This post covers the changes I’ve made to the Andrew Huberman supplements post over time.
(Occasionally I make an update to the Andrew Huberman Supplements post and forget to edit this list, whoops!)
April 2025 – Update:
- Added mention of the caffeine sources Andrew likes, based on an April 10 tweet.
- Haven’t seen him mention any particularly new supplements in 2025 – though he does sound interested in Saffron for it’s mood enhancing benefits – see tweet.
December 2024 – Updates:
- Aligned daily supplements with the list he gave in the June 2024 Rhonda Patrick interview (link). Adding to the list:
- Ginger
- Digestive enzymes
- Noting that he didn’t mention taking the following daily:
- L-Theanine (which used to be part of his 3x sleep stack. Was the omission a mistake? Seems odd he’d forget it)
- Glutamine
- Creatine
- Ashwagandha
- Rhodiola Rosea
- AG1 (show sponsor)
- NMN & NR
- Therefore, I moved all of these to their own section titled “Previously Used Regularly / May Still”
- Then there were some supplements he didn’t mention which I’ve moved to a separate post titled: “Supplements Huberman Has Discussed But Doesn’t Take”. This includes things like:
- Acetyl L-Carnitine (may help with weight loss, depression and male fertility)
- Cissus Quadrangularis (serotonin-boosting)
- Nicotine (temporarily aids focus and concentration)
- Turkesterone (mild to low anabolic properties)
- The new post also contains the supplements he doesn’t like:
- Melatonin (believes it can negatively affect sex steroid hormones)
- 5-HTP & Tryptophan (negatively affected his sleep quality)
- Tribulus Terrestris (didn’t see any benefits)
- Removing these 7 supplements tidies the post up a bit and reduces length.
June 2023 – Updated:
- Added Boron
- Added details around common standardized extracts of Ashwagandha – KSM-66 and Sensoril in particular.
May 21 2023 – Updated:
- Added Tribulus to the list of supplements Andrew does not take
- Added note that Andrew takes vitamin K2
Feb 17, 2023 – Updated:
- Added NMN and Acetyl L-Carnitine.
Dec 14, 2022 – Updated:
- Added reference to some of the discussion that Andrew had with Dr Kyle Gillett around Tongkat Ali and Fadogia Agrestis. In particular with Fadogia, listing out the dosing protocols Kyle uses, and referencing the rat study he mentioned.
Nov 8, 2022 – Updated:
- Added a section on Rhodiola Rosea after Layne Norton discussed it in their interview.
September 28, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on zinc and its importance in maintaining healthy testosterone levels (as discussed by Andrew). Specifically how having insufficient zinc is likely to decrease testosterone levels.
September 17, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on Nicotine. Whilst Andrew doesn’t take it, he has mentioned it a number of times as a focus aid, so it makes sense to cover it.
September 6, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on Creatine, which Andrew discusses in the context of optimal brain function/performance. He says he takes 5 grams per day, mixed into a drink.
August 24, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on Vitamin D, which he mentions taking in his interview with Rhonda Patrick
- Added section on Athletic Greens, which is a sponsor and he says he’s taken for years
August 16, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on Glutamine use – Andrew mentions he has been taking it since college, primarily for immune enhancement. In his podcast ‘Nutrients for Brain Health’ he mentions how it can also be beneficial for the brain.
June 29, 2022 – Updated:
- Added section on Inositol (Myo-inositol), which is a compound that Andrew says he is experimenting with. He’s adding it to his sleep stack, and so far says the results are good.
