Did you investigate the link between Hyaluronic Acid and cancer? In some instances, HA can either be a promoter of cancer while in some cases, HA is an inhibitor of cancer.
Siim -- The homocysteine pathway is quite complex. See Impaired Homocysteine Metabolism and Atherothrombotic Disease, Durand, et al 2001, fig 1. If B12 doesn't work easily, and knowing b12 ACM hazard ratios increase as B12 levels increase, then as your so young I'd suggest to work through the pathway interventions: serine+b6, folate, methyl folate, methyl b12, glycine, creatine, choline/betaine. You should also keep track of exercise and protein/methionine intake a week of so before the test.
Hi Siim, how much astaxanthin are you taking per day? Looks like the Noordcode standard dose brings less than 4mg, doesn't look like enough? Have been taking 4mg myself for just over a month
Hi Siim, relatively new to your channel and really appreciating your sensible approach. It would very helpful to hear the relevant dose ranges on the supplements you take.
Been on 12mg astaxanthin/day for a year & get regular sun for several years & have noticed I never burn, even when a bit too much, since; nOf1 but mechanistically plausible (also omega3s & lycopene from tomato sauce & spirulina/chlorella & egcg green tea & berries & cocoa flavanols). The part about b12 deficiency most likely for carnivores vs least vegans was shocking tho, dang! Thanks great video keep them coming!
I first tried 1x 10mg astaxanthin many years ago after months of fatigue / burnout. I had been tired no matter how much sleep I got. I took the 1x 10mg astaxanthing in the afternoon. I only slept until 3am because I woke up alert and feeling supercharged. I could not get back to sleep so I decided to walk to work (10km). I did a full day at work, no naps, no fatigue. That effect decreased over time, it became more moderate. But I found that the 6mg doses are too little. 10mg was good. So I take 2x 6mg if they don't have the 10mg. But it might depend on the freshness and quality too.
I've been taking astaxanthin for about 25 years when Mercola started talking about it. I take 12mg / day. It's internal sunscreen - never used sunscreen since. I take your other supplements, too.
Glad that my supplement stack has been given the Lund seal of approval. I also use zeaxanthin for AMD protection. I recently added l-leucine to my shake to stimulate muscle synthesis .. (I’m 90% plant based) will continue but damn it tastes bad.
Can you look into Arjuna Bark and Butterfly Pea Tea that is this violet color when you put in hot water and turns red with lemon juice. The violet substance must have some properties that we do not know about. Very popular in Thailand.
Just a heads-up, I read a study showing that long term use of high dosage B6 (one year or more) was linked to nerve damage. I'd been taking the same B complex you've added, and I've now cut it back to one pill, rather than two, every second day. A quarter of the recommended dosage.
Same conclusions here. I'm either taking or already planing to take each of those. High homocysteine can also be due to high methionine intake, which comes with animal proteins.
Had tried Astaxanthin for a bit, didn't see much effect, hence stopped.... perhaps should start again. If we take B12 separately, do we still need to take a B complex ?
Hey Jack, Yes -- Effects of Lowering Homocysteine Levels With B Vitamins on Cardiovascular Disease, Cancer, and Cause-Specific Mortality Meta-analysis of 8 Randomized Trials Involving 37 485 Individuals, Clarke et al, 2010. This indicates that finding the true reasons for elevated Homocysteine is important, rather than just relying on B vitamins.
@@dikshaedythe6042 i heard/read a lot that high antioxidant consumption is linked to higher cancer risk but mainly on social media and no scientific papers
Siim, there are dozens of supplements included in your Supplement list pdf. But in the video you said that you only consume 10. Which ones do you take now?
My Omega-3 index is 12.8% and I never take omega supplements. I eat seafood 2-3 times a week including canned sardines. It’s worth to check the number before trusting “the only way to raise the number is to take omega supplements.”
That's true for vit c and vit e, but as Siim mentions I haven't seen that for astaxanthin either. If you have a paper please post the title. Note those vit c and vit e studies are done in athletes generally striving for maximal performance, which isn't really the goal for those interested in longevity.
@@SiimLand @daviddelvalle2458 But the general consensus on antioxidants have changed. Nowadays science advise NOT to supplement with antioxidants! Right ?? In astaxanthin an exception to this rule? And why?
Never mind the negative people ssimon. This is why I subscribe to your channel because of information like this keep up the excellent work.. thanks for the lot put the supplement preferences
Great video, however I am skeptical about the claim that Hyaluronic acid is of any value as my understanding is that it's a very large molecule hence will be broken down by the gut into something else. Studies are all very well, but if they contradict basic biological principles, how seriously can we take them?
I started a B12 + Folate + B6 a couple days ago (Jarrow Formulas). They have to be the methylated versions, B-6 in particular needs to be PHP (pryidoxal-5-phosphate) I have never felt anything from a B vitamin until I started these, and they improve energy almost immediately. I must have methylation problems, which I suspect for a variety of reasons, including depression.
Appreciate your post. I too have started taking a methyl B complex ( Objective Nutrients ) and noticeable the improvement in my well being physically and mentally. Believe I have a compromised system converting the B vitamins into the active form. Remember years ago watching a news story of people achieving great results of taking folinic acid instead of folic acid i.e activated folate. Hope you continue to experience noticeable mprovement
Thank you for the post. I take Noordcode's Magsix, which contains: - Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal-5-phosphate) 4 mg 286% Is that too much or what do you think?
