Before you get flamed for not using the search function , there's some great info on astragalus on this board .

 

[Fleezy]

prevent hypertension

prevent diabetes

don't abuse nephrotoxic drugs like NSAIDs

treat sleep apnea

seems like that's 96-98% of the battle.. the rest could be genetic.. FSGS, IgA nephropathy, etc.

Actually I did use search engine , heard lot about astragalus, but I couldn’t find anything on telmistartan for kidney health , if that’s true telmistartan is great for blood pressure I know , maybe thats why it’s good for kidneys I’d assume,helps to protect heart and so on so I’ve heard , if that’s true i would pick telmistartan for it’s multiple effects on different organs , not only kidneys , telmistartan sounds pretty impressive , I have also read astragalus is good as well only in large doses 4 to 10 grams plus daily , if you could only pick one for kidney health, which one would you pick ? I guess I’m just looking for different opinions on guys that used those products

I’ve never understood the “if you could only pick one” mindset. This is your health and quality of life. Do you really want to be cheap and only “pick one”…

If you have high blood pressure, that’s the priority. The kidneys will be stressed until you fix that.

An ARB will not heal the kidneys like astragalus can.

Both serve different roles and functions. Don’t take a medication you don’t need, but don’t pick a supplement that will only patch the problem and not solve the root cause.

If you can only afford one of those then you can't afford to be a bodybuilder.

Like everyone else says, astragalus is the best supplement for kidneys. Proven to work for bodybuilders on gear over a long period of time.

However, I'll also add taurine and grapeseed extract. Both are inexpensive and have a ton of different health benefits in addition to kidney health.

I have some health supps that I take sporadically, just because I get tired of taking so many pills every day. But those ^ three (astragalus, taurine, GSE) stay in my regimen at all times.

Anyone can afford to be a bodybuilder brother. Lets not twist things to much here

Anyone can afford to be a natural bodybuilder.
That being said; if you can't afford health supps, you can't afford gear.

 

[maxrep24]

Astragalus is like $25 a bottle lol

I find the most expensive part isn’t even the gear/supps—moreso the food

Gh is probably the most expensive part of the gear/supps
Get 360iu gh for $125 (not including shipping). 10iu a day costs me about $3.50 a day

That’s like 1/2 a lb of ground beef. Hell even 1.5L of fairlife is more expensive than the GH

The thing with food though, is everyone has to eat. You can eat a bodybuilding diet for the same price as eating at Five Guys and Chipotle.

My main meal that I eat is ground turkey/beef, beans, and canned carrots. I usually eat it over rice. That's ^ cheaper than McDonald's

Yeah that’s a fair point

That's true ,bbxtreme ,at what dose of astragalus do you find most effective for yourself , everyone might be different on dosage depending on lots of factors,but how much astragalus do you run if you don’t mind me asking ?

Vitamin Shoppe Astragalus and Kidney Support by Leviathan Nutrition.
Manage your blood pressure with proper cardio/supplementation/meds if needed.

The end.

I currenly am taking 4g daily. If tren is implemented I will increase based on bloodwork to 5 or 6g daily.

The average person or bodybuilder can benefit from 1-2g daily. What I do at my level doesn’t apply to most guys here.

Still a bodybuilder.

I know bodybuilders that use low amounts of gear to and that are health conscious and dont need a whack of supplements.
Even if its not about the money

But yes obviously i agree with the can’t afford health supps u should be using gear

Just because you cant afford a sports car doesn’t mean u can’t still drive
