I’m actively interested in optimizing my health, and I take a number of supplements to that end. The survey would seem most interesting if its goal was to find how to optimize your health via supplements. As it turns out, none of the ones I take qualify as “minerals”. If it turns out in fact that taking Vitamin XYZ is the single best thing you can do to tweak your diet, then this survey’s conclusions, whatever they turn out to be (eg. that Calcium is better than Selenium) will be misleading. Maybe that’s the next survey.
FYI, I’m taking: vitamin C, green tea extract, acetyl-l carnitine, vitamin D-3, fish oil, ubiquinol, and alpha lipoic acid. I’ve stopped taking vitamin E and aspirin.
