Dear Shepard, you tell everyone here:
Anyone want to give opinions on my regimen?
So I will accept your invitation and give you the same message as I gave Hallucinogen, I think, which you will find useful as coming from another direction, not reinforcing your devotion to supplements, but volunteering a word of self-restraint.
Workouts, and concentrated nutrients and drinks?
I was mainly wondering whether I should take Dextrose right after a good workout, and if so - how much would you recommend?
I currently take:
etc. etc. etc.
-----------------
If I may, are you, Hallucinogen, doing your regular workout for exercise because exercise is good for your health, or for reducing because you are overweight, and being overweight is unhealthy for living a good long life?
If you are healthy and within the normal range of weights for your body physiognomy and your age, and if you do workouts for exercise that is intended to take the place of physical exertions, good for your anatomy and physiology -- as the saying goes, Use it or lose it, allow me to suggest that you need not take any special nutrition supplements; and after any exercise where you lose water from perspiration, drink water.
Just keep to an adequate diet of balanced and variegated menus, that is, dishes, representing meats, sea foods, dairy products, vegetables, fruits; and of course minimum alcohol intake and no smoking.
You can channel money spent for food supplements to the purchase of good books and informative periodicals.

In your case, Shepard, I think you do consume a big quantity of nutrition supplements and nootropics.
I used to work as a volunteer in a hospital, and I know that just to keep track of your devotion to the substances you feel you have to ingest faithfully everyday, adhering closely to your schedules, is a big hassle in terms of logistics of buying, storage, and dispensing to yourself.
For which account, you are not as free as you would be, if you just give attention to eating an adequate balanced diet at every meal, as I have described such a repast to Hallucinogen.
People generally live a very healthy and long life with such a simple always and readily available food program.
As a word of caution, all those artificially manufactured substances can be a stressful ordeal on your kidneys and liver, leading to all kinds of stones in your body organs, and in future years complications that might result in a compromised physiology and shorten your remaining years.
Well, I will stop here, with just one last word: If you are naturally sickly and weak, or in old debilitated years, then perhaps the use of artificially produced nutrients and brain enhancing drugs might be helpful.
