Supplements: what the heck is Dr. C taking? 🤔

Hey crew,

I got asked by an IG follower what supplements I am taking, and whether I was consuming everything on my supplement guide (you can find the guide in the Functional Athlete Secrets 101 course on Nutrition module).

The answer is NO I am not taking everything on my supplement guide - that is more of a comprehensive list of suggestions to suite your unique needs.

Here is my current stack:

Morning:

TL Multi-vitmain
TL Krill oil
TL Gut health (probiotic)

Day-Time:

TL Whey protein x 1.5 servings (~40g protein - usually in the morning for a 'snack')
TL HMB creatine (3-4x days per week post workout)
TL Hydration (post-workout)

Night-time:

TL Joint Support
TL Magnesium bisglysinate

And for those of you who don't know, I have Crohn's disease (got dx with it August 2023), so I am under the medical attention of a physician who has helped me get my inflammation under control medicinally to prevent the need for any severe surgeries. So far I am feeling incredible, and I know the supplement stack above has helped me in my recovery from this.

The above stack is what works for ME - everyone is different and has different nutritional needs. I always recommend using supplements to help make up for what your diet lacks. When you use this approach, you won't waste money or consume things your body doesn't need.

If you have any questions on the above stack, or need any suggestions, drop them below.

Cheers to a new week - go get it!

Dr. C
