Help choosing a multivitamin and other supplements

So... As I'm no nutrition specialist, I have no idea how to go about choosing a multivitamin. I always skip description because I'm not interested in advertising policies and I look directly at the ingredients.
Some information. I'm 23 have a farly active lifestyle. I do hatha yoga and kundalini yoga everyday. I do some Five Elements Qi Gong once in a while. I do additional flexibility training everyday, through dynamic stretch as well as static holds. I recently also set a strength regimen to be done twice a week (Tuesday and Friday). I will alternate a 40-day strength phase to a 40-day stamina phase, and keep cycling them, as suggested by an physical trainer I respect. I suggested to alternate this two phases because I'm preparing myself for enlistment and that is exactly what I need. Not hypertrophy, not skill develepment.
I have to purchase supplements that ship from Europe, because I'm in Europe and my country charges too much custom fees, if I purchase from outside Europe. Additionally, they take too much time to process shipments that come from outside Europe (we're talking about one month before they ship me the documents to compile, then I have to send those and they take at least another months to send me the package. They're lazy asses, I know, and thieves because import fees are thievery, given that the products belong to me and not to the government). So that's not an option. I want to spend as little as possible, but of course I won't compromise quality.
I hope I've given enough information. Now on to the products I'm considering:
• https://www.iafstore.com/eu/eurosup/spo ... -codp36159• http://nutritiondiscount.eu/categories/ ... pak-detail• http://nutritiondiscount.eu/categories/ ... pak-detail• http://nutritiondiscount.eu/categories/ ... 619-detail• http://nutritiondiscount.eu/categories/ ... 586-detail
I also want to get krill oil. Is any of these good?
• http://nutritiondiscount.eu/categories/ ... -mg-detail• https://www.iafstore.com/eu/amix/krill- ... -codp34692
And finally proteins. What kind of proteins should I get? Beef proteins, casein proteins, egg proteins, milk and egg proteins, milk proteins, whey proteins, protein blends?
If possible, I'd rather get everything from the same website. Of course, the links provided are just what I'm considering. I would like feedback on them, if possible, and I also welcome any advice and alternative suggestion. Thanks everyone in advance. 
 
HPs Shannon suggested Dr. Rons multivitamin. It's from the USA but you can get some on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pure-Natur ... B0077DW16E
I cant give you suggestions on the other things, unfortunately.

Thank you, Shael, but as I said excessively high custom fees and lazy handling that results in waiting over 8 weeks (after the arrival to the customs) makes buying from outside EU a deal-breaker.
 
Shael.. The .com on amazon is still the USA wevsite.. Might be vetter to look on an european amazon.
 
Not to mention that stuff you suggested is way outside my budget. If I ask my grandma to spend all that money in one shot, she comes with a broomstick to hit me on the head lol
 
I'll use this opportunity to ask about Thomson supplements. Their products are very cheap compared to other similar products on the market, and the concentration of vitamins/minerals is very high. For instance, I bought 180 tablets of multivitamin-multimineral with iron (Nuplex) for about 10 EUR. Now most of the vitamins go way above 100% of the Daily Value (one as high as 588% of DV). 
The downside is that many of their supplements contain either streatic acid, or magnesium stearate, both of which I read aren't good.  

They sell 60 capsules of Vitamin C for about 3 EUR ... the concentration of the vitamin per capsule is no more no less than 1,667% of the Daily Value! How safe is it to take such high doses? Another supplement I got from them is B50 Complex, and here too, each capsule contain high doses of vitamins. For instance, Thiamine 3,333% of the Daily Value... Any ideas on this? 

Thanks lots :)

In instances where multivitamins are very cheap, and still at a very high dose, I would be wary that the ingredients are formulated to be a less bio available from of the nutrient as usually these are relatively inexpensive to produce.
 
Thomas Schweitzer .. The daily dose is often tested on other things thn humans like rats etc. If you have a defiency it is not bad to temporarily take a bit more than the max daily amount they say you need. I hope you understand what I mean.
 
I think you could've opened another conversation or just waited until someone answered me. Next time please do so. Nobody has given me an answer here yet, but that's alright, since I've only posted three days ago.
 
