The supplement industry is a sham. They were able to weasel their way out of federal regulations. They often fail simple tests preformed by places like consumer reports.

Get your levels tested at the doctor. If you have any deficiencies then take supplements recommended by your doctor.

>magnesium really does give you vivid dreams.
I might have an inadvertently high magnesium diet cuz my dreams are always vivid and memorable. I dreamt last night, for example, that Yeardley Smith, voice of Lisa Simpson, died in a mosh pit for Four Year Strong. I didn't even know who FYS was (or if mosh pits are even still a thing) until I woke up this morning and checked Yeardley's wiki to make sure she hadn't actually died then googled the words "four year strong" and found out that that is, indeed, the name of a band.
Night before, I dreamt I was in a trailer park, hanging out at a picnic table with some people, then I went into a trailer and there was an FBI agent in the shower and the trailer turned into a booth in a ferris wheel which I was sharing with a mermaid who parked the booth on the top floor of the parking lot for a local mall and I jumped off the roof and flew over a mechanic's shop parking lot that had turned into a desert populated with undead skeletal guinea pigs then I landed in my living room but it had dark-burgundy wall to wall carpeting for some reason instead of my hardwood floors and I said to the guinea pigs that I'm gonna wake up now so I looked at a rotting human skull and woke myself up.

My diet is pretty good, but I do take various supplements. Currently, I take daily:
>5 g Creatine
>4.5 g Fish oil (mostly DPA/EHA)
>2.4 g Glucosamine
>2.2 g Chondroitin
>600 mg Methylsulfonylmethane
>400 mg Magnesium, in the form of bisglycinate
>12.5 mg Zinc
>0.125 mg Vitamin D
It's all you really need. The rest you can get from your diet. Careful how much Zinc you take, you can get the "Zinc Flu"
If you can get dietary sources of the above, that's even better, but for example a good sized steak only contains 3 g of creatine, and no one is eating multiple steaks per day.

You should probably just eat better food. Half that shit competes for uptake, so you're getting less than 50% of it. Zinc and magnesium for example. A lot of the rest relies upon fat for absorption, so unless you take that with a pretty fatty meal, most of it is just getting pissed out later and contributing to the building of kidney stones. I'd say lol but that shit isn't funny, I've seen serious men, who shrugged off knife and bullet wounds, cry like little girls while trying to piss out kidney stones. Fuck that

Just drink water and eat vegetables and organ meats lol. So called carnivores who only eat steaks and burgers are retarded. You can be carnivore but you gotta go all in, eat the organs, eat the brain and eyeballs, etc.

copper deficiency from zinc supplements causes greying because metallothionein preferentially binds to zinc, and only weakly to copper, so dietary copper is squeezed out of the intake pathway. stopping zinc for 1-2 weeks, and then restarting it at 15:1 zn:cu in mg, or 25:2, and not exceeding 2mg daily, will prevent the problem from recurring or getting worse. the same can be achieved with a dozen oysters eaten weekly, or 4-6oz of beef liver taken with coffee also weekly. if the greying happened in patches it's possible to apply copper topically to reverse the effect.

iron and copper oppose one another so if you've tested high on ceruloplasmin and free copper you're possibly iron deficient (one of the few scenarios in which it's probable) and you should have blood work confirm that. even so, i would take a b-complex to ensure sufficient b1-2-6 for glucose metabolism support, and lower estrogen with a daily raw carrot. keeping blood sugar up, estrogen low, and opposing copper to rebalance in favor of iron is all possible and safe with dietary changes.

the problems of high copper are complex and beyond the scope of a chan post. e.g. sweating removes some heavy metals but high copper is capable of limiting anaerobic metabolism which makes endurance exercise difficult, but a weekly sauna could replace that. you can lower copper with orange juice, containing both fructose which boosts iron absorption and vitamin c which lowers copper.

you're welcome. be sure they check both free copper and ceruloplasmin, liver markers for iron, ask for thyroid panel alongside zinc, selenium, iodine and calcium so that if high copper has provoked too much t4, or low calcium, these can be addressed; likewise zinc, selenium, and iodine being necesary for t4>t3 conversion would be useful markers in assessing copper's impact on the thyroid
