I want something effective as well as safe of course.
Be careful.
Keep in mind one thing - the body needs balance to function properly. Oftentimes, people will supplement one mineral and upset that balance. For example, guy I knew was all about taking mega doses of magnesium. Well he threw off his electrolyte balance and developed an irregular heartbeat. There are also other ingredients you need to be aware of contained in supplements. There is a popular supplement out there that recently was found to contain high levels or arsenic and lead. I think labdoor had a report on that back in 2016. There is little/no FDA regulation and oversight of supplements.
If you feel you must take something, probably stick with a high quality multi vitamin and some whey protein isolate. Eat a balanced diet, and lots of water. Exercise, sleep, yaddi yaddi. Shop the outside aisles of the grocery store. If you must supplement further probably best to consult a licensed nutritionist or functional medicine practitioner rather than rely on the "bro science" the pilot forum will offer.
Best of luck to you and be careful!
