I only take 2 supplements pre-workout (before I eat).

1) Creatine monohydrate (5 grams per day)
2) Gut Repair (5 grams per day)

Creatine helps with:
1) Improving exercise performance
2) Recovery
3) Increasing lean muscle
4) Preventing injury
5) Reduce dehydration and cramping

Hi. My name is Phil. I can't say I'm a super fit person. That wouldn't be true. But I do exercise 4 to 6 days a week. I try hard. My diet is improving. And I am leaning up, which I am happy with.

As research/science nerd, I do a lot of research on what I need and what I don't. Years ago, I took all sorts of supplements pre- and post- workout. Now, I only take a few supplements that are proven to work when taken in the right doses. I have cut everything else. If it doesn't significantly do something to help me I don't buy it.

Let me also say, "intense exercise" is intense (like 60 minutes of vigorous training at 70% of maximum work capacity), not mild to moderate. (2)

I may not even need Glutamine, but I am very concerned about nutrient absorption and my gut health so I take Glutamine as part of a preventative plan for gut issues. As you may know, gut barrier health is a HUGE part of gut health (only right behind restoring microbial balance in importance).

For those of you really going hard with your workouts, Gut Repair is for you.

For those of you concerned with gut barrier issues, Gut Repair is for you too.

The great thing about Gut Repair is that it isn't very expensive: $20.79. We handed glutamine to our science team and they "souped- it-up." They added additional essentials to make certain that it was grounded in gut barrier support. *
