1. Calcium 2. Multivitamins 3. Vit C Caveat - take timed release vit C or take it up to 4 times a day; you need continuous exposure to vit C to experience the benefits 4. Ketone drinks 5. Low quality probiotics 6. Vit E 7. Iron Supplements ARE useful, but USDA recommended dosage are FAR too low for human benefit

A while back I read an article which says vit. C's half-life in human body is about 3.5 hours. Also, taking 400mg of vit. C at a time is pretty much a saturation point for blood concentration, taking any amount more than that will only increase blood concentration a tiny little bit. Only way to greatly increase blood concentration level of vit. C is by IV. So, taking 1000mg a time is a waste unless it's time-released form. Personally I take 500mg 3 times a day.

May i remark: if you want to follow the example known from the Mediterranian, make sure to go preferably for sardines with SKIN & BONES because they contain more calcium. Otherwise, your choice of fish, anchovies or sardines are pretty much the same - but keep in mind that both also contain omega 3 fats, vitamins D3 and K2, which are also benificial. I rather doubt nutrient suppliments for calcium contain the right nutrients like vitamin D3 and K2 as the fish do, which are probably essential to the bioavailability of getting the calcium to where it is needed.

I started taking Berberine for my glucose levels. A friend of mine’s doc recommended he start taking it after he gave him a script for these fancy blood monitoring patches. He could see how carbs affected his blood sugar, then he started taking the berberine. He started to slowly loose weight and gain control of his blood sugar. He still has to be on meds but lower dose ones. My last blood panel showed my glucose was really high (it was a no fasting test) and I’ve been pre diabetic for a long time. Plus my weight was going up. I haven’t eaten sugar, wheat, rice for over 23 years! My appetite is always fairly low and if I’m not careful I’ll skip meals. I should not be over weight, but I’m more concerned with my blood sugar. I am almost 69 and I’m not on any meds. I do take supplements so it was easy to add berberine. I can no longer skip meals as my blood sugar drops so that’s nice. I did get Covid in the beginning and dropped a lot of weight (10 lbs) but since then I’ve been slowly dropping weight (maybe 2 lbs/month). I did have to do my blood panel a week after I started berberine and my glucose dropped from 200 to 90! My goal is staying off medications! The weight loss is a nice perk but it’s not fast waste loss which I think is better and easier for the body.

For years I have been taking natural vitamin E, d-alpha tocopherol 400 IU and a base of mixed tocopherols. So what is wrong with that? Also synthetic pure ascorbic acid does not have nearly the same biological activity as naturally occurring vitamin C complex with bioflavonoids. This is why I am taking standardized acerola extract capsules instead.

@joshm3342 9 ай бұрын

Ask doctors about the role of vitamins K2 & D3. They help to ensure calcium goes into your bones. You need to get that calcium out of your arteries. Good luck!

@janiesmith987 7 ай бұрын

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:29 🦴 *Calcium supplements may not benefit bone health and could deposit calcium in blood vessels. Get bioavailable calcium from foods like dark leafy greens and small fish like sardines or anchovies.* 01:54 💊 *Multivitamins were based on outdated standards. Minimum daily requirements may not meet actual health needs. Research suggests higher vitamin D levels are beneficial.* 04:15 🍊 *Vitamin C is essential but should be taken continuously for benefits. Consider time-release or multiple doses for consistent exposure.* 07:06 💧 *Ketone drinks are expensive and taste bad. Opt for MCT oil for a more affordable and palatable way to produce ketones.* 09:16 🧪 *Vitamin E supplements vary in effectiveness; some may cancel out others' benefits. Be selective if choosing vitamin E supplements.* Made with HARPA AI

It's all misleading. What are called "supplements" don't really do what people have been led to believe, and instead they are useless since they are not a whole food, and consequently they produce a toxic burden on the body. The idea that "supplements" can make up for a deficiency in our foods is not viable. It's a huge business that preys off our fears much resembling Big Farma tactics. Just look at protein powder as just one example of the scam. It's highly processed and does not support health. Nobody is suffering from a protein deficiency in the US, yet the protein hype has worked to sell these powders for 50 years.

@byrdma12 The danger with taking multivitamins for a long time is that while you may be insufficient in some of the vitamins included, you may be taking too much of some others and become overdosed. So it's best to do a blood test on all the vitamins you have been taking so far and take only those that you really need as separate pills.
