question about supps and Houston buyers club
Apr 10, 2004

What a great website this is. Thanks for the info. I wanted to ask. 1. Should I assume all the products are good on this site? 2. What brands do you recommend for digestive enzymes, Glutamine, Acetyl carnitine, coenzyme, formulas to increase lean body mass? I am on depo testost. 1 injection a week and its working great on me right now.but I cant get rid of the fat on the sides and lower back. Also..do you recommend Crysin?(not sure If spelled it correctly) to block the Estrogen? Thanks Nelson..Hope youre having a great weekend. I was on my way to GNC for the 20% off week..ha ha..but ill order from Houston instead.

Response from Mr. Vergel

The Houston Buyers Club, like all others in the country, tries their best to purchase products from reputable companies. But they lack any funding for testing of the products, so there is always a chance that you may not be getting 100% of the ingredients. I usually buy the brands that have the lowest cost per milligram (ask them about that ratio since they have it for every product). Jarrow, Super Nutrition, EAS, NOW, Enzymatic Therapies, Hymalaya and others so far seem to be doing a good job. I do not believe in Crysin for estrogen block. Why would you want to take an estrogen blocker unless you have breast enlargement or lots of water retenton? Estrogen is also very important for sexual function and skin/hair health. Keep supporting the buyers clubs!
