These 5 supplements are natural substances found inside our bodies and/or in the food we eat. I have found no significant safety concerns in the literature concerning these supplements. There is significant research demonstrating numerous complementary benefits these substances have on each other and have on autonomic nervous system homeostasis, the key to health.

I have performed personal research looking into 3rd party testing and quality control of the companies I recommend below. Most supplements and vitamins basically give you expensive pee, and no more. It is important to verify the quality of the products you take.

This does not serve as medical advice. I am simply providing you with my supplement regimen. Always communicate with your medical provider prior to changing or adding anything to your supplement regime.

Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN)

• 0.5-1.0 grams per day. Mix powder with something with fat in it, like whole milk, yogurt, salad dressing, etc. NMN is lipophilic and the lipids coat the molecules and provide protection from the hydrochloric acid in your stomach.
• NMN is converted to NAD+ inside the cell and helps cellular repair, mitochondrial function, autonomic nervous system homeostasis, brain health, and more, via numerous mechanisms that have been, and are being, heavily studied. The FDA is trying to make this a prescription medicine to make money off it, secondary to its potent efficacy.
• This comes in capsules and other forms, however, the powder form is the most cost-effective.

Resveratrol

• 0.5-1.0 grams per day. Mix powder with something with fat in it, like whole milk, yogurt, salad dressing, etc. Resveratrol is lipophilic and the lipids coat the molecules and provide protection from the hydrochloric acid in your stomach. I mix this with the NMN and drink it with whole chocolate milk.
• Resveratrol inhibits body-wide pro-inflammatory markers such as interleukin 1, interleukin 6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a).
• This molecule is included in a lot of excellent Covid treatment protocols secondary to its potent anti-inflammatory effects.
• This substance is the beneficial thing in red wine you hear about from time to time. However, to get a sufficient concentration of resveratrol per day, you need to drink somewhere around 200 glasses of wine, per day…. Challenge accepted!! Hahaha.
• This comes in capsules and other forms, however, the powder form is the most cost-effective.

Glucoraphanin (Broccoli Sprout Extract)

• Glucoraphanin stimulates the Nrf2 pathway. This is an anti-inflammatory pathway that has regulatory and homeostatic effects on gene expression involved in cellular detoxification and repair.
• Activation of the Nrf2 pathway has been shown in research to improve symptoms related to multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue, metabolic syndrome, and more.
• I take the recommended dose of the bottle.

Omega 3’s (DHA / EPA)

• There is excellent research on omega 3’s (EPA / DHA) showing potent body-wide anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting pro-inflammatory markers such as interleukin 1, interleukin 6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a).
• EPA and DHA provide vascular protection, improve heart health, immune function, nervous systems function, autonomic nervous system homeostasis, and more.
• The easiest way to get enough omega 3’s from food is eating wild salmon on a consistent basis. Sockeye salmon typically have the highest fat and omega-3 content.
• Sockeye travel the farthest from the ocean upriver to spawn, on average, compared to any other salmon species. For this reason, they develop more fat stores to provide energy to make the incredible voyage to continue the circle of life.
• The recommended daily dose for EPA / DHA from scientists and doctors I trust is 2-4 grams per day.
• Try to get about 50% DHA and 50% EPA.

Vitamin D

• Vitamin D is not actually a vitamin, but a hormone. A vitally important hormone.
• It is necessary to have sufficient vitamin D levels in order to maintain and improve bone health, immune function, amplify protection against viral and bacterial infection, reduce widespread inflammation, and much more.
• The FDA recommendation for “normal” D levels is 30-50 nanograms per milliliter.
• Ideally, you want to maintain a level around 70 ng/ml.
• The vast majority of the US population is deficient in vitamin D. This leads to all sorts of health problems.
• The skin absorbs UVB radiation from the sun and converts it into vitamin D. You must have direct skin contact to maximize this process. Sunscreen and windows almost completely block UVB radiation, and therefore, your ability to produce vitamin D.
• Nowadays, people simply do not go outside, like ever. And if they do, they typically apply sun screen.
• According to MD’s and PhD’s I trust, most people should take 5,000-10,000 IU’s of vitamin D per day.
• There are some stories about overdosing on vitamin D. This is largely false. If you look at the research, in general, your body can only utilize about 20,000 IU’s a day. Our body has a failsafe mechanism to break down excessive vitamin D. The research concerning overdose includes people taking extremely excessive daily doses, 60,000 to 100,000 IU’s.