That's crazy... I just read yesterday a new study about this It could truly elevate the risk of Afib. I bought omega 3 and krill oil few days ago - to make my heart stronger. Now I have no idea what to do. What happened since then with your afib, may I ask?
@@pkavics9182 it was just a freak incident. Been mega dosing fish oil for like 10 years and have had an episode of paroxysmal afib with RVR 3 times. Once 6 years ago then a year later and then just in December. I’m 34. The fish oil is just a small part of the equation, but it’s still a part of the equation.
Yeah right, the amount of time it takes to produce a video like this is not extensive whatsoever, the same stock footage recycled from prior videos and a script. Siim deserves rightful criticism for turning this channel into a series of paid adverts.
@@henrikmadsen2176 That’s precisely the point: this isn’t “quality content” by Siim, it’s sh*tty advertising masquerading as a video as something it’s not.
1. Not a supplement. 2. Bleeding edge stuff. I’ve taken it myself but that is taken not forever but to heal things. 3. Finding place to buy is nontrivial. 4. No human data (though does seem to work 5. Issue of oral vs injection. Bottom line not kind of think Siim would make video on, though there are number of videos on topic.
Human beings are not supposed to live in big cities, breath polluted air, sit in front of screens, eat GMO, bad soil, hormones in your meat, pesticides, fly in airplanes, drink polluted water and deal with lefties... 😂 PS people are not supposed to be obese, get cancer at 8 years old and get diabetes type 2.. I think I make a point..
Read the studies “Astaxanthin anticancer effects are mediated through multiple molecular mechanisms: A systematic review” and “An open label, dose response study to determine the effect of a dietary supplement on dihydrotestosterone, testosterone and estradiol levels in healthy males”
I ve been taking astaxanthin since 8 years between 8-12mg per day. So far no side effects. My skin got much better, no wrinkles ( i m 34), no sun burn anymore, exercise perfomance significantly increased, eyes health improved. From my personal experience best uptake is in combination with mct oil. My skin even got slight tan after few hours taking it. But in my view the best advantage is l, that you still produce vitamin D without getting skin damage.
Don’t finish to understand why a young and fit man, need all these stack of supplement. you still young enjoy that phase, even with all supplement won’t last forever.
I would be careful with B vitamins. There are also studies that show that B vitamins can increase the risk of cancer. I would therefore not take large amounts. Furthermore, omega 3 supplements didn't really work in many studies. Perhaps fish would be more beneficial.
I dont like that you always sell what you are preaching. Alot of conflict of interest going on. I would much rather you take sponsors thats not supplements or just promote nordcode products without affiliate.
Sorry but this guy is one of the most knowledgeable guys in terms of picking supplements and knowing which ones are the best ones almost none of the supplements that he recommends are BS or have to do with just trying to sell you something even his Crump product or whatever you call it is literally hemp seed and pea protein which are the two highest protein sources and the two highest quality protein sources in their respective category the guy is telling you about astaxanthin and that's one of the best supplements in human history so I don't really see what he's promoting that's BS or conflict of interest
Just want to add I kept watching the video Until the End of the astaxanthin part and most likely his product is not the best one you can get just buy Astaxanthin separately (nutrex or valensa) don't buy a blend of anything ever they are usually all rip offs
The Noord Code only contains 3.6mg astaxanthin (4 capsules). Dedicated astaxanthin supplements are 6-10mg per capsule. In my experience and other's experience 6mg is not enough so we take 2x 6mg if the 10mg is not available.
It’s perspective..! If i take something that is working for me, i like to share with all..:) and if i get paid for that share, then why not..?! Making money from your passion is the way not to work a single day :) Making money is good. It can be done without compromising one’s integrity..! And this is the way :)
Personally don’t have an issue with this. Him briefly mentioning products doesn’t distract me. I’m here for the info. Moreover, no one is forcing me to view this. We all have the freedom of choosing what we view here.
I have many videos without sponsors. The sponsored segment makes up less than 10% of the video. Rest is pure value. Also, dozens of people will ask what brands of supplements I take and I provide an option because it's what I actually take every day and have vetted to meet my standards. The fact that supplement videos are one of my most popular videos on the channel prove that it's a topic most people are interested in. Doesn't make sense for me to spend hours answering every single person which this or that I take.
You got rancid oxized ones. But only USP or IFOS5 certified and store in fridge. Test one by cutting it open, smell and taste. High Quality Fish oil is great for all skin problems
@@larryc1616 I've tested a lot of brands and they're all the same. Nordic Naturals, Carlson's, NOW, etc. I also don't buy the pill, I buy the liquid from the refridgerated section.
@@RedHunterOfficial I think I might have a theory. While Omega 3 is important I'm not sure we need the 1:1 ratio that people claim. I was on high omega 3, low omega 6 diet for years and eczema never improved in the slightest and often got worse. DHA is amazingly powerful: at 0.25g of DHA it's enough to inhibit eicosanoid production of arachidonic acid which is the omega 6 equivalent. Then I read in a pubmed article that absence of linoleic acid resulted in severe eczema and no amount of omega 3 helped. I can't find that specific article but I found one titled "*Essential fatty acid metabolism and its modification in atopic eczema*". The article stated that while linoleic acid was elevated in eczema, GLA and AA were significantly depresssed. GLA tends to help with my eczema much more than EPA or DHA, but the eczema is still persistent.
@@tonywong8134 So do you mean that Omega 6 supposed to regulate the omega 3 that is causing the eczema? Ive read that too much of Omega 6 or higher than other omega's might cause inflammation. Then, we should try experiment the omega 3 and 6 ratio and see how it goes
