“A national survey analysis estimated 2.6% severe deficiency, 22% moderate deficiency, and 40.9% insufficiency among US adults, although prevalence changes with the threshold used. These categories should remain distinct because insufficiency is not the same as clinical deficiency.”

“In a four-month randomized trial of 88 overweight, untrained middle-aged adults, daily doses of 500 or 1,000 milligrams improved some muscle and mitochondrial measures, while the primary outcome of peak power did not significantly improve.”

“Lutein and zeaxanthin also have evidence in age-related eye disease, although the AREDS2 trial did not find an additional reduction in progression to advanced macular degeneration in its primary comparison. Magnesium and creatine address different needs.”
Clip
“A meta-analysis of 49 resistance-training studies found small additional gains from protein supplementation, with fat-free-mass gains leveling near 1.6 grams per kilogram per day in the studied populations.”
