What supplements should a runner be taking everyday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The best...: ..."supplement" is not a supplement at all. Eat a good diet with a lot of protein and a large variety of vegetables. Drink lots of water every day. Beyond that, the only supplement i would recommend would be vitamin d. Unless you live in a tropic/equatorial region, you likely will need vitamin d.
