What other supplements besides Omega 369 could be beneficial to my health?

I am currently taking Nature Made Omega 3-6-9 tablets three times a day. I was wondering if there are any other/additional supplements or daily multivitamins that could be beneficial to my overall health. Also, I am a male in my early 20's and healthy overall. I exercise about 5 times a week and eat well. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys! :-)|||You should try a Super B Complex - (Vitamin B-12, B-6, C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Folic acid and biotin) for energy %26amp; metabolism. Ginseng is an antioxidant / energy which increases the body's resistance to stress while giving you a small energy boost. Drinking Concord grape, blueberry, or black cherry juices is a great source for antioxidants. Juices cleanse your body of free radicals.|||A B complex supplement is very good for the brain functions and especially good for nerves, especially in times of stress.





One of the most important supplements is probably Vitamin D. Research now say that most if not all of us do not get enough vitamin D. It is hard to get enough vitamin D from our diet, and we get no vitamin D from the sun from about October through April. Vitamin D boosts the immune system and fights off sickness like the flu. Doctors want the government to boost the RDA of vitamin D up as high as 2,000 mg per day. Most good multivitamins have about 700 mg of D, so you could take vitamin D supplement of about 1000 mg every day in addition to the multi-vitamin. D3 is the best form of D. And they aren't expensive either, which is always good.





CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10) could he helpful to you. A CoQ10 supplement becomes more important as you age. Since you work out, you are probably used to how you feel during and after exercising. If you try CoQ10, you might notice a difference in your energy levels during the exercise. It also makes me feel as if I am able to use oxygen better when I take CoQ10.





I dont know much about the omega supplement you are taking. Americans get far too much omega 6 in their diet, which makes the ratio of omega 3 to 6 ratio unhealthy. The omega 6 in our diets are from all the junk and processed foods and eating too much meat. You could eat more fish like salmon or take fish oil or even flax seed, they are all high in omega 3.





Getting your vitamins and minerals is best from food, so eating a healthy diet is most important. vegetables are the most important foods, all vegetables....except corn which is a grain I believe.
