Mad respect.

Regarding Supplementation,

One should understand that Supplements are to "supplement" your natural diet and not "replace" them. Supplements don't give you any extra edge, it just provides you with extra "convenience"

I'll explain when supplements come in handy.

According to your bodyweight and training goals, suppose you're aiming 150-200 gms of protein per day. Frankly speaking, 500 gms of chicken, a litre of milk and 10 big eggs does it. But let's consider the following scenarios:

1. You have a very small appetite. And if you start eating that much all of a sudden, you'll probably spend half the day sitting on the can. Protein shakes come in handy over here. You can get half the protein content by drinking just four protein shakes.

2. You have a busy schedule which makes you stay out of home more than half the day, whether in office or school or college. You can't expect to eat 250 gms of chicken or 5 eggs during a break. It's not only time consuming but might also be embarrassing. Gulping down a protein shake from a shaker is a matter of less than a minute and it's not eye catching too.

3. You'd probably need to eat 10's of different vegetables or fruits to meet the daily requirements of vitamins and minerals. You can simply gulp down a capsule in it's place. It's just way more convenient.

4. Vegans face a very big challenge when it comes to meeting the daily protein requirement while keeping carbs and fats in check. Plus getting Class A proteins is tough for them. Whey is a good source for them at least.

Anyways, the bottom line is, it's not absolutely necessary to use supplements for bodybuilding or powerlifting or even staying healthy, but it sure makes it way more convenient. One should consider the usage of supplements purely based on their own financial condition, lifestyle, appetite and finally fitness goals.

I hope it clears out the entire confusion and debate regarding the whole "supplement" issue
