Seems a little overboard on the dosing, I could see if it were once a day but 3x? Just my thoughts though

As in everything should be just once a day?

 

[RaddishPork]

dude all your taking is 200mg of test. that's like normal TRT levels.

just take some fish oil and vitamin C lol. thrown in a good mens multivitamin if you feel like it. but that is doing the most

 

[Rido]

Vit d, multi, omega 3 supplement. Once a day.

Call it a day.

This. Keep it simple

A very good multivitamin is most important, several grams or more of taurine (protects testicles) and 100mg CoQ10 ubiquinol (protects testicles and heart).

I would get rid of the B5, Cranberry, and the Omega 3. Why are you using these?

Don't take vit C after iron heavy meals as it substantially increases iron absorption which is already high bc you're on androgens.

The B100 is a lot of b vitamins and most probably too high. I suggest you test for serum b12, b9 and homocistein levels. Have you done ay genetic testing on MTHFR?

Definitely don't listen to the above poster saying get rid of omega 3's. That some of the most healthy natural supp's you can take to help prevent neuroinflammation/depression and a bunch of other things. Very helpful for on cycle support.

What are your serum test levels though?

Omega 3's are immunosuppressive and extremely toxic. I used to be pro Omega 3. The studies certainly promised the world, but it's clear that the science was junk. I would stay away from supplemental Omega 3's.

While omega 3's do reduce inflammation and at higher levels this does lower the immune response somewhat and it can be used instead of corticosteroids (like it was in the covid examples) I think you are misinterpreting the data somewhat. Reaching an omega 3 index level of about 8 to 12% has not been proven to be detrimental to the immune system in the context of acquiring new infections. You know, it is one thing to look in a petri dish and see something happen but it's something completely different looking at a large population and seeing the data there.

Can you provide such examples where omega 3's, in normal dosages 2 - 4g, increased acquired infections risk (vs placebo) in a large cohort of user?

Omega 3's are "anti-inflammatory" because they are immunosuppressive, but they aren't anti-inflammatory at all: like all polyunsaturated fatty acids, they are highly inflammatory and toxic.

Since all polyunsaturated fatty acids are terrible at varying levels individually, the better scenario is having a higher ratio of omega 3 to the other ones like Omega 6, but that doesn't make Omega 3 healthy or safe to consume. So if you are consuming a lot of omega 6, then one could make the argument that getting extra Omega 3 could help improve this ratio, but even that is a coping mechanism, because no polyunsaturated fatty acid is good to consume beyond the tiny amounts founds naturally in some foods. Those are not good either, but semi acceptable since they found naturally in small amounts.

Besides, most Omega 3 supplements are rancid before they're even packaged for consumption.

As far as studies, I don't have the time now to go look right now but if you search for negative effects of omega 3, you will find increased heart attacks, strokes, increased cancers all around. Basically omega 3's promote the opposite of what the "good" science promotes.

You're going to have some really healthy piss for sure.

These are some very broad strokes and I have neither the time nor the energy, nor does your opinion (with respect - not trying to be demeaning and purposefully negative/aggressive) really matter, so I'm not going to entertain this discussion any further. But if it matters to you, then come back with some concrete evidence, done on a large group of people, which proves negative outcomes with the use of normal dosed omega 3's, then I'm all ears.

Go ahead and search for negative Omega 3 studies and find them yourself. You won't do it because you don't want to know the truth. Ok. Next time, don't respond to me. And don't encourage random people to take rancid fish oil supplements in the name of the godly omega 3, because you believe in the dumbass blanket statement that Omega 3 is "essential and good for everything."

You can be a smart dude, but you can also be a real dumbass.

Here is one I found in 2 seconds.

Omega-3 supplements could elevate risk of atrial fibrillation

• Patients who took more than one gram per day of omega-3 fatty acids had a 49% increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation, compared to just 12% of patients who took one gram or less of the supplement per day.

Omega3 is a interesting discussion i have heard it can cause oxidative damage if rancid(most are) but its also neuroprotective if good.
Leo Longevity (RiP) had some good videos on it have to rewatch them as he talks about the good and the bad side of omegas.

 

[brutus79]

I would get rid of the B5, Cranberry, and the Omega 3. Why are you using these?

Omega 3 is potentially the most beneficial supplement to overall health you can take. Why would you recommend something like coQ10 that has conflicting reports/overall questionable efficacy over something that 100% works? For fun?

The most important thing is to make sure the source is not heavy with mercury as the cheap ones often are.

There are shitty omega 3 supplements that can be “rancid” (first time hearing that terminology) but the major concern with cheap fish oils would be mercury levels and other contaminants that can affect cheap farmed fish. Getting fish oil that has been molecularly distilled is a good start. Nordic naturals makes a nice product that is a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.
