AVCWhat Will Happen In 2025
I've done a lot of these January 1st look forward posts in the 20+ years I've been blogging. I've used many different approaches. I sometimes talk big themes, like I did last year. I sometimes focus on just one thing. And sometimes I just make a bunch of predictions. I am going to do the latter approach today because I feel like it and it's so much fun. 1/ Apple and Google will leverage their existing market power to surpass OpenAI/ChatGPT in consumer AI prompts by the end of 2025. 2/ Waymo w...

For many years, I took a multivitamin every morning and that was it. Then maybe five years ago, during my annual physical, my doctor told me I was "very vitamin B deficient." That led to a month or so of regular injections in my thigh and I've taken Vitamin B12 every day since.
Over time, I added Vitamin D3 to my daily routine. A friend on the golf course told me to try Glucosamine for my aching knees and so I added that. My dermatologist told me to add Niacinamide to my daily routine and so I did. My friend Gordon told me to start taking Omega 3s and that was added.
And now I've got a "supplement stack." I take six supplements every day and Zinc every other day. Here it is.
That link and image is powered by our portfolio company Supp's new mobile app. You use the app to read the bar codes on your supplements and it creates a stack for you. It is shareable, obviously. And you get ratings and recommendations. Here's mine:
I don't take Supp's recommendations as gospel. I share them with my doctor and a few friends who are way more into this than I am. So I may or may not be adding Lycopene and Turmeric to my stack. But I do appreciate the recommendations. And may incorporate them.
At USV, we are totally bought into patient centric health and wellness. We believe that each and every one of us should own our wellness and wellness data and the health care industry should revolve around us not the other way around. Which, unfortunately, is where we are today. Supp is a piece of that. Starting with supplements.
If you want to download the Supp app and give it a try, iOS is here and Android is here.

Really nice app/website by @fredwilson.eth for keeping on top of your supplement regime! https://supp.co/home https://avc.xyz/my-supplement-stack
Hi Casters. I wrote about my supplement stack today https://avc.xyz/my-supplement-stack
thanks for sharing - hadn’t heard of supp before, gonna try it!
Any reason why Supp is region limited? I think this can be useful even outside the USA
Seconding the other person who suggested D3 with K2. There is a company called Sports Research that offers it with a little MCT oil to maximize absorption. Also recommend a low dose Magnesium, as D3 activation uses up Magnesium Be careful supplementing with Zinc, as it can deplete Copper. They compete for absorption.
Seeing that you're taking Zinc every other day, Copper deficiency less likely an issue
No creatine or K2 for you sir?
Thinking about creatine. What is K2?
Helps with D3 uptake - avoids the calcium issue with over consumption!
High recommend Thorne Creatine!
Creatine is a must imo
Hey, curious if this article embedded natively or if you used some additional frame? Pretty slick for third-party content compared to X… Also Supp looks interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Just works natively.
Do you worry about the manufacturing process?
