Anonymous says, I'm a physically active male in my thirties. Do you have any general supplement
recommendations? I don't make general supplement recommendations. My recommendation for anyone
would be do a dietary analysis. See what you're not getting from your diet. Either make up for
that with foods or with supplements. If the foods are impractical, do nutritional status testing
where it makes sense. Comprehensively, if you have enough financial resources or just where it
makes sense based on signs and symptoms, fill in more gaps with supplements on an as needed basis.
Anonymous goes on. "Also, I have listened to some of your past podcasts, in which you
provide extremely helpful and simple breakdown of basic principles to follow for healthy diet.
But do you have any tweaks to those recommendations for someone like myself?"
No. I mean, I think a physically active male in your thirties, you're sort of
kind of like peak normal, in the sense that if you just took nutrient
requirements for adult males from the RDA, you're probably like the prototype of
the people. I mean, I don't know what you mean by physically active, but athletes
aren't really a prototype, but sort of decent level of physical activity. A young male is
probably fairly representative of a lot of the data that's collected on nutrient requirements.
But I think the issue is I'm not good at answering general questions. So the best thing to do,
if you want to get a good answer for me, is ask a very specific question. And if you're not
sure if it's specific enough, it's not specific enough. Thank you anonymous to your question.
