#2There are two great YouTube channels I recommend following:
Dr Brad Stanfield:

Dr Rhonda Patrick:

Note that they're more about anti-aging and general health, but some nootropics will also be covered.
Dr Stanfield will usually list his current supplement regimin in each video. Currently it's:
Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) 1g, Sulforaphane 8mg, Niacin 50-500mg, Trimethylglycine (TMG) 500mg, Vitamin K2 MK-7 90μg, Vitamin D3 3,000 IU, Omega-3 (DHA/EPA) two capsules, Hyaluronic Acid 200mg, Pterostilbene 100mg, Collagen 10g, Niacin 50-500mg, Zinc 8.4mg, Metformin 1g, Melatonin 300mcg, Magnesium Taurate 125mg

Wow, is this available in the US without prescription? It's a diabetes drug and has a lot of side effect. And 1g is also a lot.

#5My personal trainer strongly recommended daily dose of creatine (~5m), but it has also had noticeable effects in daily energy (especially during the pandemic when mostly chair-bound).
Otherwise I suppliment fish oil (or algae), vitamin D (5000 IU/125mg), standard multivitamin, choline (650 mg) since i cant stomach eggs every day.
I've also had good experience with B12 and Vinpocene but not regularly taken.

#6None. Why waste your money? I eat a variety of fruit, vegetables, nuts, and legumes, along with regular exercise outside.

Stop eating so much. Learn how to fast properly and over time you will have tons of energy. No supplements needed. It's shocking how we have been persuaded over time to rely on drugs and supplements to feel normal...tsk tsk.

#8Fasting, twice a week, used to be very strict but then dropped back to just having some tea.. fasting is very powerful, gave me my mojo back in mid 30s after burnout from top tier consulting firm and grad school, got testosterone boost, clarity of mind, physical fitness and confidence, amazing tool.. but body has to be of the right disposition.

Yup. Food has vitamins, BCAAs, MCT oil, or whatever people are buying these days. The body makes creatine, melatonin, etc.

Rx only. I've taken it for weight gain from mirtazapine along with statins for familial hypercholesterolemia. IF is better but it leads to reduced energy levels, increased aggression, reduced concentration, and is inconvenient.
