210: Which Supplements Should I take?


Listen Later

In this episode, I talk about the world of supplements and emphasize the importance of distinguishing between mandatory and performance-enhancing supplements. Starting with the basics, I discuss the significance of high-quality protein intake and how it plays a crucial role in muscle recovery and overall health.

Moving on, I explore the realm of vitamins and minerals. I emphasize the value of omega-3 fatty acids and their role in brain health, followed by a deep dive into the benefits of multivitamins and how they can fill nutritional gaps in our diets.

The conversation then shifts towards creatine, a popular supplement among athletes. I debunk the myth that creatine causes bloating and highlighted the significance of proper hydration when using it. I also stress the efficacy of creatine monohydrate and the importance of avoiding overcomplicated alternatives.

I touch on nootropics, or brain vitamins, which can enhance focus and concentration. These supplements, like alpha brain, provide an extra mental edge without the jittery feeling associated with caffeine.

When it comes to supplements, prioritizing the basics like high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals is key for overall health. Performance-enhancing supplements like creatine and pre-workout products can be useful but should be used sparingly. Nootropics offer a mental edge without excessive caffeine, while fat loss supplements often fall short of their claims. Sleep and immune support supplements can provide relief when needed.
