My Exact Supplement Routine

My supplement routine that I love:

*Use your discernment and speak to a medical professional before taking anything as there are drug interactions and side-effects to be cognizant about, this is merely for inspirational purposes. Follow package directions for when to take it, and how much.*

Even with a good diet, not all nutrients are absorbed, so it is critical for me to supplement for both cognitive and physical health. 

Any brand you have access to works.

Creatine:

It enhances muscle strength and performance during high-intensity workouts. It helps in the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), a primary energy source for muscles. Unflavoured creatine powder can be added to your smoothies. Flavoured kinds are best taken on their own (mixed with water).

Greens Powder:

It is packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients. It supports overall health, immunity, and can improve digestion.

Mix a serving of greens powder into your smoothie. It can include ingredients like spinach, kale, spirulina, or other green superfoods to boost nutrient intake.

Good Protein - Vanilla:

Good Protein is a vegan option when I want to switch it up. Good Protein's All-in-one Superfood Shakes go beyond just protein by offering a powerful blend of essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals, providing a complete and balanced solution to support overall well-being.

Probiotics:

Probiotics support a healthy gut microbiome, which in turn can positively impact digestion. Some research suggests that a balanced gut microbiome might have indirect effects on brain health, potentially helping with cognitive function.

Iron:

Ensuring adequate iron levels can help improve cognitive function. Iron is also necessary for the proper digestion and absorption of nutrients in the gut.

Vitamin C:

Vitamin C supports overall immune function. In terms of digestion, it aids in the absorption of iron from plant-based sources and supports the health of the digestive system.

B12:

Vitamin B12 supports nerve function and helps in the production of neurotransmitters. Adequate B12 levels are essential for cognitive function. It also aids in the proper digestion of food by helping in the production of stomach acid.

Vitamin B:

B vitamins, especially B6 and B9 (folate), are involved in neurotransmitter synthesis and regulation. They play a role in supporting mental health and cognitive function. B vitamins are also important for proper digestion as they aid in the breakdown of food and the absorption of nutrients.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids:

Omega-3s are crucial for brain health and function. They support neurotransmitter function and help reduce inflammation in the brain. They can also support better digestion by reducing inflammation in the gut and promoting a healthier gut microbiome.  

Potassium:

Potassium plays a role in nerve function and muscle control, which could indirectly impact cognitive function. In terms of digestion, potassium aids in the proper contraction of muscles in the digestive system, promoting healthy digestion. I love this supplement for getting rid of facial bloating as well!

Magnesium - Calcium 1:1:

Magnesium supports neurotransmitter function and may have a calming effect on the brain. Both magnesium and calcium are important for muscle function, including those involved in digestion, thus supporting healthy digestion. This is the supplement I take before I go to sleep as it has relaxing effects on me.
