I'm taking glucosamine and rhodiola for just general stuff. I'm also taking whey protein made by body fortress. It has 16.5 grams of protein per serving and at the moment i take one serving after being to the gym. Should i be taking this more often and when? Also is there anything else i could be taking that will make a difference? Would be grateful for any advice on this as I'm so confused by it all.

People spend so much time searching for supplements that may give them some sort of edge. That time is much better spent analyzing their diets to see where they can get get the proper nutrition from whole foods. Whey protein is fine immediately after a workout. Just make sure you're eating a good meal soon after you workout. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."
