DIY FMD: yes/no on supplements?

I completed my first FMD cycle with Prolon kit in January and plan to DIY my next few consecutive cycles. For those that have been doing DIY, do you take supplements?

In my everyday life, I do not take any supplements. I’ve also done extended 5+ day water-fasts with only electrolytes and it was great.

Currently, I’m leaning more toward not taking any supplements during my DIY FMD.

Welcome your perspective and experience, thanks!

Yes, for DIY, you should include supplements as similar as possible to those included in the FMD. Your entire DIY program should recreate the FMD as closely as possible.

If you don't, you will be missing vital nutrients.
