A member asked:

What are common supplements that i can take to help muscle growth or weight loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why: You can take them, but they won't help either condition. Only diet, exercise and weight loss will do both. Why take something when you don't even know what it is? Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet.
