Hi all! I'm new here!
I'm trying to find good advice about nutrition from those in the science world.
My diet consists of protein, vegetables and ready meals (microwave).
I suffer from anxiety, depression, low sex drive can be quite obesseive and likes to be exact and know things properly. I've also suffered on and off with spots, and use to have bad acne.
I dont take any meds at all.
For the above I've wondered about nutrition. Maybe some of my issues are due to diet? I've started taking 15MG of zinc per day (i've read it can be good for spot healing etc.) 2 weeks later i'd say my skin currently looks really good and not oily at all. (could be coicidence). I've started taking 500% RDA of Vitamin D as I rarley get out due to anxiety and job (not sure if I should take this a couple of days per week, or every day? Please recommend. I've also got 40% RDA of magnesium as it can help with anxiety and relax you and help with sleep.. so i've read at least. But not sure how often I should take that?
I welcome any advice and comments about this. Is my nutrition supplements safe to take and do you think they'll benefit me?

Of course suffering from anxiety, it’s easy to get in to a panic attack thinking im taking too much and it will kill me! PS. I spoke to an online doctor and he actually recommended I take 1000mg of Vitamin D; however, it seemed a little high?
I welcome any advice and comments about this. Is my nutrition supplements safe to take and do you think they'll benefit me?
Thanks
