Like I already wrote in the introductory forum, I guess I became obsessed with various supplements - vitamins, herbs and amino acids.. I received a very good reply, that what matters most for longevity is genetics and then medicine advances. I would add exercise and healthy food, no smoking etc. But how much do supplements help after all those things are sorted out? 5 %? 1 %? ...
As for supplements, I guess I really do take too many. I read about ALA and order it, then it is ALCAR and NAC, then Rhodiola, Vitaminc C (high dose) and Lysine, then Taurine. Not to forget Vitamin D and Vitamin K2. Some magnesium and fish oil caps.. And multivitamin. And cinnamon (Ceylon). I think all those supps are currently costing me about 30 EUR per month. I do buy in bulk so it is not so expencive, but on the other hand this is still 400 EUR per year, which for our standard in Slovenia is not so little... I guess I will have to stop reading various studies on the internet, because I will run out of money if I do.. .. And still I could add to this "regime" curcumin and garlic extract etc etc..
And fitness supp are costing me about the same, another 30 EUR per month. Some whey and casein, then HMB and creatine, throw in some EAA and BCAA and Maltodextrin and Oats...
So what do you guys think. Should I just consume what I have and stop with this shit..? I can save like 10k EUR in next 20 years if I stop with this and I can probably spend this money on some healthy food and exercise.. Money is not a problem for now, but one can never have enough of it so spending wisely is a good choice never the less I would say...
thanks for help
