So I’m super into health and fitness.
I work out 2 days a week (push ups, weights, squats, deadlifts, etc). And eat a pretty good diet. And fast from time to time (haven’t fasted in a while though).
I’ve done a lot of fitness stuff, but the one thing I haven’t really used was supplements.
Why?
Cause when I was younger – I was pretty broke, and couldn’t buy anything, but now I have a job, so I can splurge on some.
Also – I’ve heard that some supplements are pure crap.
So, I stayed away…
… Until my doctor tole me that I was Vitamin D deficient. And apparently, African Americans are really deficient cause of our skin needs more sun than lighter skin folks.
Wild, huh?
Anyway, I started taking Vitamin D the Now Foods brand.
Which is dope. I take it every other day.
Don’t really feel any different when I take it though. I’m gonna get a check up in the winter to see if my Vitamin D levels are up to snuff. We’ll see.
The next one I got was Magnesium. Which most people are deficient in – like 70% of Americans.
That’s crazy.
But I do notice a difference. My muscles are a little more calmer. A little more relaxed.
And that’s what it’s prescribed to do – muscle relaxation.
I’m pretty relaxed, well – as relaxed as a dude with cerebral palsy can be.
And my sleep is better – I’m knocked on this stuff. But I am a little groggy wake, though.
Anyway, I just got Zinc last week too.
And it’s good for the immune system.
But I don’t see any major effects. I might not though cause kombucha already has my immune system buzzing!
I’ve also taken melatonin. And that knocked me out, man.
That one is dope too.
Overall, I like supplements, and I’m gonna get many more for my health needs. Like Gorilla mind dream, omega 3’s, DIM, and many more.
Hopefully I can get sponsored for it too.
That’s possible, right?
**Fingers crossed***
P.S. Follow me on Twitter cause supplements are dope.
Later!
