Do any of those cortisol blocking supps work?

[HeHateMe]

I remember phosphatidylserine was touted as a 'potent' cortisol suppresor years ago. Haven't heard much about it since (probably because it's useless).

i doubt they are worth the money

That's about what I figured. About 99% of the stuff out there is garbage.

Large doses of Vitamin C works.

PPS works well but it must be taken in abundance

Re: cortisol

How large of a dose of Vit C? Is a daily or 3 times daily dose?

To control cortisol during the workout, take 2 to 3 grams of Vitamin C pre-workout. Then take your normal daily amount throughout the day.
