Are dietary supplements useful?
My doctor told me to take psyllium husk for digestive problems. So I thought I'd buy capsules instead of eating the powder.
That's when I came across the following alternative: barley grass. This is also said to be good for the intestines and also contains many vitamins.
Besides the grass, there are also many other things like vitamin D and K2, magnesium, zinc, and fish oil. Is this necessary, and what do you usually take in addition?
I would be happy to hear about your experiences.
PS: I would get anything from Nature Love.
I personally supplement every day and a lot of 😉 I have an incredible added value such as more energy, good digestion, beautiful hair, solid nails.
My goal is to become healthy old without looking at all these woes and good.
I have been using high-quality dietary supplements for years and profit extremely from it. I had, for example, strong love grief, etc., and by probiotics, Vit D, Omega 3, Iod etc.
The whole thing is also scientifically well documented, so don’t let anyone talk about other users here, as there are many users who have no idea and don’t talk food supplements badly, as I had to read several times. There are, for example, nutrients such as Prohormon Vitamin D, which cannot be synthesized in winter, as scientists from Boston have already shown in the 1980s, but many journalists spread the nonsense on the Internet, one can produce it in winter. The only thing you should pay attention to is the quality.
Thank you for the detailed message.
I read the barley grass should contain a lot of vitamins and also wanted to take vitamin D3+K2 in the winter months (both daily from Nature love).
Even zinc, magnesium and omega 3 (no fish).
Is this list good? What would you recommend? Thank you.
I’ve been busy with it for a long time and I know well, but the subject is too diverse, so this would blow the frame.
Gerstengras is healthy if you eat enough high quality vegetables, but it is not absolutely necessary – at least when it comes to chlorophyll. Magnesium deficiency is also very common and also makes sense, since magnesium is required for conversion for D3. Omega 3 is also important – especially if you don’t eat fish. Otherwise, look in at the national consumption study, which nutrients the Germans are poorly supplied with:

“like the prohormone vitamin D, which cannot be synthesized in winter, as scientists from Boston have already proved in the 1980s”
Can I see the study?

Instead of fish oil, I would resort to a DHA and EPA rich algae oil
I always switch between algae and fish oil, as the Omega 3 expert Dr. Schmiedel recommends, as fish oil contains more EPA and algae oil more DHA. It is also high quality and sustainable (by Norsan).
for God’s sake, if your doctor tells you nothing else.
I myself take time 3 weeks of flake seed bowls 2 TL in 300ml room warm water and then let 300 ml of water swell around 5 minutes.
tastes after nix but acts.. A lot of drink.
Capsules would theoretically have the same effect I assume, right?
Please do what your doctor tells you.
you can stir the fleee seeds in yoghurt.
Apart from that, would such supplements make sense?
if you don’t have a proven deficiency, what do you want to “supplement” completely insanely?
I’m 90% sure that’s not a real doctor.
