Hi folks,

 

I was wondering if I should ditch magnesium and B complex from my current stack, since I’m going to add spirulina (2/3g) - I’m trying to keep as simple as possible and avoid any potential overlaps.

 

Here is my stack:

 

• magnesium threonate (just started this type, during the day. I’ve tried any kind of mag before bed and usually I get interrupted sleep)
• fish oil
• vit D3 + K2
• B complex
• taurine
• curcumin
• resveratrol
• grape seed extract
• black seed oil (I’ve seen rave reviews about benefits with hay fever, anxiety, cholesterol and focus but I’ve jut started LEF’s supplement and so far no apparent effect)
• ashwagandha cycled with an “energy boosting” supp such as royal jelly, rhodiola, ginseng or cordyceps

 

Should I add zinc for helping with focus, dry scalp and anti-aromatase effect, or the Resveratrol + Grape Seed Extract combo is enough?

 

What about NAC? Could it help with overthinking, mild OCD and glutamate reduction or would it be overkill, considering that I already have some anti-oxidants in my stack?

 

Thanks!

If you want to slash and burn:

Possibly swap the curcumin and resvertatrol and replace with pterostilbene.
Get rid of everything else except K2 + D3 and magnesium.

You can try different supplements subject to specific problems you may be trying to resolve. If you want an evidence based approach try reading: An Evidence Based Approach to Vitamins & Minerals. It doesn't cover most herbal remedies though.
