if you follow me on IG, you know i take my supplement routine very seriously haha. over the past 2 years or so i’ve really upped my supplement game and found a protocol that works really well for where my body + health are at today.
i wanted to share with you guys the exact supplements i take on a regular basis, in case this gives you some ideas on new things to try out. but keep in mind…no two supplement routines should look the same! there are SO many factors that go into which supplements you should be taking – from bloodwork, to lifestyle, dietary needs, life stage and more. so i highly encourage you to meet with a functional medicine doctor or FM registered dietician to maybe get some bloodwork done and get their recommendations on what supplements might be helpful for you!
this goes without saying but i am clearly NOT a doctor, nor am i giving medical advice! just wanted to share the supplements i take on a daily basis that have really helped me to feel my best from the inside out!

okay i mentioned above that no two supplement routines will look the same. however, if there is ONE supplement i think everyone SHOULD have in their routine - it's AG1. i've shared this hundreds of times on my IG stories and i'm sure you've seen it all over social media. in one scoop you are getting 75 vitamins and minerals sourced from high quality ingredients. probiotics, antioxidants, superfoods, adaptogens and more. it's a very 'low hanging fruit' daily habit with a ton of pay off! in one scoop of this you're supporting your energy levels, immunity, aging, gut health and more! i do one scoop in about 16oz of water first thing every morning on an empty stomach!
shop nowif you order AG1 from this link you’ll get $20 off your first order, a free shaker bottle, 5 free travel packs, AND vitamin D3+K2 drops!!
i drink one of these electrolyte packets every single day and tbh there are days i wish i could have two haha. in the cold months i mix one of the chocolate flavors in hot water for a salty hot chocolate, but usually i mix with just 30ish oz of cold water (or a lacroix!). these little packets are packed with electrolytes: magnesium, sodium, and potassium which help to support recovery, keep your body hydrated, replenish the sweat you lose from workouts and more. i LOVE the taste and love knowing that these little packets have all the ingredients i need and nothing that i don't! (no sugar, no gluten, no weird ingredients)

i started taking creatine about a year ago and it's been a game changer in my fitness routine. i feel like it's really helped me to build muscle, allowed my muscles to recover quicker, and this creatine also supports brain health & cognition & promotes youthful skin! i take this pouch anytime of day but usually before or after a workout! the taste is fine - i don't love it or hate it. y'all can use code laurenkay for 15% off!

i've heard so many doctors or wellness experts talk about the importance of taking glutathione regularly. i LOVE this one from cymbiotika and have been taking it for probably 2 years now. some of the benefits: contains powerful antioxidant properties that combat premature aging + enhances energy metabolism + promotes gut health. it's a great supplement to help you detox! i love the taste of this one too! and love that it's a pouch so you can just take it on the go! this is also a great supplement to take before drinking alcohol! y'all can use code laurenkay for 15% off!

have you seen those memes on IG like ~~i've got 99 problems but magnesium fixed 98 of them~~? haha it really is true that magnesium is SO essential for our overall health! from sleep support to healthy stress levels to digestion and more. and MOST americans are very deficient in magnesium. i LOVE this one from cymbiotika because it's liposomal meaning it crosses the blood brain barrier (making it very effective). a few benefits from this magnesium: boost brain power, balance mood and calm central nervous system,improve memory. you can take this anytime of day but i usually take mine after dinner!

vitamin c is another supplement i think anyone could benefit from having in their routine! and again i love this liposomal one from cymbiotika because your body is absorbing more of it into its system. some of the benefits of this vitamin c - support healthy aging, boost collagen production, support a healthy immune system. i love this because there are both beauty and health benefits to taking this supplement! and it tastes like orange juice! use code laurenkay for 15% off

i have been taking nutrafol for 3 1/2 years now! i switched to the postpartum nutrafol after having lyla to help prevent my hair from shedding (post partum hair loss is REAL). lyla is almost 5 months old and *knock on wood* i've had almost no post partum hair shedding. nutrafol targets the root causes for hair thinning / hair loss and addresses those issues to allow you to have your healthiest, thickest, fullest hair! my hair has gotten SO healthy over these past few years and in large part i owe that to nutrafol. it's 4 pills a day and i personally take mine after dinner (but again, i think you can take these whenever).
shop now
i took ritual's prenatal vitamin all throughout my pregnancy with lyla and loved it. i switched to their postnatal after having lyla because your body has SO many new nutrient needs when you're postpartum (especially when breastfeeding). this vitamin is formulated for the new nutrient demands on a mother for 6 months postpartum, and throughout lactation! i think you can use code LKS30 for a discount on any ritual vitamins!

i've been taking this probiotic for a few years now and LOVE. first of all i love that it's just one pill a day. but i also love that it's a spore based probiotic meaning it actually survives the trip to your gut. this probiotic helps to support digestive and immune health. i've noticed significant improvement in my bloating, digestion, constipation issues etc! y'all can use code LKS15 for 15% off!

another game changer in my hair routine this past year! i take a pouch of this everyday (and LOVE the taste). this supplement isn't just collagen but also has 5 amino acids as well as nutrients such as vitamins C & E, zinc, copper, and silica. helps to support your skin and joint health and i feel like it's also made my hair grow so fast!

i have been taking advocare spark since high school - literally! it is my absolute favorite pre workout (even though it's not technically a 'pre-workout'). it's like an energy / focus drink and when i have this before a run or a peloton ride, i notice a SIGNIFICANT difference in my energy and stamina! i love almost all of the flavors. but cherry and fruit punch are two my faves! if you find yourself needing a pick me up before a workout, or when you hit that afternoon slump...this stuff is nothing short of magic!

whew, you are incredible if you made it through this entire post haha. i know this is A LOT and i’m by no means saying everyone should take all of these supplements. this is just my routine that’s helped me to feel my most healthy and energized and balanced! and i wanted to share ALL the details with you because i personally find it helpful when people share WHY they take certain supplements or benefits they have noticed. if you’re not sure where to start, i’d definitely start with AG1 and probably the magnesium!
thanks for reading!
