I have always been into buying supplement ingredients separately. Besides being cheaper, like Dr X said, you know what you are getting. You control the dosages, etc.

Besides designer blends often underdosed, these companies want to make you think they are doing something magical in the way the are blending them, rather than just putting some stuff into a capsule or container.

They use fancy but meaningless lingo designed to sound scientific. More work goes into designing the labels and advertising campaigns than goes into the product. Here's a test: when you come by a fancy sounding scientific term in a product description, you should be able to find that term in plenty of other places. If you can't, then you should probably consider it bullshit.

I'm not saying all blends are bad. 0311 mentioned Xtend, for instance. Well dosed and cut and dry. If you can afford the good products and want the convenience, then go for it. Just remember that if an ingredient is good, it is good.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
