My Current Regiment
My Current Regimen.
Posted on June 10, 2013by SELFHACKED
Updated June 12th, 2013:
Note:
I wrote this for my own personal use so I realize it’s quite cryptic, but that may change if I have time. I also think everyone has different needs based on genes, lifestyle and diet so I don’t encourage anyone to emulate this regimen. I am still experimenting with different dosages and frequency and possibly adding or subtracting some aspects of it so this is likely to change. Additionally, this is in no way comprehensive since this document is relatively new and I’ve excluded supplements that don’t interest me at all.
Also, parenthesis usually means that I have some kind of interest in the supplement, but not willing to include it for whatever reason.
REGIMEN:
You’ll notice I skip days for many supplements because what I take depend on what my body tells me and what I have eaten or done that day. If I exercise or eat lots of vegetables I reduce the supplements.
