What Actually Works

1. Whey Protein

Whey protein has overwhelming scientific evidence. It is ideal post-workout to kickstart muscle repair. Available in Nigeria from ₦8,000 to ₦25,000 per kg.

2. Creatine Monohydrate

The most researched sports supplement in history. It genuinely increases strength and power output. Take 3-5g daily.

What Is Mostly Hype

  • Fat burners — No supplement burns fat — a calorie deficit does.
  • Testosterone boosters — The evidence is extremely weak.
