Hacking Age

Anmerkungen

The market is booming – but which supplements actually make sense, and which ones can even be dangerous?

Right from the start, Felix makes it clear: supplements are not a silver bullet. If you smoke, get little sleep, and eat an unbalanced diet, no capsule in the world will compensate for that lifestyle. However, for those who already live a healthy life, the right supplement here and there can offer targeted support.

Three supplements take center stage: creatine, omega-3, and vitamin D. Felix explains why creatine is the only supplement he can recommend unconditionally to almost everyone, and how much you should take. When it comes to omega-3, it depends on the individual starting point. Felix explains who can benefit and what you absolutely need to watch out for. Vitamin D, on the other hand, is something Felix only recommends if a deficiency has been proven, as an overdose can have severe consequences.

Additionally: Which supplements are mandatory for a vegan diet, why Felix stopped taking both rapamycin and metformin after experimenting on himself – and why he considers the current hype surrounding life-extending miracle pills to be dubious. Only GLP-1 agonists (the so-called "weight-loss jab") are currently seen by him as having real potential for longevity.
