What’s andrews supplement stack

Andrew Huberman's supplement stack for improving sleep includes several specific supplements, which he discusses in various episodes of the Huberman Lab. Here are the key components:

1. Magnesium Threonate:

   • Recommended dosage: 145 mg, but adjustments may be needed based on individual tolerance and effectiveness.
   • Helps many people fall asleep and stay asleep deeply without morning grogginess 1.

2. Apigenin:

   • Suggested dosage: 50 mg.
   • Often used alongside magnesium for enhanced sleep quality 1.

3. Theanine:

   • Dosage ranges from 100 to 400 mg, depending on individual preferences and response.
   • Some users report that it may lead to vivid dreams that can disrupt sleep, suggesting it may not be suitable for everyone 1.

4. Inositol (Myo-Inositol):

   • Dosage: 900 mg.
   • Useful for helping return to sleep if woken during the night and can be synergistic with the other supplements in the sleep stack 2.

Huberman emphasizes the importance of starting with behavioral sleep optimizations before considering supplements, and advises consulting a healthcare professional before adding any new supplements to your routine. Timing is also critical, with a recommendation to take these supplements 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime, especially on an empty stomach 3.

These supplements are not universally required, and individual needs may vary significantly.
