if you're deficient only.

>ashwagandha
actually good and has plenty of studies supporting this. choose KSM-66 over Sensoril, former is more for physical health and the latter is more for anti-anxiety. it's not that extreme for everyone. it should go without saying that with supplements that actually do shit, YMMV.

>boron
expensive and limited research. may actually boost estrogen instead lol.

>horny goat weed
might work. limited research and unknown mechanism. also increases estrogen in menopausal women. might just be an alpha reductase inhibitor (reduces DHT to boost free test).

>maca
no evidence it impacts anything hormonal except possibly increase estrogen.

>yohimbe
a stimulant, like potent coffee. be careful, not for the faint hearted.

>l-arginine
good for pump, but whether that's important is still debatable

>Tong Kat Ali/long jack is an actual fucking test booster
agreed, but evidence is somewhat lacking, mechanism is still unknown. personally, I didn't feel shit from this. definitely not anti-estrogenic, so take something to block aromatase too.

>Valerian root
it's also pro-estrogenic. try chamomile tea, which has apigenin. blocks aromatase, enhances rate-limiting step in test production, and has other anti-estrogenic properties. good for relaxation too.

Creatine works, I enjoy it mostly for it's recovery benefits.

Zinc works good for AI and small test increase.

Whey protein iso. Is nessesary.

Multi Vita, probably small effects though why not

Nearly every test boosters out there is BS and a waste of money. You'd get better results putting the insane amount of money that stuff costs on actual gear. Yes some work incrediblely well at increasing libidio, which can transfer over to better aggression which can lead to more gains. However, actual base test going up? Not gonna happen, or not enough for it to justify the cost.

The way I see it, if your supplement doesn't do more than just "boost test", or if your supplement tries to boost test by reducing test-->DHT conversion, then you shouldn't pick it up.
