Savage won't say what it was. He always avoids giving a brand name. This is the first time I remember his refusing to say what the supplement/vitamin was.

He talked about fish oil in the past and was highly pleased with the result and strongly recommended it.

He's just mentioned some of the B vitamins.. he often praises them (6 and 12).

Whatever it was he said that he would like to market it himself but it sounded like he purchased it to try.

I personally am fascinated by all this.. we are trillions of chemical reactions going every second 24/7.

Thanks.

I do take a Vitamin B-6/12 supplement - it also works as an internal insect repellant for me.

We have lots of mosquitos, black flies, and other biting pests up here in Maine that will eat you alive, especially in the Spring / Summer evenings outdoors.

I’ve found that popping a B vitamin a couple of hours before going outdoors to work, recreate or socialize will keep the bugs off better than any topical repellant, even the DEET stuff which may not be all that good for us.

The Vitamin B has a distinctive odor which comes out in both the urine and the sweat; In stead of sweating your repellant off, you sweat it ON.

If you take enough B to make your urine orange and smell funny, then the bugs ought to be leaving you alone.

It seems to prevent attack from ticks as well, and up here they carry Lyme’s Disease which can be quite debilitating.
I have only had one tick on me all summer, and he was crawling around and hadn’t bitten in before I picked him off.

We have fish oil capsules but I haven’t been taking them lately - guess I’ll get back in the habit.
