your favorite supplements?

[Guest guest]

ok. i know a lot of people take supplements...

i am not a big supplement type, though i have been convinced to take CLO

regularly. i'm wondering if there's anything else that's critical...so i

thought i'd put out the question: what's the one supplement that you can't

live without? if you were stranded on a desert island, and you could only

take one supplement with you (but you could be assured that otherwise,

you'd be eating 100% WAPF food, including lots of lactofermentation and no

grains), what would it be?

For what it's worth, I take 1/2 t. each of clo (very high quality from

radiant life) and butter oil (also from radiant life). I also take folic

acid (cheap, 800mcg) every day and acerola powder when I have it. I'm not

religious about WAP eating, though, as I eat out at restaurants pretty

often, so I really feel that I need a little extra help.

hmmm... for me the stranded on a deserrt island

supplement would be a good mega dosed multi. I use

Mega for Men from GNC. BUT... I would love to be able

to store a small bottle of Magesium tablets and a

small bottle of GSE in my pants pocket as well!

thats what would be best for me!

Wow! I just opened my own post and need to apologize

for the typos. I guess I have to slow down and run

spell check on even the shortest emails! By the way,

that last supplement for a desert island was

Magnesium.

sorry-

Taking now with the best effects for me of any supplement combos calcium

citrate with D, omega 3 fatty acids fish oil both Trader Joe's, zinc

picolinate, l-glutamine (2nd heal leaky gut month after gf this time ),

olive leaf extract (for any mold, fungus, candida from grain eating, old

high carb diet) Last week added Argentinian beef liver tablets for A and B's

(b alone makes me nauseous). Non food allergies seem to like the liver.

I take a lot of extra calcium and magnesium ... I get tetany when

I don't which is a bad sign! I don't seem to absorb it well

from foods (though I haven't come up with a good

fermented bone mixture ... that would be better). I also

take Vit B because it makes me feel noticeably better, and

dried anchovies (which I consider a supplement, they are

soooo concentrated with good stuff). I person can get

all their vites from food if they have a good diet and good

digestion ... my diet is pretty good now but I'm pretty sure

my digestion isn't ideal (or else I utilize calcium in a way

that isn't ideal).

There is also the issue that in our modern diet we don't eat

bones much ... whole anchovies have bones, which is good,

but for most foods, we take the bones out. Carnivores usually

munch on bones, and meat digestion seems to take a lot of

calcium, so our modern diet may be off in that respect.

Hmmm. No, I haven't had any testing done that way, tho it is

likely a good idea. I'm getting a lot of sun exposure now though ...

at least during the summer (it's a short summber ...).

Can't you OD on omega 3 with that much fish oil? How much was it to have

your D levels tested?
