Supplements supply the body with adequate, if not optimum, doses of select compounds that have the potential to enhance performance, suppress appetite, reduce body fat, increase muscle gain, quicken recovery, and improve overall health.

It is very difficult to get all the nutrients the body needs while consuming the amount of food calories recommended for continuous body-fat loss. Without the proper nutrients, the working, changing muscles may become undernourished, causing the body to shed the muscle it cannot feed. Any time there is an increase in activity, there is an increase in nutrient usage. By supplying these nutrients without additional calories (through the use of supplements) the attempt is made to satisfy all nutrient needs for repair and growth without exceeding the amount of calories needed to sustain the deficit necessary for fat loss. Also, certain compounds may assist in appetite control.
