Here is my list of anti-aging and energy-boosting supplements.
Recently, I have been adjusting my supplement combination, with the main goal of delaying aging and enhancing mental and physical energy. Below are some nutritional supplements that I currently take regularly, along with my personal understanding and insights.
(This is for sharing experience only and does not constitute medical advice.)
1. GlyNAC (Glycine + NAC)
This group is a precursor to glutathione (GSH), which can help enhance the body's antioxidant capacity, reduce oxidative stress, and has research support for mitochondrial function and healthy aging. I take it in divided doses for more stable effects.
If there are liver or kidney issues, it is advised to consult a doctor first.
2. PQQ
PQQ is a strong antioxidant that is said to promote mitochondrial generation, helping with energy metabolism and brain protection. I generally maintain a daily intake of 10–20mg.
There is still not much research on long-term high dosage, so moderate use is recommended.
3. Ergothioneine
This is a natural antioxidant amino acid, known as a 'potential longevity factor.' Its main function is to reduce oxidative damage and protect cells.
Currently high safety, with no significant side effect reports.
4. Magnesium
Almost everyone should supplement this mineral! It helps to relax nerves, improve sleep, and relieve muscle tightness.
I usually take 200–400mg before bed.
People with poor kidney function should pay attention to the dosage, as too much may cause diarrhea.
5. Multivitamin
I consider it a basic supplement to fill small gaps in my diet. However, if there are specific deficiencies, such as vitamin D or iron, additional supplementation is necessary.
Be careful not to overdose on fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).
6. Fish Oil
Mainly for Omega-3 (EPA + DHA), which helps with cardiovascular health, anti-inflammation, and brain function. I generally supplement 500–2000mg daily, and it is better absorbed with meals.
If taking anticoagulants, remember to ask your doctor first.
I feel that this combination stabilizes my energy and increases my endurance. However, everyone’s body is different, and if you have chronic illnesses or are on medication, be sure to confirm with a doctor first.
My principle is: 'First lay a solid foundation, then refine the details.'
I hope this sharing helps you find a healthier rhythm that suits you better.
