On another note, supplements. I stick to protein powder, and creatine monohydrate. I find that powerlifting is the only thing keeping me sane in all these 35 hour Cedar Rapids overnights.
Oh, And the occasional coffee laced with jet A to perk me up in the morning.

But any conceivable element up to some reasonable atomic number (120-ish?) can be considered natural in the sense that it can probably be created by some natural process at some time or place in the universe, if not necessarily here on earth. In some cases maybe only at the big bang. Some of them decay very, very rapidly, so they certainly don't exist for long.

Reminds me of Dr. Red Duke’s Medical Minute on the radio. My favorite, “Hold on to the handrail when you are going down the stairs. Cause it ain’t the fall that hurts ya, it’s the sudden stop.”
