Also, for those who don’t lift weights or engage in intense exercise, do you still take it? Have you noticed any benefits in terms of energy levels, recovery, or general well-being?
Would love to hear different perspectives!
I'm not sure I've noticed any benefits, but like the other commenter mentioned, it keeps me satiated until lunch.
A couple other experiments (among *many):
- Lithium oratate did nothing for me. If anything, it slightly depressed my mood. I don't have depression.
- Supplementing with good quality fish oil and magnesium daily has made pretty noticeable differences.
Currently, this is Sports Research Triple Strength Fish Oil. It has the right mix of whatever oils -- I'd need to go look in my notes to elaborate. Most off the shelf pills (including Kirkland) are inadequate in quality.
For magnesium, I am currently taking Doctor's Best High Absorption Magnesium Glycinate Lysinate.
Advice welcomed from the peanut gallery.
It's not really needed and it's much more preferable to get some solid food. It's not hard consuming another 20g of protein with solid food.
My suspicion is that if your diet is otherwise appropriate and healthy, these supplements won't matter.
There's so much information available across the internet on this, both expert and in forums.
Creatine because it gives me more energy during exerrcises.
Whey to complement protein intake during busy days.
I don't think HN is the right place for such broad, open-ended health questions that don't have anything to do with tech or hacking at all. There's so much information available across the internet on this, both expert and in forums.
