• Synthetic nootropics often trigger short-term reactions & deplete vital nutrients like magnesium over time

• Extreme therapies like saunas or cold plunges drain essential minerals, leading to hidden side effects
• Each brain cell holds up to 2 million mitochondria, making proper nutrition essential for brain energy

• Too much calcium with too little magnesium makes bones brittle rather than stronger
• Most fish oil supplements undergo heavy processing, oxidize easily & often cause harm while algae-based omega-3 offers a safer option
• High doses of vitamin C support collagen, bone & artery strength far beyond the minimal RDA
• Mega-dosing one nutrient (like iodine or zinc) throws off balance & depletes others your body needs
• Food-based, methylated B vitamins support mental health & epigenetics better than high-dose synthetics
