Nice try, but here\u2019s a list of what men should take instead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\nWhat you can and cannot take in regards to health supplements<\/h3>\n<p>America will often seek advice from a doctor when they need nutrition advice. Why that is, I don\u2019t know. The majority of medical schools spend only 15 minutes teaching nutrition.<\/p>\n<p>As such, I\u2019m always skeptical of articles listing food items or supplements doctors think we should or shouldn\u2019t eat or take. One example is a popular media company that recently published an article entitled \u201c15 Supplements Every Man Needs, Say Doctors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not a bad list, but it\u2019s a tad pedestrian. It&#8217;s here, with my verdict on its worthiness in parentheses.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A Multivitamin (No)<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin D (Yes).<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin B12 (Only for very specific situations)<\/li>\n<li>Fiber (Yes but a certain kind)<\/li>\n<li>Magnesium (You bet)<\/li>\n<li>Calcium (Nope).<\/li>\n<li>CoQ10 (Sure)<\/li>\n<li>Fish oil (Of Course)<\/li>\n<li>Probiotics (No, Not So Much)<\/li>\n<li>Zinc (Maybe).<\/li>\n<li>Iodine (Sounds good).<\/li>\n<li>Plant Protein (Huh?)<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin C (Sure, if you\u2019re part of a scurvy crew of 18th-century sailors)<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin B1 (Yes, if you often drink yourself senseless)<\/li>\n<li>Collagen (Okay. It&#8217;s a special kind of collagen, and there might be an alternative.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You see what I mean? While there are some good recommendations, most of the supplements are not very useful, redundant, puzzling, or off-putting. Here are some examples:<\/p>\n<h3>\nMultivitamins? Screw It<\/h3>\n<p>Researchers (Fortman, et al.) Three trials of multivitamins were reviewed, as well 24 trials of single vitamins or paired vitamins. There were 400,000 participants. The pills did not reduce all-cause mortality, heart disease, or cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Another study, Lamas et. al., also found similar results. The effects of a 28-component multivitamin on over 1700 patients who had myocardial damage was evaluated. After 4.6 years, they didn\u2019t see any difference in mortality rates.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-nation.com\/lean-built-eating\/stop-taking-multivitamins\/\">Problem<\/a> Multivitamins offer many benefits. Multivitamins don&#8217;t fit all. Even though we all require the same 24 vitamins, our needs for each one vary. RDAs are calculated using a bell curve. While they may work well for a 150-pound male inactive, they may not be as accurate for larger people or for you.<\/p>\n<p>There are also many interactions that can occur between different ingredients. Iron shouldn\u2019t be ingested with coffee or tea because tannins interfere with absorption. The absorption of copper and zinc is also affected by iron. Vitamins E and A can be counteracted by K. Vitamins A, D and E are fat-soluble so they are best consumed with food.<\/p>\n<p>A multivitamin product should include multiple pills containing compatible nutrients. Each pill should be taken at different times to avoid interfering. This is not the most convenient.<\/p>\n<h3>\nB-12? B Smart and Don\u2019t Bother<\/h3>\n<p>B12, unlike other vitamins, is stored in your liver. It would take between three to five years for your body to exhaust its supply if you stopped taking it.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible that this might not be true for vegetarians, people taking metformin (it interferes avec B-12 absorption), or older coots who have trouble with the vitamin. For most people, particularly nutrition-minded athletes who consume a lot meat, fish and poultry, B-12 levels don&#8217;t matter.<\/p>\n<h3>\nFiber. Yeah, Okay, But Let\u2019s Be Specific Here<\/h3>\n<p>There are many types and varieties of fiber. There\u2019s insoluble (wheat bran, for example); non-viscous soluble (inulin, oligosaccharides); gel-forming soluble (barley, guar gum); and soluble viscous, gel-forming, non-fermented fiber (psyllium).<\/p>\n<p>The first one is like eating credit cards ground up. It can add bulk, but it doesn&#8217;t provide much else. That category of fiber, along with the next two, has little to offer unless you\u2019re a connoisseur of flatulence.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth category is called &#8220;The Fourth Category&#8221;. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3cZhbyk\">psyllium<\/a> This is the star. It&#8217;s the one you want. It does all the things you could hope for in a fiber \u2013 lowering cholesterol, reducing the absorption of calories, and providing a feeling of satiety to curb appetite.<\/p>\n<p>It can also normalize stool production (fighting both constipation &#038; diarrhea) and quell irritable intestinal syndrome (IBS), without causing any gases to be formed.<\/p>\n<p>So if they\u2019re talking about men needing more psyllium in their diet, I concur. You can make a big difference in your blood chemistry, and your bowel movements by taking one teaspoon half an hour before each meal.