I finished up the Slim in 6 program mid June, continued to take the SF as I continued working out and even took the SF while doing P90 up until September. I wanted to know when do these supplements stop being effective? At what point does you body get used to them? Do I need to rotate with a different one? Or its OK to continue to use it. I am almost ready to purchase another bottle. Please advise.

PS, I do take a multivitamin, Emergen-C, MSM supplements and a combo of Alpha Lipoic Acid, DMAE, Ester C, etc.

I am 37 years old, want to continue to lose more weight and I've restarted Slim in 6.

Thank you.

I always somewhat rotate my supps, mainly out of habit and intuition. However, there are no studies showing that pyruvate, or even green tea, is less effective over time. I would bet that it will continue to be effective.

I would suggest this protocol, in general. Schedule your traininng into blocks of increasing difficulty followed by rest/recovery. Meaning, do a series of 4/6 week programs with one recovery week in between. Take supps during on weeks and give em a break on your recovery weeks, though continue with a multi-vit. As far as vitamin C goes, I only ramp up my intake during times of stress. Other times I subsist on a base level of intake, less than 1,000mg per day, for sure. During stressful times I may increase this to 5,000mg per day. I think prolong high dosages do lessen the effect.

One contradiction to this might be MSM, as studies seem to show that it works best with prolonged consistant intake.

Results will vary. Weight loss may be temporary as exercise and proper diet are required to maintain long-term weight loss and muscle gain.
