As a chiropractor for athletes and runners, I’ve spent years optimizing my health and performance—both for myself and my patients. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned? Even the cleanest diet isn’t always enough.

I used to believe that eating whole, organic foods would cover all my nutritional needs. But after testing, research, and real-life experience, I realized that our modern food system is nutrient-deficient due to:

🚫 Depleted soils—our produce has fewer vitamins and minerals than decades ago
🚫 Pesticides & GMOs—these impact gut health and absorption of key nutrients
🚫 Chronic stress & intense training—burn through essential vitamins & minerals faster than we can replace them

That’s why I strategically use supplements—not to replace good nutrition, but to fill the gaps and keep my body functioning at peak performance. As an ultramarathon runner and sports chiropractor, I need my body to be strong, resilient, and full of energy. And these are the supplements I take daily to make that happen.

👉 Bonus: My members get 10-20% off supplements every month! If you take supplements regularly, this is a game-changer.

P.S. In case you are wondering, not all supplements are made equal. I wouldn’t waist money on 90% of them because they are made cheaply and don’t work at best.

If your curious on what to look for in a good supplement, I will write an article on this in the near future so stay tuned… Our goal is to equip you with the tools to take charge of your health!

My Favorite Supplements for Peak Performance & Daily Health

1. Catalyn – The Foundation of Whole-Body Health

What it does: This is my whole-food multivitamin, designed to provide essential nutrients in their natural, most bioavailable form.

Unlike synthetic multivitamins, Catalyn comes from real food sources, making it easier for the body to absorb and use. I take 3-6 tablets a day to ensure I’m covering my daily nutritional bases. I use the chewable kind for my kids as well to help keep them healthy.

2. Perfect Amino – The Ultimate Muscle Recovery & Endurance Booster

What it does: Amino acids are the building blocks of muscle. This supplement helps with muscle repair, endurance, and strength, making it perfect for runners, athletes, and anyone training hard.

I mix 2-3 scoops a day—one before my workout, one after, and sometimes an extra scoop if I’ve had an intense training session. This ensures my body has what it needs to recover fast and build lean muscle.

This is alone has been a game changer for me in the realm of fitness, recovery, and endurance running. I don’t go anywhere without my aminos.

3. Reds – Brain Fuel & Energy Optimization

What it does: This is my secret weapon for mental clarity, focus, and sustained energy—without caffeine crashes.

I combine 1 scoop a day with my Perfect Amino shake to support my brain, circulation, and energy levels. 

4. Symplex M / Symplex F – The Hormone Balancer

What it does: Supports the adrenal glands, thyroid, pituitary, and reproductive organs, keeping hormones balanced and energy levels stable.

• Symplex M (for men): Helps with testosterone production, stamina, and recovery—especially important for male athletes looking to maintain strength, performance, and overall vitality.
• Symplex F (for women): Designed to balance female hormones, supporting ovarian health, energy, and mood. Great for women struggling with PMS, menopause symptoms, or hormone-related fatigue.

I take 3-6 tablets daily to keep my energy levels and hormone function optimized.

5. Drenamin – My Go-To for Stress & Recovery

What it does: This is my stress-support supplement, packed with B vitamins and Vitamin C to nourish the adrenal glands and keep my nervous system resilient.

Athletes and high-achievers burn through these nutrients quickly. I take 3-6 tablets a day, especially after tough workouts or stressful days.

6. Organically Bound Minerals – My Heart & Muscle Protector

What it does: Provides essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which are depleted by stress, sweating, and poor soil quality.

I started taking this after experiencing heart palpitations and muscle fatigue, and since then, I’ve had zero issues. I take 3-6 tablets daily to keep my nervous system, heart, and muscles functioning optimally.

Why You Need Supplements (Even If You Eat Clean!)

Even if you eat a perfect diet, our modern world makes it nearly impossible to get everything your body needs from food alone.

🚫 Soil depletion means our fruits and vegetables contain fewer vitamins and minerals
🚫 Pesticides and GMOs affect gut health and nutrient absorption
🚫 Chronic stress and athletic training burn through key nutrients faster than we can replenish them

That’s why high-quality, whole-food supplements are essential for anyone who wants to perform at their best—whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or just looking to feel better every day.

While these are my personal go-to supplements for general health, everyone’s body is different. If you’re looking for specific nutrients tailored to your unique health needs, I highly recommend scheduling a nutritional exam with us.

In this exam we use muscle testing to make sure the supplements work well with you! If you have your own supplements I am more than happy to test you on those or we have options in the office as well.
