Health Supplements You Should Take Every Day

In this video, the speaker discusses health supplements that can be taken every day with no adverse side effects. The first supplement discussed is glycine.

Glycine

  • Glycine is a healthy and safe longevity supplement that can be taken every day.
  • Glycine counterbalances methionine, which most people consume too much of, leading to increased homocysteine levels and accelerated aging.
  • Glycine has many other health benefits such as increasing glutathione levels, supporting collagen turnover, creatine synthesis, heme and bile salts.
  • Most people get only 3-5 grams of glycine from their diet, leaving a 5-6 gram deficit for optimal intake. Supplementing with at least 3-5 grams of glycine per day is recommended.

Collagen

  • Daily collagen turnover requires at least 12 grams of glycine but could be up to 36 grams depending on the recycling rate of glycine.
  • Taking a collagen supplement alone may not provide enough glycine to cover endogenous collagen turnover. A larger glycine intake may be necessary to support it.

Other Supplements

  • Vitamin D is essential for bone health and immune function. It can be obtained through sun exposure or supplementation.
  • Magnesium supports muscle and nerve function, regulates blood sugar levels, and helps maintain healthy bones. It can be obtained through diet or supplementation.

Food Sources

  • Many foods contain glycine, such as pork skin, pork rinds, gelatin powder, chicken skins, fish skin and bones.
  • Foods high in vitamin D include fatty fish, egg yolks, and mushrooms exposed to UV light.
  • Foods high in magnesium include almonds, spinach, avocadoes, and dark chocolate.

Conclusion

  • These supplements can be taken every day with no adverse side effects. However, it is important to note that they do not need to be taken every day if you are getting enough of them from your diet.

Collagen and Carnosine

In this section, the speaker discusses the benefits of collagen and carnosine supplements for anti-aging.

Collagen

  • Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body and is essential for skin health.
  • Supplementing with collagen peptides can improve skin health, slow down wrinkles, and improve skin smoothness.
  • Collagen turnover happens on a 24-hour basis, so it's recommended to take collagen every day.
  • Taking glycine also inhibits advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which break down collagen.

Carnosine

  • Carnosine is an amino acid that helps reduce the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).
  • Taking carnosine before meals can have anti-glycating effects.

Creatine and Spermidine

In this section, the speaker discusses creatine and spermidine supplements for anti-aging.

Creatine

  • Creatine is a powerful sports performance enhancing supplement that also has anti-aging benefits.
  • For people without renal dysfunction or related issues, creatine supplementation has been found to be safe.
  • Men should take 3 to 5 grams of creatine per day while women can generally get away with 2 to 3 grams per day.

Spermidine

  • Spermidine is known for regulating autophagy and having cardiovascular protective effects.

Spermidine Intake and Supplements

In this section, the speaker discusses spermidine intake and supplements.

Spermidine Intake from Food

  • The highest spermidine foods are wheat germ, different kinds of cheeses, natto fermented foods, a little bit of meat as well but mostly just mushrooms yeast and we German.
  • The average person who eats a very diverse and healthy diet might get the highest permanent intake of 11 milligrams a day from Just Foods.
  • Many people who aren't eating mushrooms or wheat germ or something like that different kinds of natto and fermented foods then they're probably not going to reach that 11 gram threshold which you want to obtain.

Spermidine Supplements

  • It's also easy to take a spermidine supplement that helps you to reach at that threshold.
  • There have been no reported side effects to spermidine and it's generally safe so you can take it every day.

Recommendations for Taking Supplements

  • Whether or not you should take all of these supplements depends on many things depends on your diet.
  • Some supplements such as glycine collagen maybe creatine carnosine are recommended for pretty much everyone.
  • If you're eating a lot of fried foods or foods that are glycated, then spermidine is something that maybe you don't need if you eat a lot of mushrooms like wheat germ or yeast but yeah most people aren't just getting that spermudin from the diet either so it's a very good basis to cover the spermint intake with a supplement as well.

Slowing Down Aging

In this section, the speaker talks about slowing down aging.

Biological Age Reversal

  • The speaker is looking for more people who want to reverse their biological age.
  • If interested, email the speaker at info@seamland.com and they will send you the details.