<\/p>\n<h3>\nCalcium? You might be right, but it is best to take it easy<\/h3>\n<p>Too much calcium (more that 1,000 mg. per day) can lead to serious health problems. The calcium can build up in your arteries and heart linings, making them look like the walls of White Castle. Additional calcium can cause kidney stones, or constipation.<\/p>\n<p>This is where calcium is a crucial mineral that people would do well to get from whole food. Here\u2019s the thing: When you get too much calcium from foods (milk-based protein powders, dairy products), a fail-safe system kicks in, and the intestines start limiting further absorption of the mineral.<\/p>\n<p>Calcium supplements, however, are not so safe. There is no fail-safe system. You take more, which means more end up in your urine, blood and kidneys.<\/p>\n<h3>\nProbiotics? Meh<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-nation.com\/diet-fat-loss\/the-scary-truth-about-probiotics\/\">Probiotics<\/a> are a great idea\u2026 in theory. Feed your gut wee little beasties and they go to work for you like so many cilia-covered indentured servants, but there are many reasons why it probably doesn\u2019t work.<\/p>\n<p>For one, everyone\u2019s gut biome is probably as individual as fingerprints, and taking cookie-cutter formulations (as you do when you take a specific probiotic supplement) is probably futile. You can still flood your gut with one or more species of bacteria for weeks, but they will not take root and populate.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also hard to know if your expensive probiotic supplement is viable or not. These items need to be kept cold so that microbial metabolism does not stall. Some are freeze-dried and blister-packed, but they still can\u2019t be exposed to anything above room temperature.<\/p>\n<p>That means it\u2019s imperative that some dolt of a deliveryman doesn\u2019t break the temperature chain of command and leave the box of pills on a sun-drenched porch somewhere. When exposed to heat, bacteria will wake up and begin to search for substances to metabolize. Given that there\u2019s no food for them in the capsule, they go Donner party, subsisting on each other\u2019s corpses until they too die.<\/p>\n<p>However, these studies show vastly divergent results. Keep believing in the idea regardless. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-nation.com\/supplements\/tip-drink-this-for-balls-like-a-brahma-bull\/\">Kefir<\/a>It seems to be more effective at colonizing the intestinal tract than other fermented food.<\/p>\n<p>Prebiotic foods such as sauerkraut or kimchi are the best option. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3s0fMvN\">kombucha tea<\/a> These foods not only bring beneficial bacteria into your gastrointestinal tract but also provide nutrients.<\/p>\n<h3>\nPlant Protein. Huh?<\/h3>\n<p>The original article makes a case for adequate protein, but it\u2019s a little puzzling that the doctors recommend plant protein over whey, or, for that matter, casein. Granted, they suggest plant protein is more easily digestible than whey, and it\u2019s true, but probably only if you\u2019re lactose intolerant.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the vast majority of lactose-intolerant people can tolerate up to 2 grams of lactose per meal, and a high-quality whey protein isn\u2019t going to have anywhere near that much lactose in it.<\/p>\n<p>Plant proteins also don\u2019t pack the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-nation.com\/supplements\/tip-the-scoop-on-vegetable-proteins\/\">muscle-protein Synthesis<\/a> Wallop is also known by the names casein and whey. For that reason alone, it\u2019s probably best to stick with non-plant proteins.<\/p>\n<h3>\nVitamin C. Nah.<\/h3>\n<p>This vitamin was the very first to be a superstar antioxidant. People began to take huge amounts of this vitamin to prevent disease and speed up their recovery from flu and cold symptoms. Unfortunately, studies haven\u2019t found it to do any of that.<\/p>\n<p>Worse, vitamin C can be used to make you sick, even though it is an antioxidant. \u201cpro-oxidant\u201d When you consume large quantities. Overuse can cause the body to produce free radicals, instead of cleaning them up.<\/p>\n<p>Vitamin C deficiency can lead to a compromised immune system. But citrus fruits should provide all you need.<\/p>\n<h3>\nCollagen. Collagen.<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m generally good with this recommendation, as several studies have found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-nation.com\/lean-built-eating\/how-much-collagen-best-collagen-supplement-to-use\/\">collagen<\/a> It can be used to reduce joint pain, and aid in the repair of ligaments and tendon.<\/p>\n<p>There are 28 kinds of collagen. The one that\u2019s supposed to help joints is type II, mostly derived from chicken carcasses, whereas types I and III, generally obtained from cattle, are better for skin and blood vessels, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Second, collagen is thought to be an amino acid that helps joints. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PNBkyz\">Glycine<\/a>The addition of, increases cartilage production.