My recent birthday.....kids bought Yomeishu,........every year....cny, birthday, father day......repeat red wine, Essence of Chicken, Yomeishu, Vitamin C, Sangobion ( I often lack of Iron), fish oil ......

My question is what type of Supplements most uncle level K/ here take ?

Probiotic jer

Q10 or Omega fish oil

Too many supplement will probably make your body forget how to extract it from food you eat or probably your body have excess to certain vitamin or minerals which can be bad.

milk thistle
but i don't feel any difference other than yellower pee

Any recommended brands?

Vit C, D n fish oil je

Seriously? I thought supplement just increase the nutrition

Like vitamin c..

While the body may still continue absorb vit c from foods

When take supplement, it adds more vit c into the body. This serves as an extra dose of vit c.

That is not supplements

Proper single malt 18 years above.

Please don't overdose... chemical supplements should only be consumed if needed.

採陰補陽

absolutely haram

probiotic is supplement la dey.. they help with ur gut.. not only those vitamin2 consider supplement

no need supplement if you don't have issues obtaining and digesting food in the normal way... makan je...

owai--

Vitamin K2.

Vital for cardiovascular health.

Keep heart attack and stroke at bay.

omega fish oil, vit e & lecithin

Zinc picolinate. Zinc good for men (iykyk), picolinate type bc it has the best absorption rate

I take vit D too

Besides those I try not to take more. Better to get nutrients from your food

Coq10
Pre probiotic
multivitamin with B complex
Calcium + vit D

Since u unker, if got cholesterol, then add some statin 20mg

Every morning take one tablet of vitamin c with vitamin d and zinc.

The part that body forget how to extract or absorb mineral is more like my imaginative theory

I always believe that when you use external thing to interfere with your body, then probably you interrupt with your body biology. Like when you take medication for high bllod pressure. The doctor will tell you to take once a day but no one ever monitor whether your current pressure requires you to take one or not. It just become routine and you give no time for your body to cure itself. Most modern medication use external stimulation concept without trying to cure root cause. This is slightly off topic I guess.

Well, certain vitamin or mineral in excess to body can be bad. How much your body absorb certain mineral whether enough or not depends on the food source. I also take multivitamin but not strictly follow instruction like 1 table each morning whatever. I found a good article to read.

just centrum...no la, I think just right

Referring to your high blood pressure story, I thought about that too. Maybe during fever, we shouldn't take panadol? I'm not medic expert, but the reason we take paracetamol is to reduce the temperature, but isn't high temperature also means the body is fighting the illness? I also keliru.

I also got vitamin tablet, I don't take it everyday despite it is labelled 1 tablet each day. My mom don't want to listen though, she's like.. very scared, if one day didn't take, she's scared her body will go zero in vitamins and will be bad for the body.

Zinc picolinate which brand?

Like in flu cases, actually there is no medication for it. the medication given is just like Panadol, make you feel better such as reduce mucus in respiratory tract, etc. It is your body ability to produce antibody that fight the virus. The vaccine concept is the same. the vaccine is just stimulating your body to produce antibody to particular an alike virus.

Antibiotic is different story. It help you fight bacteria and prescribed to you if doctors think that your body is weak to fight bacteria.

👉 California Gold

I've tried Now brand, Blackmores Zinc before. Not great

how do you 'grade' them
based on what criteria?

Zinc effect I can notice immediately. It's lowkey a booster. Those brands they didn't do much to me and yes I finished the whole bottle

B12 will treat a long list of problems. Look it up.

Take cianide for better sleep.

The only supplement that I take is vitC and fishoil.

Vitamin B complex,from Blackmore, MULTI B

Me eat Amway one.

pm good realiable tongkat ali brand

once i heard old ppl say...

whole food and enough rest and sleep are the best to maintain health...


no amount of supplements can replace them

Pristin Gold. Don’t go for brands like Blackmores

For uncle tikaram, i suggest buy brain supplements to prevent from becoming more gila

red fruits & vege

Body never forgets lah manusia mudah lupa.

VitC not added or absorbed into the body too. We use the reaction of vitamin C in the body (invivo). 24hours peed out.
Still the effect of the reaction is long lasting

Just be careful with zinc pico. Transitional metal can increase oxidative stress especially zinc pico lah. I have grayish hair transiently due to zinc pico during covid. Stop and hair color recovers

Wow. So much adaptogens and pro testo. Bodybuilding?

I took most of this. Plus another 10-15 more . This is not for covid or long covid only.

One slice of guava, enough VitC for a week.

Haven't taken any supplement for almost 6 decades,

Just eat plenty of local fruits.

