No sponsorship deals decide what goes on this page. This is the exact stack I take every day as a surgeon — the same one published in my free protocol — plus how I decide what earns a spot: test with labs, supplement what’s actually low, then retest.
WHY YOU CAN TRUST THIS PAGE
Everything listed here is something I personally take, at the exact doses published in my free protocol. If you buy through links on this page, The Private Practice may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you — it helps fund the free videos and guides I publish every week. I will never recommend a product I don’t use myself.
The Daily Stack
What I Take Every Day
Seven supplements, chosen on evidence and verified with my own blood work. The full reasoning, dosing, and what I deliberately avoid are in the protocol.
01
Vitamin D3 + K2
5,000 IU D3 + 100mcg K2 (MK-7) · morning, with a fat-containing meal
Over 40% of American adults are Vitamin D deficient and most never find out, because standard blood work rarely checks it. The K2 directs calcium to your bones and teeth instead of your arteries.
Full details in the protocol →02
Magnesium Glycinate
400mg · before bed
I choose the glycinate form for its superior bioavailability — without the GI distress oxide and citrate often cause. Taken at night because magnesium also supports healthy sleep architecture.
Full details in the protocol →03
Omega-3 Fish Oil
2,000mg combined EPA + DHA · daily
The anti-inflammatory properties of Omega-3s are supported by hundreds of clinical trials. I only use products third-party tested for heavy metals and oxidation.
Full details in the protocol →04
Creatine Monohydrate
5g · daily, no loading phase
One of the most researched supplements in existence. Beyond strength and performance, emerging research supports cognitive function, neuroprotection, and cellular energy.
Full details in the protocol →05
Ashwagandha KSM-66
600mg · daily
My adaptogen of choice — the KSM-66 extract has the most clinical evidence for cortisol reduction and stress resilience, across multiple randomized controlled trials.
Full details in the protocol →06
NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine)
600mg · twice daily
The glutathione precursor in my regimen. Glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant, and NAC is the most effective way to raise levels naturally.
Full details in the protocol →07
CoQ10 (Ubiquinol)
200mg · daily
Essential for mitochondrial energy production and a powerful antioxidant for cardiovascular health. Natural production declines with age — especially worth considering if you take a statin.

Test, Don’t Guess
Nothing earns a spot on this page from marketing. The loop is simple: run the right labs, supplement only what’s actually low, then retest to confirm it worked.
