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? :ugeek:

maybe

maybe direct amino acids of gelatine, with silica and vitamin c, may be a more direct approach

as they compose gelatine itself
