Poliquin Supplements

coolcanary · 04-07-2008, 11:01 PM

After reading much about them on T Nation I am keen to find a local European source rather than go through all the hassle of paying custom charges and VAT. Does anyone know of where to find them? Preferably here in the UK.

Thanks.

Thanks.

What specifically are you after...?

Most are just fancy dressed versions of what can be found in Holland and Barratt

My mate has got very lean using Poliquin's Fenuplex and fish oil.

I have used maximuscle's fenugreek and solgar's fish oil and only ended up smelling of curry and fish respectively. I also know a few guys in the States who swear by his stuff, so am curious to try out the quality of a few varied products.

Cool, you were using a Maximuscle product, were you expecting much to happen other that your wallet being lighter?

I think the side effect of the Solgar product is to be expected, fish oils aren't going to smell of much else other than fish, I can't see that changing from one manufacturer to another.

The solgar stuff made ME smell of fish oil, so it wasn't simply a case of the product itself smelling. After a week I was giving off a pungent eau de Grimsby.

Solgar stuff is pricey from memory.

Do it if you are that set on it. Don't expect miracles.

Solgar make the best multi vit/min on the market along with Quest..

TBH I usually tell people to just go out and try a supplement and see how *they* react to it and not to 100% rely on other peoples comments as there are always people out there that don`t follow the instructions properly or are eating a crappy diet and then the *supplement* will do a lot less for them if diet is weak..
