I took Omega-3 oil capsule 1 per day. It is to lower my blood pressure because I didn't want to take telvisartan that the doctor prescribed me. But the oil capsuoes were causing gout in both my feet. I didn't know and were bed tidden for nearly 5 months. I realized it a month ago and is slowly recovering now. The Omega-3 capsules were not just oil from fish meat but includes oil from all fish innards and fish heads. Which was why it is so easy to cause gout. Sharing my bad experience so that others do not fall into the same trap as I. P.S I was hospitalized during the 5 months, and even specialists going around the ward do not suspect anything when they saw my omega3 supplement. I realized it and stopped for 4 days, immediately i could start walking. But the damaged are already done to my feet, i am trying my best to heal now.
When I was vegan (for 7 years), I took a lot of supplements. When I transitioned to meat-based, BBBE, I no longer needed the supplements. They made me jittery. I do take potassium & magnesium to alleviate nighttime leg cramps and melatonin to help me sleep through the night.
Excellent video content as usual. I take a boatload of supplements but I believe that I am clear eyed about it. I don't have high expectations about what positive effects they may be having on me. I think more in terms of what negatives they may be holding off rather enhancing something. I've only been sick once (a cold of some sort) in the past 15 yrs. I don't know if it's because I'm lucky or I've been getting some benefits from the supplement stack, etc. Although I try to be consistent, I am not adverse to changing things up. For instance, I took a resveratrol supplement for about 12 yrs before giving up on it a couple of years ago. I just don't want to be in that circumstance where I'm confronted with "You should have been doing this or that" all of these years. For instance, that's why I try to maintain my muscle strength/mass as I age.. My core stack contains collagen and creatine with my coffee in the morning. Fish oil, D3+K2, magnesium glycinate at night/taurate in the morning. And then about 15 other things that I will probably cull a little in the new year.
I agree. I take supplements because I'm a Flexatarian. Sometimes I eat chicken. Chicken is the only protein outside of eggs, Avocado's, and fish I get most of my protein.. So I take an organic pea/quinoa protein on the days I workout(3-4 days per week.). Also I take B- Vitamins, Omega 3 and Vitamin D supplements. In addition I take Zinc supplement to help with recovery and assist in blood flow. I basically eat two full meals a day and maybe a protein shake or fruit for a snack if I feel hungry outside of my two meals. All the above was started to fight pre-diabetic and to get off of blood pressure meds. Three months later bloodwork does not reflect pre-diabetic and I no longer need medication so far. Thank GOD. It can be mental but I think the supplements help and I feel more energized when taking them. I'm only 170pds and I was 194 before going Flexatarian. I follow Adam J Story on TH-cam who provides great advice. I share my experience to help others
I've been taking my vitamins for many years. Coq10 Eye vitamins D3 K2mk7 A vitamin for my liver because i take a ton of excedrin. I have a hard job. Lots of joint pain. I don't have fatty liver. My kidneys lungs heart, are all good and my distance vision is 20/20 at 55 years old.
As a 70 year old woman, 2 hormone values at the end of the measuring scale and 2 values at the beginning of the scale. What do you recommend? Thyroid values are within range.
I am currently taking Magnesium Potassium K2 D3 Fish oil Vit C ( because I don’t eat fruit) Co Q 10 which you didn’t mention so I wonder if this is a waste? B Complex (is this a waste?) I eat meat, fish and low glycemic vegetables, but nothing made from flour
I also take a lot: eye vitamin, C, D3, K2 MK-7, magnesium, CoQ10, hyaluronic acid with collagen (currently reconsidering), just started taurine 1000mg.
Sad thing is you are not getting milligrams from a lot of supplements. I've done the math and I'm not getting hardly anything from my K2,D3,and COQ10. Just learned this yesterday and I am very disappointed 😞
Yawn .. supplements are necessary sometimes... I take beta sitosterolfir prostrate without it i would be in surgery paying out 50k to hospitals. . no thank you .. eat well exercise well walk a lot... get rid of all stressors...

Up here in the north I take 4,000 units Vitamin D3 during the winter. Also, because I train a lot I do take Co Q 10.

Spot on Dr Adam. Great advice for those who don't know.
Glad it was helpful!
Even great advice for people who DO know. A good refresher course. 😊

Lol ok so whats a good greens supplement?
@ buys greens and put it in a smoothie- it’s cheaper, higher quality and tastes better.
But, if I didn't take a fist full of supplements twice a day, I would have to go off the Skittles diet!

I find the topic of supplements confusing .. I took so many over the yrs, and yet I'm not in good shape now !
I also have done lots of juicing, not sure if it's worth it.

Is cod liver oil the same as fish oil ? 🐟 🎣
Yes, it is. Cod is a fish. It's "different" but the "same."
Just about everything is a waste of money nowadays. 😢

I take beta sitosterolfir prostrate without it i would be in surgery paying out 50k to hospitals. .
