I was reading recently about the benefits of magnesium to sleep patterns. I wouldn't take much but do take an iron supplement. It's the liquid one that you just put in the orange juice in the morning.

What if any supplements and or vitamins are you taking?
Is it worth taking stuff like Omega 3, glucosamine, magnesium etc?

Magnesium, Vitamin D and then protein too. Majority of us have a Mag/Vit D deficiency so I used supplements to get my daily intake of those, been on it past 6 months I'd say its helped me. Protein as recovery from Training/Gym and helps with satiation (keeps you full) so helps keep the snacking at bay.

Creatine good too from research I've read - I can't take it though, found it gives me a headache for whatever reason

Are you drinking enough water? Found that helps while taking it.

Creatine helps the muscles absorb more water. If you aren't drinking more water while taking creatine to compensate then you will get dehydrated and prone to sore heads