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, collagen. But make sure you use the right type or just take a few extra grams of Glycine per day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/27c6ffbba9c4e2387b5426114c38e3740630c985.jpeg\" alt=\"15-Supplements-Every-Man-Really-Needs\" data-base62-sha1=\"5FSYqxHrpFolQtvg9aeEE86vKux\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>\nThis is it, forget about that<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m okay with the rest of the \u201cDoctors\u2019 recommendations,\u201d My list of 15 health supplements for men is quite different than theirs. (The following items are what I use. This is not journalistic shenanigans!<\/p>\n<h4>\n1. Aspirin<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s one of the oldest drugs around, and if it were introduced today, the FDA would probably never approve it because it causes gastrointestinal bleeding in certain people. However, it\u2019s a true miracle drug. It prevents platelets from becoming sticky and reduces inflammation. It can also be used as a mild respiratory uncoupler to prevent excess free radical leakage, which may increase your life expectancy.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of reports have recently tried to debunk its use, but new research suggests they\u2019ve neglected to take body weight and dosage into consideration. One 81-mg. tablet per day may have the desired effects on people who weigh less than 150 pounds. People who weigh more might need two 81mg. tablets.<\/p>\n<h4>\n2. Chemical Minerals (Magnesium and Zinc, Chromium. Selenium. Vanadium).<\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019re an athlete, you sweat, and thus you\u2019re likely to be deficient in zinc, which, along with selenium, maintains high testosterone levels and shores up the immune system. If you\u2019re a plain old human, you\u2019re also likely deficient in magnesium, and magnesium alone is responsible for over 300 biochemical reactions in the human body, ranging from muscle and nerve function to protein synthesis.<\/p>\n<p>The regular blood sugar levels and insulin are also maintained by certain minerals such as chromium or vanadium. This would take 10,000 words. It is important to note that athletes will benefit from these minerals, especially if they are chelated.

Iodine, or Iodized Salt<\/h4>\n<p>People who live by the ocean usually aren\u2019t deficient in iodine because they presumably get plenty of seafood. Kansas landlubbers, however, aren&#8217;t so lucky. In Kansas, landlubbers are not affected by iodine deficiency.<\/p>\n<p>However, iodine deficiencies have made a comeback because more people are 1) using exotic sea salts (which often lack sufficient iodine), 2) refusing to eat salt at all because of some doctor\u2019s recommendation, or 3) subsisting solely on restaurant food (most of which don\u2019t use iodized versions).<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s too bad because iodine is crucial to human health. You might have dry skin, difficulty staying lean or have trouble keeping your hair trimmed. It could also apply if you suffer from mysterious fatigue, undiagnosed autoimmune diseases, or depression. It plays an important role in various types of cancer and heart disease.<\/p>\n<p>The RDA for iron is just 150 mg. You can easily reach the RDA by adding iodized salt to your food.<\/p>\n<h4>\n8. i-Well\u2122 Immune Support<\/h4>\n<p>This product strengthens and supports the body\u2019s natural immune system through a slick combination of four proven, immune-system fortifying substances:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/biotest.t-nation.com\/collections\/beta-1-3-glucan\">Beta-1,3-glucan<\/a> Prime, strengthen and maintain healthy immunity<\/li>\n<li>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/biotest.t-nation.com\/collections\/micellar-curcumin-lipidized-turmeric-extract\">Solid lipid curcumin particle<\/a> (micellarcurcumin) is used to promote a healthy immune response, neurological health and cardiovascular health.<\/li>\n<li>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/biotest.t-nation.com\/collections\/vitamin-d3\">Microencapsulated Vitamin D3<\/a> To allow immune cells to activate when there is an infectious disease.<\/li>\n<li>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/biotest.t-nation.com\/collections\/epigallocatechin-gallate-egcg\">EGCG<\/a> This is the substance that gives green tea its swagger.

A lot of people don\u2019t like niacin because it can cause a surge of skin-flushing prostaglandins in sensitive individuals, which can also cause a short-lived prickly feeling all over your body. That\u2019s why many people opt for the extended-release formula, which lessens or negates the side effects considerably.<\/p>\n<p>However, studies suggest that the immediate-release formula might work better in the long run, and if you take it with meals, you shouldn\u2019t have any flushing or feeling of angry ants crawling on your skin.<\/p>\n<p>Studies suggest that the daily intake of a href=&#8221; is not more than 2,000 mg.https:\/\/amzn.to\/398xx8y&#8221;>extended-release Formula<\/a> And no more that 3,000 daily for the immediate-release formulation.
