Top 10 Supplements to Take in 2023

For some reason, this year feels different.

The people in my life, at least, are no longer setting resolutions for specific external outcomes like most years... the same years where nothing has changed.

The trend seems to be around waking up to reality, and using a principles-oriented approach to success. Instead of setting goals, people are changing fundamental character traits which in turn help them to be more effective, efficient, and maximize performance.

An important part of maximizing performance for those of us here at RedSupps, is implementing smart supplementation into our already optimized diet, training, rest, recovery, and mental health regimens.

With so many options available on the market, how do you know what's best? Many products can seem redundant - "all pre-workouts are the same", and there are many copy-cat products on the market for any given formula. We like to take a look at what our customers are buying, and what is delivering actual real-world results for them

So, let's get started.

1. Yeti Juice by GorillaAlpha

Formulated by GorillaAlpha, who is already making a lot of noise here in the UK. Their formulas are complete, thorough, clinically dosed, as well as innovative.

Taking a glance at the label, a few things stand out about Yeti Juice. First, is it's variable dosing protocol. It has one and two-scoop ingredient profiles, which helps users adjust for their stimulant tolerance and level of performance. It checks all the boxes: clinical dose of citrulline, beta alanine, betaine, as well as L-Norvalline, which is rarely included by corner-cutting supplement brands looking to save a buck in exchange for less efficacy.

However, our favorite part of the formula is the addition of Juglans Regia extract. This all-natural herbal extract contains a potent stimulant that works in synergy with two types of caffeine and theobromine to elevate focus, euphoria, motivation, and metabolism - as well as enhance peak performance, as research shows.

They've intelligently combined these stimulants with a hefty dose of L-tyrosine, which fuels dopamine synthesis in the brain and gives you that euphoric stimulation everyone loves from pre-workouts of days gone by.

The icing on the cake is a full 300mg (600mg with two scoops) dose of Alpha GPC. Alpha GPC increases levels of acetylcholine in the brain - the same neurotransmitter that is elevated by nicotine, without the harmful side effects. Acetylcholine gives you that 'tunnel-vision' focus, and a stronger mind-muscle connection, which is essential for making progress in the gym.

Let's move on to number two.

2. Godzilla Pre-Workout by RYSE

Ryse Godzilla Pre-Workout is the ultimate source of energy for your legendary workouts. With its unique blend, you'll experience improved blood flow and nutrient delivery to enhance muscle pump and performance during exercise.

This product is unique in that it includes not only a clinical dose of citrulline malate, but a gram of citrulline nitrate, to ensure maximum NO2 production.

An energizing mix of 175mg of caffeine and 25mg extended-release caffeine will give you laser focus, allowing you to get the most out of each rep.

Not only does this blend contain 250mg of pink himalayan salt to replenish electrolytes lost through sweat, but it also features Thinkamine—a patented form of Vincamine extracted from the plant Vinca minor. This special ingredient has been demonstrated to boost cognitive function and mental clarity while you exercise, allowing you to stay hydrated, prevent cramping, and maximize your workout.

3. Blackstone Labs ERADICATE

This comprehensive formula includes 250mg of N-Acetyl L-Cysteine, a key ingredient that stimulates the production of glutathione; a powerful antioxidant that not only defends your liver from harm but also aids in detoxing your body.

Boasting 250mg of safed musli extract, this special ingredient not only enhances spermatogenesis and erectile strength but also augments the body's glutathione levels. This increases antioxidant activity while diminishing the negative impacts that free radicals have on lipids in our bodies.

To top it off, this supplement contains a potent 25mg dose of arimistane, an aromatase inhibitor (AI) that reduces the body's amount of estrogen and cortisol. It works in a "suicidal" manner by stopping testosterone from converting to estrogen while maximizing natural production levels.

4. Blackstone Labs Dust X

Next, one that seems to stay at the top of the charts year after year: DUST X by BSL. Dust X is the pre-workout people buy when the rest of them stop working.

Containing a premium stimulant blend containing one of the most popular caffeine alternatives since geranium products were discontinued, DUST X hits hard in the stim department while delivering on performance-enhancing ingredients like beta alanine, citrulline malate, and L-tyrosine to help fuel the euphoric stimulation it provides.

DUST X also contains DMAE, which helps support mental focus and clarity to keep you in the zone for longer.

5. Blackstone Labs EPISMASH

EpiSmash is the perfect supplement for both men and women, no matter what their fitness goal may be. Whether you're looking to stay all-natural or bridge cycles, EpiSmash can help! It's also ideal for those on post-cycle therapy who are trying to keep gains while they progress; it works great whether you’re cutting OR bulking. If you haven't tried it yet, Epi Smash is worth adding to your current stack.

6. Ryse Loaded Pre

Don't let it's amazing taste and flavor profiles fool you, though. This product is fully loaded. Packed with 4.5 grams of Pure L-Citrulline in each scoop, this potent combination provides a powerful boost to your body and mind's performance.

7. Blackstone Labs APEX MALE

Number 7 is APEX MALE by Blackstone Labs. With the natural testosterone booster, you can experience a boost in your body's production of this essential hormone.

9. CHOQ Daily for Men

Number 9 is from an up and coming brand here at RS called CHOQ. Choq is a natural wellness brand that focuses on ingredients that have been used for hundreds if not thousands of years - tried and true ingredients from ayurveda, traditional chinese medicine, and more. These are the secrets that the east has kept in the wide open while western science has ignored them.
