My gf is worried about the pill intake i currently have, should i be worried?

Morning:
3 pills hydroxicut hardcore
1 pill centrum multivitamin
1 pill b-complex "50"
2 pills fish oil 1000mg each
1 pill L-carnitine 500mg
1 pill L-lysine 500mg
1 pill cod liver oil 600 mg
1 pill niacin 500mg
3 pills dymatize nutrition super amino 4800mg

Afternoon:
Same as morning

Evening:
Same as morning minus the hydroxicut hardcore.

I also take 150-250g of protein daily
5-10g of creatine mono
anator p70 post workout
And on cardio days i take 8 pills of gakic (which is 1 serving) before the workout.

No...your diet/supplementation is a hell of a lot better than hers if she is complaining about what you're taking. If she's worried, then tell her to read up on it. That will probably help her to be supportive of what you're doing which is a huge plus in the long run.

Most of your breakdown seems like essential fats, amino acids, and vitamins. I wouldn't be too concerned about it...

I would not be to worried about it, you should not be worried about taking to many pills because there are all high quality supplements. I find that taking some of those in pill form is better than a powder form because of the convienance of just taking a pill.

The only thing I would question is the cod liver oil. It's overkill since you alreay have the fish oil. It can be high in sat fat and cholesterol. Plus it's extremely high in vitamin A and since you already take multi-vits thrice a day that could be pushing it on the A if you do that long enough. Much better ways to get your omega's, imo, than cod liver oil. It's pretty much old news anyways since we have so many high quality body oils on the market.
