I’ve been a bodybuilder and CrossFitter throughout my life and have literally NEVER taken creatine or anything more than a magnesium supplement ($9 for a 3-month supply) and fish oil (comparably as inexpensive). I rarely use protein powder.

They can help. But they aren’t NECESSARY to living a healthy life and being physically more fit.

And if you use them, you are usually not interesting in a healthier lifestyle, but to maximize your work out, which could end in a paradox, you are not getting healthier :)
