Fish oil >>>>>>>>>>>> multivitamin

Almost everybody will be deficient in omega-3s (EPA/DHA) unless seafood (or grass-fed animal meat) comprises an extraordinary amount of their diet. It is *incredibly* hard to maintain an optimal ***** acid ratio with diet alone unless you've got a lot of dough to spend or are a nutrition nut. Thus, for most people omega-3 supplementation is that one thing everyone should do that will reap a large range of health benefits over time.

Multivitamins vary in quality and purpose. If you're eating right, you won't need one. A greens superfood supplement (Greens+ and copycats) may be more useful than a multi if a person's diet is deficient in veggies.

Arginine and NO-Explode are expensive and doesn't actually increase nitric oxide in the body. A good ephedrine/caffeine/aspirin stack is a million times more cost effective, although it doesn't give the nice "I just paid $50 for this fizzy bitter stuff so it must work" placebo effect that No-Explode gives you.

As far as the opening post is concerned, the main point is spot on, however. Proper diet, by definition, should preempt the need for supplementation.
