Supplements Recommended by Doctors

I have, in addition to HIV, muscular dystrophy. My muscular deterioration is severe, and I use a walker to ambulate (And I used to leg press 450 pounds)

My doctor recommends a supplement, creatine.

Unfortunately, in 1994, Congress passed a law divesting the FDA of jurisdiction to regulate supplements. Therefore, some supplements don't contain what they say they contain -- and I don't have the money and time to hire a lab to analyze the product.

DO YOU KNOW A DRUG COMPANY WHOSE CREATINE I CAN TRUST. WHICH MANUFACTURERS OF SUPPLEMENTS DO YOU TRUST.

  1. Hi . I can't personally speak to any particular supplement and I need to note that we are not medical professionals and, for your protection, cannot provide medical advice. You may want to search for ratings on purity from trusted publications. Also, hopefully others will chime in with their experiences. I know others have mentioned issues with creatine levels - I just didn't find any mentions of particular products. Best, Richard (Team Member)
