THOUGH THESE HAVE ONLY BEEN WIDELY USED IN THE 21ST CENTURY, THESE SUPPLEMENTS ARE ALSO TAKEN BY ME:
Resveratrol - taken every morning
Melatonin - 3 mg, four bedtimes per week
Juvenon - taken every morning
Eat a good diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables. Also, get plenty of protein - it's time to start enjoying plenty of lean meat. If you can afford lots of good fish, that's great. One particularly needs vitamins B6, B9, and B12. If you don't get enough veggies, consider a B-complex, but be sure it contains Folic Acid, B9, as many do not.
