The Supplements I’ve Taken Since 2013

Advertisement

I am a registered distribution partner with PM-International (brand: FitLine), and I link to its products on this page. I have personally taken these products consistently since 2013—I stand behind them.

When you order the products through my links, I receive a percentage commission on your purchase. The price stays exactly the same for you—the products cost just as much through my link as they do anywhere else.

This research, the content on this site, the concept behind it—all of this has cost me an enormous amount of time, energy, stress, and money over the years. If my content is useful to you and you want to head in a similar direction, I’d be really happy if that happened through my links—as a small compensation for the effort. But of course you’re equally free to buy the products through another source.

Note on returns: The company offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on the purchase price for its products. You’ll find the exact terms right in the shop.

My Stack

My intake routine over the course of the day—then and now.

1
B-Vitamin Complex with Niacin (powder, dissolves in water)

The product that typically gives me a niacin flush after 10–15 minutes—warmth that spreads across my skin. That’s how it’s been for me since 2013—sometimes stronger, sometimes milder, depending on how I’m feeling that day. My morning product, then and now: shortly after I get up, usually on an empty stomach, I take three scoops of the powder in a glass of water—sometimes the same portion again in the afternoon.

This is my personal perception—not a universal or proven effect of the product.

2
Multi-Nutrient Base Complex (powder, dissolves in water)

With fat-soluble vitamins, trace elements, and plant extracts. My daily foundation back then—and unchanged to this day: about 30 minutes after the B-complex, I dissolve one sachet in a glass of water.

3
Omega-3 Oil with Coenzyme Q10 (liquid)

Then and now, I take it in the morning together with the base complex. For the omega-3 oil, I follow the dosage recommendation on the package.

4
Mineral Complex with Magnesium, Potassium, and Calcium (alkaline powder)

My evening product, then and now: about an hour before bed, I dissolve one sachet in a glass of water. I stir it with a wooden or plastic spoon, let it foam up briefly (for about one minute), and then drink it.

Important to know

The niacin flush—no need to panic

When you take the B-vitamin complex with niacin, the so-called niacin flush can occur after about 10–15 minutes: warmth, often a slight tingling or reddening of the skin. This is a known, well-documented reaction to niacin. Don’t let it scare you—the effect is normal, harmless, and fades on its own after a short while.

Easing in

If you want to start small, aren’t sure yet whether the whole thing is even right for you, and don’t want to spend a lot of money right away, I’d advise you to start with just the B-complex for now. To this day, it’s my morning product. B vitamins contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism.

Other Products (No Commission)

These two products are not affiliate recommendations—I’m not linking to them directly here, but simply mentioning them because they were, and still are, part of my routine. You can get them at any drugstore or pharmacy, or online.

5
Lecithin (granules or powder)

Lecithin was another important building block for me. During the acute phase back then, I took 30 grams; later, as regular support, one tablespoon a day. That’s my experience from back then, not a recommendation for you to take it.

6
Melatonin

For years, I regularly took 3 mg of melatonin in the evening in addition to the mineral complex. Please discuss the right dosage for you with your doctor.

Of course you are completely free to try my overall concept—as I describe it on this website—using products from other companies as well.

I personally wouldn’t choose any other products or companies at the moment. I tried a whole lot of products back then—from Germany, from abroad, online, and from health food stores—and burned through a serious amount of money in the process. The products linked here are the ones I personally had the strongest positive experiences with.

But I can’t keep track of the entire market, and it’s quite possible that things have moved on at other manufacturers too in recent years.

Important note

The products mentioned here are dietary supplements—in other words, foods, not medicines. They are not intended to cure, alleviate, or prevent diseases.

Everything I describe on this page is entirely my personal experience—not a promise of a cure and not a substitute for an examination or treatment by a doctor. What worked for me won’t necessarily work the same way for you.

If you have health problems, please discuss them with a doctor or an alternative health practitioner you trust.
