If you are looking for the basics, this is the order of supps in importance (my personal preference only)
1. DIET. I know not a supplment, but 100% of all supplments are useless if your diet sucks.
2. Multi-Vitamin - covers what you can't get enough of through diet.
3. Fish Oil... great for all sorts of things. cheap.
4. Protein - who really knows what the max you can absorb is, play around with numbers and see what gives you the best results. I aim for 2grams per pound of bodyweight. Which I dont hit, but I find if I overshoot, then I usually get adequate amounts.
5. Creatine. I would NOT add this until you have all the above items in line, and been training for a while. Its a great slump buster, so get all your "newbie" gains without creatine, then at your first plateu, take the creatine and you should bust through it easily.
Again, just my opinion.