The problem with cheap supplements is that there is a substantial risk for adulteration, inclusion of spoiled ingredients, and other quality problems. If you want high-quality supplements, you must be willing to pay for quality. Neptune Labs Krill Oil was tested by Consumer Labs, a laboratory that independently tests and verifies nutritional supplements, and was found to test positive for rancidity and contained less than the advertised levels of omega-3s. I would be wary of a place that calls themselves "Nutrition Discount." They have every incentive in the world to find the cheapest version of a supplement and the cheapest version is the cheapest because it is a capsule filled with half real krill oil and half vegetable oil colored with synthetic astaxanthin.

High Priestess Shannon Outlaw has recommended cod liver oil. It contains omega-3s as well as being the best source for vitamins A and D. As a bonus, cod liver oil is cheaper than krill oil. You can do a search for "best quality cod liver oil in Europe" or something like that to find a high-quality brand that ships to Europe.

A reputable health-food or natural brand of multivitamin will have higher-quality ingredients as those brands try to source from sea algae, plants, and other natural sources. A search for "natural multivitamin" will yield some higher-quality brands. You can also make a trip to a local health food store where they may stock good-quality multivitamins and you will save on shipping costs. Even conventional stores may have high-quality products if you really scour the shelves. A very large, well-stocked grocery store in my area carries a brand of natural multivitamin at 1/3 the price a health food store sells the exact same multivitamin for. The natural multivitamins are on the bottom shelf, wedged in the corner of an aisle in the middle of the medications/supplements section of the store and I had to look through all the shelves to find it.

You do not need to bother with the Uber Epic Muscle Builder MAXX protein powders. The fitness community is saturated with the idea that you need to take some fancy amino acid supplement like the ripped guy in the ads. In reality, the ripped guy in the ads is going to die at 40 from a heart attack due to eating 3 pounds of steak a day and injecting so much crap to look like that. You do not need to be consuming hundreds of grams of protein a day. You can get adequate protein from a healthy diet that includes meat and eggs. Your intuition is the best guide when it comes to diet.


If your grandmother will beat you with a broomstick for requesting high-quality nutritional supplements, buy them with your own money. There are endless ways to make money. The lies that "the economy is terrible" and "It is impossible to make a living," are perpetuated by the jew-controlled media to keep wealth out of the hands of the dumb goyim. In reality, there is money out there waiting to fall into your hands if you are willing to look for it. Walk around a nicer neighborhood and look for unkempt lawns. Knock on the door and offer to mow their lawn for $20. If you are good with school subjects that students typically struggle in, like chemistry, you can tutor students for $20 an hour or more. If you are not good at chemistry but you have patience with children, you can teach elementary school ABCs and counting to 100. There are online platforms designed to connect students and tutors and you can find them through an internet search. You can pirate a copy of Photoshop and teach yourself how to use it. You can then earn money as a freelance graphic designer or make articles for blogs and such. Articles such as "Dad's Magic Photos Take Son on Epic Adventures" or "I Make Fantasy Lands in a Drop of Water" get views and you can get paid $50-$100 per post. Doing a few money spells will tip the universe in your favor and make money appear in convenient ways.
 
Foreword. I quote myself "I want to spend as little as possible, but of course I want compromise quality." That itself would have saved you a lot of time in writing your answer, Johnson_Akemi. I'm not dumb and I'm not new to life. That being said, I wouldn't purchase the supplements proposed from Shael not even if didn't have customs problem. They're overpriced. I boycott people who only care about their pockets.
Fair enough about krill oil and nutritiondiscount, even if you haven't told me whether you had a look at the ingredients or not. I also provided another option. I compared the nutrients percentages with those of Dr Ron or whatever he's called and the are about the same. At least that. Iafstore might be a better option.
There is only one health store in the area, as this is a small town and they have little concern about health alternatives. Whey is part of a 21-day nutrition plan made by a nutritionist for me. This nutritionist also owns an herbalist's shop and is not part of the fitness community as intended here. But I won't purchase his whey. I won't spend EUR 40 on protein every 3 days, just because he has no other valuable options. That would be crazy. He put 1 sachet at every major meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and every box only has 10 sachets. Each sachet weighs 22g. Ingredients: Lipocomplex2®(milk whey protein* enriched in amino acids) powder, Maltodextrins, anti-caking agent: silicon dioxide, Fructose, Zinc gluconate, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin B6.

