The Supplement Stack
Science-backed optimization for brain health. Tested over 30 years. Proven results.
I've tested hundreds of supplements. I've watched what works and what doesn't. I've seen families spend thousands on products that do nothing, and I've seen single supplements change lives.
This page is my curated collection — the supplements that actually deliver results, backed by research, and integrated into the CALM Home Protocol.

The CMA Stack: The 29% Cognitive Improvement Protocol
The CMA stack is currently being fast-tracked into a branded prescription drug (potentially called CMA2). Why? Because in Phase II trials, participants achieved a 29% cognitive improvement in just 84 days. MRI scans showed physical increases in hippocampal volume and cortical thickness.
You're not taking a supplement. You're installing a new generator and hiring a full-time cleaning crew for your brain.
The Bio-Hacker Dosing Protocol
| Component | Daily Target | AM Dose | PM Dose | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NR | 1g | 500mg | 500mg | NAD+ Energy/Repair |
| L-Serine | 12.35g | 6.17g | 6.17g | Cognitive Support/Sleep |
| NAC | 2.55g | 1.27g | 1.27g | Antioxidant/Glutathione |
| L-Carnitine | 3.73g | 1.86g | 1.86g | Mitochondrial Oxidation |
💡 Pro-Tip:
If NR causes insomnia, move the full 1g dose to the morning.
The Components
Elite Lab Targets (Proof of Concept)
Bio-hackers should target:
- Homocysteine: 6.0–9.0 µmol/L (lower is better; high homocysteine = brain shrinkage)
- GGT: 10–20 U/L (proves your body is efficiently handling energy metabolism)
👨👩👧 CALM Home Protocol
"Environmental Metabolic Architecture"
Your loved one has been diagnosed with dementia or mild cognitive impairment. You're not just managing decline — you're optimizing their environment and metabolism to slow it.
The CALM Home Protocol integrates the CMA stack into your home as a behavioral rhythm, not just a pill schedule.

👨👩👦 Silver Path
"Empowering Families with Proof"
Your loved one has a formal dementia diagnosis. The family is skeptical. They've tried things that didn't work. They're exhausted and defensive.
The Silver Path uses the "House Analogy" to reduce emotional labor and increase understanding.
The House Analogy
"Think of the brain like a house."
As we age, two things happen:
- 1. The power grid flickers — Mitochondria (the energy factories in brain cells) start failing. The brain can't generate enough ATP (cellular energy). Everything slows down: memory, mood, movement.
- 2. The trash stops getting picked up — Oxidative stress accumulates. Damaged proteins pile up. Inflammation spreads. The brain's cleanup crew (antioxidant systems) can't keep up.
The CMA stack is like installing a brand-new generator and hiring a full-time cleaning crew.
- NR + L-Carnitine = New generator (more ATP production)
- NAC + L-Serine = Cleaning crew (antioxidants + cellular repair)
That's why the memory comes back. That's why mood stabilizes. That's why sleep improves.
Safety Assurance: The COVID-19 Evidence
The CMA stack was tested on COVID-19 patients recovering from severe illness (which damages mitochondria severely). Results:
- ✓ Patients recovered 3.5 days faster than controls
- ✓ Cognitive recovery was significantly better
- ✓ No adverse events
This proves the stack's ability to fix cellular damage rapidly — even in the most damaged brains.
