The three you actually need.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe supplement aisle sells the gym-goer about forty things. The evidence supports rather fewer. This stack is the short list: one ingredient with genuine performance data behind it, one that covers the hydration most people get wrong, and one for the connective tissue that takes the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCreatine\u003c\/strong\u003e — creatine monohydrate with fructose. The most studied supplement in sports nutrition, and one of very few with an authorised performance claim: creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g. Unflavoured, so it goes in anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrolytes\u003c\/strong\u003e — sodium, potassium and magnesium with vitamin C and B vitamins. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, to normal electrolyte balance, and to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Water alone doesn't replace what you sweat out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolysed Collagen Plus\u003c\/strong\u003e — 8,700mg of type I and III bovine collagen per serving with vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage, bones and skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to run it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCreatine daily, timing doesn't much matter — consistency does. Electrolytes around training or through hot days. Collagen daily. Creatine in particular needs several weeks of consistent use before it's doing its job, so don't judge it on week one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvery amount printed on the label. No proprietary blends.\u003c\/strong\u003e Backed by our 30-day money-back guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFood supplements are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
