Currently experimenting with L-theanine to see if it helps me work better.
Do also blood test every 6 weeks of 25ohd to detect if your dose is sufficient. And don't forget to take 10 minutes of Sun while it's in its Zenith to get vitamin D dissolved in water.
- Calcium citrate
- Magnesium glycinate
- Zinc picolinate
- Multivitamin (gender specific)
- B complex (B12, B9, B7, B6, B5, B3, B2, B1, C)

For men, it's further important to cut simple carbs (sugar and HFCS), fried food, high PUFA nuts (walnuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, pine nuts, flaxseed, chia seeds, sesame seeds/tahini, pecans), soy, mint, black licorice, high PUFA veg oils. Also eat a few pistachios, cashews, and sprouted roasted pumpkins seeds (pepitas) daily because only cashews have low PUFAs. Any metabolic, endocrine, weight disorders, and lack of physical conditioning need to be treated too.
I’ve spent the last three years experimenting with supplements, consulting both the Internet and trusted sites like Quora and Reddit. Here’s my current stack (not medical advice and do not treat as recommendation)
Magnesium
Is it just because the dosage is too low?
Or too high. If you get enough of some vitamins in your diet, you don't want or need a supplement for them. And some deficiencies are sufficiently bad that you need a much higher dosage. I don't know if it's been undiagnosed for a while or if it's a combination of COVID isolation + winter, but my vitamin D is very low (found out last week) so I'm on a very high dose vitamin D supplement for the rest of this month before another test to see if it's improved.
This is in addition to making sure i'm eating a decent variety of whole foods avoiding processed foods as much as possible.
I notice a very large difference in my mood and energy and feeling well-rested after taking MagSRT. I don't think it's a placebo, it really feels night and day and persists over weeks now.
