Michael's "tiered" supplement
Longecity, August 22, 2017
Abstract
This document, found on the Longevity forum, presents the dietary supplement regimen of a self-described healthy, young-ish lacto-ovo vegetarian practicing calorie restriction (CR). The author, Michael, presents his current regimen with detailed explanations of the rationales for each supplement, noting the evidence for both the use and potential risks of the chosen supplements. He discusses why he has excluded other common supplements, including lactoferrin, IP6, and glycine, as well as the reasons he doesn’t take any commercial multivitamins. Michael also reviews the research on the effects of CR and discusses the potential benefits of supplements such as strontium, creatine, beta-alanine, taurine, zinc, vitamin D3, phosphatidylcholine, nicotinamide riboside, and glucosamine sulfate, amongst others. He concludes with a representative 2-week CRON-O-Meter analysis of his diet and a list of references. – AI-generated abstract
