General questions about a combo of supplements being safe>>

Hello,

Not sure if this forum is the right place for my questions but I'm trying to find out general info from someone knowledgeable with supplement combinations- what's safe what's not what is most beneficial together etc.

I started taking acetyl l carnitine, l tyrosine, alpha lipolic acid and omega fish oil together on an empty stomach mornings and nights. I started doing this after reading many benefits of these supplements but I don't necessarily know if they are an ok mix or if I need to add anything to help them function better.

Most of all I don't want to be taking an unsafe combo!

Thanks for your help.
 
Generally, with supplements (which are based on natural substances) - you can pretty much combine anything from a safety standpoint. Stimulants are the one area where you want to be careful, and that is more from a dosage (amount) stand-point, as most are synergistic with each other. If I had to make a broad-brush recco, to apply to the entire planet generally, it would be don't combine Beta 2 Agonists (Ephedrine) with Alpha 2 Antagonists (Yohimbine HCL) - but even then, millions are fine with that combo.

There are greater chances that a combination will just cancel out some benefits of one or more - wasting money.

For your particular combo the ALCAR and Tyrosine are fine in the morning (those are popular in a lot of so called "fat burners"), but while not stimulants, they can increase alertness - I wouldn't take them before bed.

ALA is an Anti-Oxidant and has Glucose disposal properties (probably one of the best, along with Berberine) - you would probably want to take this before carbohydrate meals if looking for GD. Don't take with Eggs (especially raw) or Coconut Oil (MCTs) per Examine.com. Can be taken fasted though, if just wanting AO action, but be wary of blood sugar drop.

I would take Fish Oil with food, personally, but it probably doesn't matter.
 
There is nothing in that stack that can negatively effect you.
 
Looks like The_Old_Guy covered you! You're g2g.
 
No negatives to that stack whatsoever! My buddy that's a powerlifter uses all of those individualized together as well as a few others! Good to go!
 
Great looking stack!!! Nothing at all to be worried about
