The Supplements I Take (And Why)

I’m deliberate about what I put in my body.

I never drink alcohol. I try to reduce microplastics. I don't eat much processed food. I rarely eat out.

I eat a healthy diet - and yet, I do take supplements.


Every supplement I take is something I’ve researched, tested, and used consistently over time. If it doesn’t have strong evidence, practical benefit, and a clear purpose, it doesn’t stay in my routine.

(Nothing here is sponsored.)

These are supplements I use because they support performance, recovery, and long-term health.

Morning:

Creatine I take creatine because it reliably improves strength, power, and cognitive performance, and it’s one of the most well-studied supplements available. I use a flavorless powder in my coffee.

Collagen I use collagen to support joints, tendons, and connective tissue so my body holds up under years of training.

Astaxanthin Astaxanthin helps manage inflammation and oxidative stress, which supports recovery and overall resilience.

CoQ10 CoQ10 supports cellular energy production, which matters for consistent output and endurance.

Vitamin D3 & K2

Vitamin D supports bone health, immune function, and hormone regulation—foundational systems that affect everything else.

Evening / Night

Magnesium Glycinate

I take magnesium glycinate to support muscle relaxation, nervous system regulation, and sleep quality.

L-Theanine L-theanine helps quiet mental noise without making me feel sedated.


Glycine Glycine supports deeper sleep and recovery by helping the body settle into a more restful state.


This is the full list.

Nothing too sexy, just supplements that have earned their place over time.

I'm always seeking new research and evidence-based approaches
