The Supplement Stack You Actually Need This Fall
Here at Real Nutrition, we know how overwhelming the supplement aisle (and the internet!) can be. New trends pop up weekly, but most people don’t need a cabinet full of pills—just a solid foundation. A consistent routine with the right supplements can help fill nutritional gaps, support immunity, and improve energy. Below are the “umbrella” supplements we recommend that most people can benefit from (with discount codes where possible—because let’s be honest, this stuff adds up!). Always choose brands tested by independent, third-party labs, and work with a professional before adding anything new to your stack.
Vitamin D3: Essential as daylight hours shorten; supports immunity, bone health, and mood. Take with a meal that contains 10–20g of fat for best absorption.
B-Complex: Helps convert food into energy and supports your stress response. Take in the AM to avoid disrupting sleep. Extra important for those who drink alcohol.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Critical for heart, brain, and joint health. Take with meals to improve absorption.
Probiotic: Supports gut health and strengthens immunity, especially helpful in fall. Take daily at the same time for consistency.
Magnesium: Choose Glycinate for stress relief and better sleep, or Citrate for digestive regularity. Evening is ideal.
Glutathione: The body’s “master antioxidant,” helping to protect cells from oxidative stress. Ideally in the AM on an empty stomach but timing matters less than consistency.
