I'm a 33-year-old male, and I'm trying to figure out if it's okay for me to start taking workout supplements to help get in better shape. My blood pressure is usually around 11773, and my heart rate sits around 75. I want to lose some weight and hit the gym more seriously. Do you think supplements would be a good idea for me?

You can consider taking a pre-workout supplement to enhance your workout performance. One option is Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Pre-Workout, which can be taken 20-30 minutes before exercise. The recommended dosage is 1 scoop mixed with water. This supplement can help increase energy, focus, and endurance during your workout. Remember to stay hydrated and follow the recommended dosage instructions.

View allI'm really worried about this pain I've been having. I fell on my left side while trying to stop a cricket ball, and now I'm feeling a lot of pain near my lower left rib cage, especially when I'm moving around, walking, or even just turning in my sleep. It's been about 5 days now, and I'm getting concerned that I might have injured my spleen or if it's just a muscle tear. Could you shed some light on what this might be?
It sounds like you may have strained the muscles around your lower left rib cage, especially since the pain worsens with movement. While a spleen injury could cause pain in the area, its less likely unless there's significant trauma, such as a direct blow. If the pain persists or worsens, its best to consult a doctor for an evaluation.

I'm a bodybuilder and I've been taking 1 Liv 52 DS daily to detox my liver from orals. I'm just wondering if it's okay to take Liv 52 DS every day for a whole year. If it's not recommended, how long should I take a break before starting again?
Taking Liv 52 DS for liver detoxification is generally safe for long-term use. However, it is recommended to take breaks to allow your body to function without the supplement. You can take Liv 52 DS for 2-3 months continuously, then take a break for 1 month before resuming. This cycle can be repeated as needed for liver support.