Triathlete

Unker play Eu Yan Sang, Herbal Farmer fir some tonic drinks, slimming tea, blood pressure herbs, sleep well herbs, boost vitality powder...

My last check up doctor recommended this to me. Been taking it for 1 month so far.

Bukan kira macam ini. Ur body will recommend for vitamin c is "75 milligrams (mg) a day for women and 90 mg a day for men" upper limit is 2000mg.

https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyl...%20mg%20a%20day.

Supplement is a easier way to get all nutrition without makan all difference food. Like Zinc, calcium etc. it just make it simpler
Your body is limit on certain dose. Overdose is useless. Supplement is just for u to makan ngam ngam the dose without makan all different food.

Like Protein overdose will convert to uric acid, Carbo overdose will convert to fat and so on

Few keto sup too but long time no take. Uncle not so dicipline too.. not daily take everything but ikut secukup rasa. Exception is
The reason so much supplement is because i makan not so clean lah.

Agree. The older the more intolerant to food we get.

i was suffering from plantar facitis for nearly 3 years, really pain in the morning that few times after hard games i couldn't even walk.
i kena this long term injury after MCO where i went running over the limit everyday do hard run and was doing a lot of sprintings.

middle of this year after my mount KK climb, it was really bad. until i discovered about taking tumeric + milk (add black pepper for better absorbtion) every night.

now i do not have that jabbing pain anymore in the morning, can feel that i'm 88% recovered.


so if you have join pains, due to inflamation you can try this.

Candy b

Viagra seems ok for me.if i am playing with 20 years old.

Cialis when i wanna go for holiday with my wife/ gf.

Rest just normal vitamins. Vitamin e and c is essential.

wow, thats a lot, have to google what it is

my mum taking type 2 collagen for the joint , calcium mag + vit D, oat fibre, fish oil, folic acid (to prevent side effect of the med she taking for arthritis), sometimes vit C and B

I take turmeric capsules plus high potency cordyceps capsules (joint inflammation). Adding to this is the usual fish oil and vitamin B complex alternating with Neurobion (multi-B). If I eat a lot of curry in the week, then I take less tumeric capsules. I'm not into boiling turmeric, ginger and pepper soups as it's time consuming, which is good as it also increases body temperature which keeps cancer cells away.

For bad knees as long still have liquid in between the knee caps, I do a lot of stretching exercises which keeps my knees limber and do a lot of walking up the stairs whether at work or home.

* Plus running on tarmac after 50 is bad for joints. Try brisk walking uphill and less downhill. Unker stopped marathons at 55, so run in gym for cardio now.

I'm using tumeric powder, ginger power and crushed black pepper.
All I need to do is to just heat up the milk ( not too boil).
And mix the 3 ingredients into the warm milk
Add a bit of honey.

I will get joint inflammation each time stress from work, all different places, last one was metatarsal, before was knees, then fingers keep moving, stress is the trigger

Does turmeric help ?

no idea bro

better you get consultation from specialist/doctor first

mine was from sports injury. not stress.

3 years no rest ah? i realised i got it before the hm.. just not obvious.. after hm direct cant walk. been like this 2 3 months. weekly i go for foot masat ask him hantam the heel part.. now i think at 80%.. have not run since then

3 years no rest.
still continue do sports, and even climbed mount kk (i took pain killers during this climb).

tried once to rest for 1 month, not much help. Plantar still pain.
after that, didn't care. still do my usual exercise and sports. after that, will ice that area to reduce imflammatory.

suffer the most when i wake up the the morning, the first few minutes after i get down from the bed will feet the tapak kaki like jabbing pain. once loosen then OK, not too bad. but once the foot relax, like after sitting long time, pain again.

Surbex Protect. recommended by doctor

been taking for few years now. used to nose bleed and no longer nose bleed up to date. cukurr

recently unker went for perkeso free checkup

bp, urine, sugar level all ok except cholesterol quite high

doctor awek said can try fish oil

boughted and makan. so far ok. sleep/wake up timing seems improved

anyway to TS, dont listen to /k/ eat mat chart supplement then eat mat chart

listen to doctor

I took zinc oxide. Later read on internet that is bad.

Someone here said about zinc pico, and now that also need to be careful with.

Susah ni macam.

Sorry. What i meant is not that zinc pico is bad. Its just that the absorption is better than zinc oxide. Trace element better take from food. Hence i prefer to take more red meat. Probably during early illness or flu prevention can take higher dose.

Dr. Nir Barzilai says supplements definitely, unequivocally improve the health of one thing.
"Supplements are really good for the economy," the director of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine told Business Insider.
"They're supporting a lot of companies, a lot of workers," he said of the roughly $39 billion global-supplement market. But whether they're supporting our health is a murkier, more challenging question to answer.

