My Supplement Stack

Forty(ish) and Fabulous, exclamation point.

“My grandparents lived until ninety-nine without taking supplements, and they were fine.” I’m guessing you too have heard some version of this, and while I don’t doubt its merit, our grandparents’ era wasn’t dealing with glyphosate-sprayed produce or hormone-injected meat. They didn’t inhale endocrine disruptors from scented candles and fragranced body washes. They didn’t spend twelve hours a day under artificial light and blue light exposure, surrounded by EMFs from devices, eating produce grown in mineral-depleted soil. And let’s not pretend that constant screen time hasn’t trained our nervous systems to stay dysregulated and our self-esteem to be pulverized by influencer culture. Our grandparents weren’t bathing in microplastics, and their livers weren’t tasked with metabolizing trace pharmaceuticals, synthetic estrogens, and preservatives that accumulate in our bodies through our water and food supply. And they weren’t expected to look good doing it all.

These days, we supplement because what other choice do we have? We’re showing up tired after eight hours, we’re bloated after eating “clean,” our skin’s dull even after sleep and skincare, and thanks to scientific progress, many of us are living into our eighties and beyond… so yes, I’d like to prepare my mind and body for an epic and sharp octogenarian decade.

So, yes, I’ll admit, I need help, and I turn to my supp stack to offer health and wealth.

demi moore in the substance

Here’s my full supplement stack, when and how I take them (click on each name to discover the exact ones I use—after copious research for correct format and dosing).

Morning

Empty Stomach:

Colostrum - The best supplement to repair gut lining IMO. It gives your body antibodies and growth factors that help strengthen and repair the gut lining but… semantics. I shoot a scoopful into my mouth first thing in the morning and don’t even chase it with water (Armra tastes great).

Glutathione - The ultimate detoxer. My liposomal glutathione comes with 20mg of PQQ, which is my latest supplement obsession. At the lower 150 mg dose I take (250-500mg is considered optimal), glutathione helps strengthen antioxidant defenses, supports skin clarity, and aids liver detox pathways. PQQ boosts mitochondrial growth (biogenesis = biohackers wet dream), supports brain performance, and helps reduce inflammation. Together, they’re a powerhouse for energy and cells. I cycle glutathione: one to three months on, then three off. I’ll start taking this PQQ solo every morning when I’m on an off month (and I want new, happy mitochondria).

Citicoline - I’m taking 250mg daily to support brain health, focus, and cell repair. It’s a nootropic that helps your brain make more acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter in charge of focus, memory, and learning. According to my research, this is a non-negotiable for cognitive support and long-term brain health, especially if you have a family history of dementia (like me).
