Why I Love It:
It feels good to do something healthy for myself to promote healthy living or hopefully longer life. Also, it really feels good to workout hard & break a sweat. Awesome feeling when done. I sleep better too. Feel accomplished. Keeping the dream alive!! = )

It is very confusing and overwhelming to research all the products out there. What is necessary for women's overall fitness health and to aid in accomplishing a fitness goal. As far as vitamins and suppliments - why? and when to take? Also, Is Creatine and Glutamine good for women to...
Hi,
I would recommend a few supplements -
omega oil (pharmaceutical grade, I like Ascenta NutraSea), a multivitamin (Life Extension carries good products, and Now Foods), a protein isolate (I like natural ones like AllMax IsoNatural or Now Foods Natural). For females, you may have water retention and this can be controlled with dandelion root, uva ursi, and a few others.
I recommend a high fiber and high protein diet with low glycemic index carbs.
Hope that helps a bit,
Eric
