Siim Land: 6 Popular Supplements That Aren’t Worth It

Key Takeaways

• Avoid Mitopure: Extremely expensive ($112/month) with minimal benefits. Exercise provides better mitophagy and strength improvements.
• Skip BCAAs: No muscle growth benefits and may increase protein breakdown. Use protein powder for better results.
• Choose EAAs over BCAAs: EAAs are better but still inferior to whey protein for muscle growth.
• Stick to Creatine Monohydrate: Opt for Creapure (German-made) instead of pricier creatine variants.
• Fatty15 (C15) is not worth the cost ($95 for 90 days). Benefits are limited to liver markers in overweight individuals.
