Vitamin D3

What Huberman said

Huberman says he takes 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 a day and has supplemented with vitamin D for years, listing it with zinc and magnesium for the foundation of hormone health. He frames it as a supplement for people who might not get enough sunshine, while saying there is no pill replacement for sunshine, and says people need to get their D3 levels tested. He also relays Dr. Andy Galpin's 'golden three' recovery supplements, which include vitamin D.
