Not OP, but oxidized fatty acids have been shown to be potentially harmful/carcinogenic to humans. However, most reputable brands test for and minimize oxidation. Check out the labdoor ratings for general purity info, and consider buying a fish oil supp that includes antioxidant fatty acids (like olive extracts or vit. E to control oxidation.

I take fish oil, it's the only supplement besides zinc that I can actually -tell- is having a positive effect. I just feel better in general.

At least with respect to Vitamin D (made by body from exposure to the Sun) and B12 (made by bacteria) are extremely difficult to get enough of from diet alone without some form of fortification.

[Anonymous No.8072973]

>>8072958
B12? You just drink milk, use butter or eat cheese.
How the fuck is that hard?

D and Omage 3 is also fine, since whole grain contains both. Fish contains even more. D2 is worse, since that is made from refining D into D2 via sunlight.

Which, for the most part, contain B12 because those animals were given B12 supplements. You're eating supplements one way or the other. But feel free to pat yourself on the back for being a real self-reliant frontier cowboy type.

Also I dunno why you're raving about D2, you do realize just about every D supplement on the market is D3? You realize this? Or are you just cherry-picking fringe cases to make yourself feel smart?

ZMA as such is a trademarked product that you pay about a 1000% markup for if not more

The only studies that suggest it does what it claims to do were funded and run by the manufacturer

I am, as I type, this about to pop some ZMA that I bought out of sheer boredom, so don't get me wrong, I like placebo too

I drink lots of vodka. That cleans out my system, and even cleans my teeth (I haven’t brushed in years, and haven’t had a cavity since).

I also eat a liverwurst sandwich pretty much every day – to counterbalance the effects the vodka has on my liver. I make my sandwiches on seeded rye (because it’s the healthiest bread), with mayo (because eggs are the best protein; I use kewpie, because the msg makes it taste better), coarse mustard (good for the white blood cells), zucchini pickles (because they taste good), and a bunch of baby spinach (just for filler; it could honestly be left out).

I also eat a lot of canned fish (mostly sardines, but also the occasional fancy smoked oysters) on saltines. They give you all your essential amino acids, and provide a nice opportunity to try out various hot sauces, which are generally very low in calories, while high in flavor and immensely prodigious to healthiness.

Aside from that, I drink large amounts of water (anywhere between ice-cold to slightly chilled) every day, always through a straw, and sometimes with a lemon wedge.

To each their own, I say, but I’m just shy of 30 and am doing better than most of you.

Your body just pushes the vitamins out if you keep taking them constantly. If you're eating well then taking vitamins is a waste of money.

I take Vit D once a week, mega dose. I avoid the sun/wear sunscreen. I always end up Vit D deficient when I get a routine annual, and it's so closely related to energy, depression, joint pain, you name it, but most of all keeps your immune system kicking against every bug that rolls through your workplace.

Fish oil/krill oil, because I don't eat seafood. Some supplement I get from Mega Red has some joint care additional ingredient hydroluronic acid (dunno). I have achilles tendonitis and two broken ankles, which are slow to recover.

I chew some gummi multivitamins couple times a week, probably just once/day for like 3 days and then I forget for a week. I take them when I have skipped some nutrition the day before, or it's been a while since some salad, good balance or whatever, or if I feel rundown/poor sleep. I think the timed release B complex gives me energy for a solid 3 hours. I alternate the multivitamin with a hair/nails multivitamin formula (high in biotin) which seems to keep my cuticles and nails nicer/less dried out like magic.

I take a melatonin/valerian/camomile bedtime gummi if I have been traveling or need to reset my bedtime and sleep well. Zonks me out within 5 minutes. Or, I drink some "Stress Rx" Arizona tea. Wish it were sugarfree as well as caffeine free. Seems just wrong to drink sugar right at bedtime. But, it also send me to sleep right away.

>let me tell you a true story about immunization
>we didn't get polio because we swam in the hudson

He says immunization. However, immunization isn't just limited to vaccines. Immunization is simply being exposed to weakened bacteria that your immune system can practice on. He said swimming in the river supposedly immunized people in his area. Learn English. Whether or not he is right about swimming in the Hudson is another thing

>He says immunization.
Getting infected is getting infected, whether you meant to do it or not. It is not "weakened" just because you intended to get infected for purposes of later being immune. The pathogen doesn't know how to detect that you meant to "strengthen your immune system", it does the exact same thing either way. And whether or not you show symptoms, you become a carrier, thereby infecting others who may actually be harmed.

Stop confusing stand up comedy for medical advice.
