Simple Version
For a lighter stack, start with glycine, magnesium L-threonate, L-theanine, and taurine. Add apigenin, ashwagandha, or L-ornithine only if the simpler stack is not enough.
Cycling Notes
- Glycine, taurine, L-theanine, and Magtein can be treated as daily core items.
- Apigenin is better as a 5-days-on, 2-days-off item.
- Ashwagandha is better cycled: 6-8 weeks on, then 2-4 weeks off.
Longevity Stack Interaction
If adding magnesium glycinate from the longevity stack, count it with Magtein instead of treating it as a separate unlimited add-on. The current Magtein target is about 145mg elemental magnesium, and the adult supplemental magnesium upper limit is 350mg/day unless a clinician directs otherwise.
