What supplements do you take and why?

I have been taking viviscal and biotin for hair growth, and I have been having good results : )

 
Tumeric !! It eats cancer or at least makes your brain think it does and that works too lol

 
I don't take much, and I agree with an earlier post that most supplements are just expensive placebos that feed into a huge multi-billion dollar industry that's designed to scam you out of your money. But there is some solid science behind certain things. I take whey protein, because it's a convenient way to get enough daily protein which I need because I lift weights 4-5 days a week and cycle 100+ miles a week. I also take 5mg creatine daily and a fish oil supplement. That's about it! My diet is pretty well-regulated with lots of lean protein, veggies, healthy carbs and fats.

 
For athletic performance, primarily endurance: glutamine, creatinine, optygen, amino acids.  Whey protein strength.  Fish oil for heart and related.  B1, B12.  Something called FocusFactor for memory and concentration.  Glucosamine for joint health.

 
I've been looking through some old medical journals and just read more about boron. The kind you buy at the store for your laundry--20 Mule Team Borax?It is a mineral which has been depleted in our soil, therefore it's not in our food because farmers don't add it anymore. Apparently, it's the cure for arthritis. They sell it in the US in capsules in some places-but my Canadian friends say in places it's been banned. Also, in other countries. (The pain management doctors have secret meetings and plan things like this to keep themselves in business.

Not really-that last I just made it up).

If you suffer from arthritis, you can buy the box of borax, $5.00- mix a 1/16th tsp in a 2 Liter bottle of water and take tablespoons full of it every day, working yourway up to 3 T a day 3X's or more a day. . Your arthritis pain will subside. I just started taking it. Damned med industry.

 
I take a fat burner in the morning (to wake up + it’s got a lot of natural stuff in it including vitamins)

whey protein (for muscle and protein intake) 

amino acids (for recoveries after workout) 

Creatine HCL (for strength when working out) 

Multivitamins (overall health)

and ambien at night that my doctor prescribed me for my insomnia

….It all does get pretty expensive though tbh but if it’s for your general health why not. My doctors never diagnosed me with anything other than insomnia for about 6 years now

  1. P @ psychedpsych: Have good day people, and I hate texting messages lol
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  11. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
