This Paleo reasoning is beyond retarded. We do a lot of stuff our ancestors didnt do, should we stop doing these things as well?

Our bodies are a lot smarter than we are, they know just fine what to do with supplements. The majority of supplements out there are derived from or are a version of naturally occuring substances anyway.

Youre also assuming all supplements are synthetic. Whey and casein proteins, for example, come from cheese manufacturing.

I guess by extension we should also not take multi-vitamins, since theyre man-made

Surviving and gaining an advantage by using supps are not the same thing. And what about people who require synthetic medications to life-threatening manage health conditions? I guess they should just stick to what that higher power put here?
