Other Nutritional Supplements

• Glucosamine
  This is used for joint pain and arthritis. There is good research evidence that this is helpful.
• Melatonin
  It regulates the body's internal clock and helps ease sleep problems, especially if your sleeping schedule shifts.
• Omega-3 Fatty Acids
  Scientific evidence backs up claims that these help improve memory, concentration and mood, and also prevent cardiovascular disease. You need only take the DHA type of omega-3, which comes from algae (the same place the fish get theirs).
• Probiotics
  These supplements, such acidophilus, promote health of the gastrointestinal tract. You can find them in yogurt cultures, but even higher amounts are available in pill form. They are especially helpful in preventing yeast infections when you take them during—or after—a round of antibiotics.
