Well, guess I'll go first!
Gluten-intolerant, hypoglycemic, adrenal insufficient, progesterone insufficient. Like Elana, I don't tolerate starches or high-glycemic foods well. I've been gluten-free 4 years and have discovered my supplement needs change sometimes subtly, sometimes drastically, every 3-6 months. I have to take reduced forms or the most easily-aborbed forms of supplements, very often at the highest doses recommended to see any effects. Currently, the core supplements I take are magnesium citrate, vitamin C, vitamin D3, vitamin B12, calcium citrate, pregnenolone, CoQ10, and probiotics. I see a women's wellness doctor who prescribes me low-dose cortisol and compounded oral progesterone and once wrote me a prescription to be kinder to myself. At the risk of jinxing myself, I feel like I'm in a good spot right now as far as my health goes.
