So I'm looking to lower estrogen, stress hormones, increase test + have better mental clarity and energy.
Doing a peat diet, lots of fruits, some vegetables (potatoes, carrots), a bit of meat+gelatin, seafood, honey, some eggs (don't really like eggs), orange juice, cheese, yogurt, milk, etc.
Right now I'm taking gelatin and it's working pretty good, no discomfort. I've been trying drinking coffee and taking caffeine+l-theanine and it works pretty well for energy. I've been taking some magnesium salts bath and got given some "ancient minerals" topical magnesium. On days where I feel "off" - I've been taking 2 300mg aspirins.
Supplements I'm thinking about
Vit A - Could do with a bit more vit a, don't eat that much carrots or high-retinol foods (liver)
Zinc - I've taken zinc supplements before, didn't really notice much difference but probably beneficial.
Vit E - I intake about 5g a day of PUFA and only 3mg of vit e with my diet so should probably get more vit e
Vit K - I don't eat much spinach or kale, so little k1 and i'm not certain of a high vit k2 content in my foods
Vit D - I live in a super sunny place so not really that important
Creatine - Ehhh. I've taken it before but it just seems to add water weight and tastes like chalk, 5g is a lot of ******* powder.
Supplements I'm not interested in
Vit C - Get enough from oranges + orange juice
Calcium - Get enough from dairy
Pregnenolone - Prescription only
DHEA - Prescription only
Not sure about these
B vitamins - get over 100% RDI in all
Manganese supplements - Get 1.4mg in diet and can get more
Copper supplements - Get 1.4mg in diet
Selenium - Get 85.4ug in diet
In conclusion, I'm thinking of supplementing with vit a, vit k, vit e and zinc. A few drops of estroban + a 30mg zinc supplement would cover that. Thoughts on my picks? I am ******* up anything here?
