I am currently Berocca's biggest fan. A multivitamin/mineral tablet, it contains vitamin C, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folacin, vitamin B12, biotin, pantothenic acid, calcium, magnesium and zinc, with vitamins B and C in particularly high doses. For me this has improved everything from my morning wakefulness (from abysmal to terrible) to my complexion and I look forward to my dose every day. While most people don't need these extra vitamins as such if they have a normal diet, almost anyone will benefit from them and you'll find you just feel... better. Unlike other nootropics and health tablets these are all completely natural nutrients that you should be getting in your diet so you can feel good aboout taking them too. Furthermore, the high amounts of B and C mean that it's also great as an energy booster. Vitamin Bhelps us to extract the energy from good and is also used to carry information around the brain and improve muscle function. Vitamin C meanwhile boosts the immune system keeping viruses at bay. The other ingredients have a long list of advantages too which can benefit anyone but particularly bodybuilders: with calcium being great for muscle contractions, bone strength and tendons; zinc being good for your sense of smell and testosterone production meaning more fat burning and muscle building; thiamine improving oxidative energy by improving the transport of oxygen in the blood; biotin improving the utilisation of amino acids - that means muscle building; riboflavin burning carbs - meaning more energy and less fat; magnesium improving strength... the list goes on and many of these ingredients are found in other supplements (zinc and magnesium are very popular in testosterone boosters as is vitamin B6). Berocca is marketed partly as an energy booster and it is a great pick-me-up. The only downside is the taste but it does grow on you.