When it comes to aging, Barzilai and other leading longevity experts say the supplement regimen you should choose to live a long, healthy life won't be one single, straightforward routine. It should be unique to each person and each moment in time.
"It should be driven by the biology of your body," Dr. Andrea Maier, who codirects the Centre for Healthy Longevity at the National University of Singapore, told BI. "Do not just take things."

Maier's own research has shown her that many supplements are not living up to their label claims and that everyone reacts a little differently to each pill they pop. Though she does recommend supplements to some of her patients at private and public longevity clinics in Singapore, she also takes a very personal and scientific approach to the task of prescribing them.

Because our body's ability to absorb nutrients diminishes as we age, it's true that supplements may help some people improve their longevity in certain ways if taken judiciously.

Here are five of the buzziest science-backed supplements around and what they may do for aging bodies:
Vitamin D
The supplement is taken by a long list of aging and longevity experts, including the immunologist Anthony Fauci and the biohacker Bryan Johnson, who wants to live forever. Vitamin D is essential for our bone density, helping us convert calcium into strength.

Generally, we absorb most of our vitamin D from the sun, so many people choose to supplement their vitamin D intake in the wintertime when they aren't getting as many rays outside. But you can also get vitamin D from a diet rich in fatty fish such as salmon, as well as fortified milk and egg yolks.

Barzilai says that even though his vitamin D levels are low, he doesn't supplement this nutrient.
"The only thing that vitamin D helps is for osteoporosis," he said.

And, he says bone scans suggest "my bones are really thick," so he doesn't think he needs to supplement.

Fish oil
Fish oil is a great heart-health protector, providing plenty of omega-3 fatty acids to help improve cholesterol. There's some evidence it's also good for preventing and improving the swelling and pain of arthritis through some anti-inflammatory properties.

But you can also get plenty of omega-3s from eating walnuts, salmon, or tuna. Eating your omega-3s in fish and nuts makes it easier to pack in a whole host of other nutrients too. Nuts, for example, are a great source of fiber, magnesium, and vitamin B6, while salmon is great for improving vitamin D stores and vitamin B12.

NAD+ boosters, such as NR
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a key enzyme that our body uses to create energy. It can help maintain tissue health, keep DNA repaired, and improve immune function and metabolism.

Both nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) are precursors that may help us produce more NAD+, and they have become popular antiaging supplements. But last year, the US Food and Drug Administration said that because NMN is being investigated as a drug, it "may not be marketed as or in a dietary supplement." NR is still allowed to be sold as a supplement, and some studies have suggested that it has decent anti-inflammatory properties that can help support healthy aging. More NR studies are needed targeting populations with NAD+ deficiencies to know for sure what benefits the supplement might provide to those who could use it the most.

Fisetin
This chemical compound, naturally occurring in brightly hued strawberries, persimmons, onions, and apples, is a great inflammation fighter that may help clear out old, toxic cells that build up as we age.

The longevity researcher Paul Robbins says he takes it every two weeks, and his "cranky" knee always feels better afterward. Other aging researchers are excited about the potential of fisetin to improve conditions as varied as arthritis and Alzheimer's. But many experts caution people to wait a few years until more is known about the benefits and risks of popping it at home.

Magnesium
Magnesium is a kind of wonder mineral for the body — great for maintaining healthy muscles, bones, nerves, blood pressure, and cellular health.

The longevity doctor Peter Attia pops several different kinds of magnesium every day to promote healthy aging. But you can already get a lot of magnesium just from eating a healthy plant-based diet full of dark leafy greens such as spinach, bananas, avocados, nuts, and beans.

Fine-tune your diet and exercise routine before you try supplements, experts say
There is no single supplement protocol all aging experts endorse. Instead, they universally agree that a healthy, plant-heavy diet rich in nuts, legumes, fruits, and vegetables will serve aging bodies very well.

And yet, in the US, more than half of American adults still take some supplements. Maier believes that's, in large part, to help ease anxiety. By buying a pill, we can feel as if we're taking charge of our health in a country where there's no drug that's ever been FDA approved for antiaging and no supplement recommended to prevent some of the most common age-related diseases and causes of premature death, such as cancer and heart disease.

Maier doesn't take any supplements, saying that her healthy vegan diet seems to get her what she needs. Barzilai takes only a homocysteine supplement "that has folic acid and vitamin B, or something like that." He said that's due to a specific genetic imbalance he has.
"That's different than, 'Let's just take any vitamin that somebody said is nice,'" he said.
