There is no question that the field of nutritional supplements is rife with dishonesty. Yet there is also value because more than placebo effects are at work. My experience was that when doctors failed, five supplements made for a dramatic improvement in persistent health issues: vitamin B-12; vitamin D; Magnesium L-Threonate; collagen peptides; and liposomal vitamin C.

I had sound reason based on the medical literature to think that those supplements would be helpful. They enabled me to claw my way back from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome; from persistent, atypical shingles; and from the beginnings of what I believe was osteoporosis, arthritis, and Alzheimer's Disease. A lifelong tendency toward cold hands and frequent colds was also remedied.

My current doctor now shakes his head that my blood and cardiac numbers are better than his. My contemporaries say that I look ten or fifteen years younger than I am.

Mostly agreed except iodine should be added to the list when dealing with chronic fatigue. BTW, going carnivore gives all of those in the right proportion and the relief of all your listed symptoms, with the added benefit of ketosis, a well known cure against brain diseases.
With vitamin D, you may get it wrong (when not complementing with K2). With zinc, you may get it wrong (it may cause copper deficiency). Etc... With carnivore, you can’t.
