This diet is really intriguing to me, but I have a few details I would like more information on (maybe more than a few but I'll start slow...)

I haven't seen too many people mention the Supplements he lists off. I noted Salt, Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium Citrate, Ephedrine, Caffeine, and Milk Protein Isolate in addition to a Multi-Vitamin on my read through of the book (thank you for posting btw).

Does everyone use all of these? Where do you get them and what brands are good/reliable? I know this book is a few years old so maybe some of this stuff is harder to get (ephedrine), but I wasn't sure. I've only ever used whey protein and pre & post workouts.

For the record I have read the entire book and every post in this thread because there is great information in both. Reading about your experiences and lessons learned is very helpful to a relative novice like myself. Thank you!

I just add salt to my food. I do not worry about magnesium as I have never felt the need. I take a good multi vitamin from controlled labs and drink there omega reds drink and that covers the vitamins.

For ephedrine, I buy bronkaid from wal greens and just order caffeine from sns from online. But you can get a bunch of the fat burners from hi tech from lockout supplements or A1 supplments that have ephedra and caffeine. ALso they have the new ultimate orange preworkout that is the same as the original but has DMAA added.

for protein I use true nutrition. Not always the easiest on the pallet, but overall the best quality.

For fish oil I like to use a DHA 500 from NOW I order from amazon. GNC has the DHA1000 but my believe is a ratio 2:1 ratio of DHA to EPA is perfect. But both are quality. I take 20g a day.

As far as the protein powder goes, only use if you need to. Whole food will keep you satisfied much longer and will provide much better micro nutrition.
