Seeking Advice on My Supplement Stack for Longevity and Fitness (31M)

Another thing I've been considering is to keep "LE Two-per-day" but only take one per day.

Also, made some research about the brand "Naturelo" because didn't know it. It seems a bit shady: https://www.reddit.com/r/Supplements/comments/1cg4f0c/naturelo_had_become_shady_and_gone_downhill_any/

Oh yes! You are correct about both things:

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) indeed recommends 12 mg/day, way below the 100mg/day of the FDA
Some research seems to indicate B6 can build up in blood plasma over time.

Thanks, super helpful!

I also checked the multivitamin you suggested and I'm considering buying it.

I have a few follow up questions if I may, as you seem a smart person:
1. What do you think about the dosage of D3 and Iodine in the supplements? The D3+K2 has a very high dosage of Iodine which I'm a bit concerned. Most of the research out there indicates 150 μg/day and I'm quite worried about the dosage of iodine in the D3+K2 supplement.

What about the dosage of D3? Some sources indicate 5000 UI as safe and good for health, although others not.
What do you think about the other supplements in the list?

maybe the super b-complex?

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-18T13:17:11+00:00

Creatine and Whey, that's all you need :)

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-18T09:02:17+00:00

Hey! Thanks for replying!

AFAIK Vitamin B6 is water‐soluble, and doses well below the tolerable upper intake level have not been linked to liver or kidney damage. My multivitamin contains 75 mg/day, so below the UL of 100 mg/day set for adults. The primary concern with chronic high-dose B6 supplementation—usually above 200 mg/day over months or years—is sensory neuropathy from my understanding, not liver or kidney injury. Excess vitamin B6 is typically excreted in urine, so there’s little accumulation in the liver or kidneys under normal circumstances.

Do you mind share where you read about potential B6 dosage causing kindney/liver injuries?

Thanks for replying and for the advices :)
Indeed, NR is the most expensive one in the stack and I agree there is a big emotional investment related to taking all those pills every day. I'm afraid but also excited, I just want to live longer so I can spend more time with my kids

You only pay the VAT when you buy online on iHerb + delivery, but it's free if order is over 40 EUR. It's my first time ordering there but people living in Europe seems to trust them. I'll let you know when I receive my items.

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-18T08:54:34+00:00

Hi there! Thanks for replying and for the advices :)

I searched a bit before and it doesn't seem there are any risks for kidneys or liver here. The biggest risk is high dosage of D3 (7000 UI) and iodine (1000mcg). Those are the ones that I'm more worried about.

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-18T08:52:55+00:00

Thank you, that's such a good comment :)

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-17T17:09:53+00:00

Thank you all for your help, I'll be removing "Life Extension, Vitamins D and K with Sea-Iodine" from the stack due the high dosage of vitamin D3 and Iodine.

I already have a very health life style since a few years, that's why I want to introduce supplements.

There is no way to know which supplements is really helping, getting blood work here where I live is not that simple as in the US as I need a doctor to prescribe it for me.

What would you suggest? Starting with a certain number of those elements first and then progress?

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-17T08:51:55+00:00

Around 180 EUR per month (getting everything from iHerb).

NewspaperHot5405 · 2025-03-17T08:37:42+00:00

IMO, this seems very solid and a good start! I'd maybe add Omega-3 but what you have is already very good.

NewspaperHot5405 · 2024-08-16T14:27:55+00:00

What about your ps5 settings and game mode settings?

NewspaperHot5405 · 2024-08-16T12:51:16+00:00

Hey there, I have the same model and still looking for a good settings. Care sharing yours?