Those lies are actually true in my country, because every entry-level jobs here work through networks of (fake) "friends". Entry-level jobs here require 2+ of prior experience, unless you Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse and Goofy. Then by all means, come in. They don't even look at your resume. My aunt confirms this. She's lived for 10 years in Miami and found that finding a job there was a lot easier, while here you need to know people. I hear from my hair stylist of clients of his that go to London and easily find entry-level jobs in hospitality services. The Exams Coordinator at the English school I used to go to is in my same age range: she went to Edinburgh (which I fancy a lot) when she was ~20-21 and she easily found a job as waitress. Fast. She didn't know anyone there. In my country those you said are not lies. I could start a blog, yes. But what do I write about?

Graphic designer is not a viable option. I already tried doing that, but struggle greatly with everything that is not cropping and resizing. Not my things. Same goes for coding, which you haven't mentioned anyway. I was good in chemistry, physics and maths, yes. Latin and foreign languages as well. But know I remember very little about science stuff and Latin. I could still translate Latin, yes, but let's not not go into passive periphrastic and stuff like that. You could say "study them", but it's not worth it at the moment. I'm getting my physical conditioning ready for enlistment and I'm studying palmistry, tcm, qi gong and everything that helps me with plan B, even if there's no need for a plan B. I have nine months time. This is for how long ideally I will be taking multivitamins, cod liver oil and milk whey, before finally saying goodbye to civilian worthless life.
Afterword. I will do the researches you suggested. Thank you for sharing your opinion.
 
It seems my message didn't get through. I won't rewrite the bulk of it, because I'm short on time.
johnson_akemi, please, I'm not a child. Reading this sentence "I want to spend as little as possible, but of course I won't compromise quality." would've cut about 75% of your reply, or would've prompted you to write something better. There's no need to break the bank to buy overpriced supplements. In the future, I will be dragging down everyone and anyone who has prices too high compared to the factory costs and I will do so relentlessly, because they don't deserve to live in my opinion. I don't say everything should be for free (that is called charity and should be limited to healthcare and education/training), but to everything there should be an appropriate price, which of course in a Satanic Society will be in energy not in useless pieces of paper or valueless numbers written on a computer.
Good advice about krill oil and cod liver oil. I will take that into account and I will scout the one and only health store in my area. Whey protein is needed. It was given by a nutrionist who is all about organic, and he has nothing to deal with the "fitness community". I checked the overpriced product he had prescribed me and it appears to have this ingredients: Lipocomplex2®(milk whey protein* enriched in amino acids) powder, Maltodextrins, anti-caking agent: silicon dioxide, Fructose, Zinc gluconate, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin B6.
It comes in 10 sachets of 22g. I shall look for an alternative, now that I know that is milk whey protein and not something else.
As for "the econo[/IMG]acquaintances (let's not use friends, because that kind of relationship has no place in this superficial society of sleeping retards), which I don't have.
I can make a blog. That I can certainly do. I can't get into graphic design. It would take too much effort to learn and now I have to devolve most of the energy to preparing for the cadetship. It is imperative that I do so. The perks of pursuing your dream job. I was great at science subjects, but it's been 5 years since I really studied them. I could not tell an halogen from a noble gas... almost. Again, there are priorities.
In conclusion, it seems I will have to handle myself with this quest, since nobody had suggestions. I'll use Dr Ron's product as a reference for dosages and ingredients. Thanks everybody.
P.S. Centralforce, I believe we something on hold. I will message you asap to tell you about that. 
 
milk whey protein* anti-caking agent: silicon dioxide

I dont think youd want those 2 in a supplement.

Not sure but id say they interfere with being able to absorb the stuff plus silicones are known to seal off pores in your skin. Which gives you more chance on acne.
 
Just a quick note. When it comes to choosing anything, just use your intuition. Look at the pics if they are online and go with the one that feels right.

All the research etc is great but there can be unknown factors as well.
