I use bearable for 3 months at a time to get a picture of what is currently working. You can track effect sizes of supplements in sleep quality for example if you also have a way of tracking your sleep.
Funnily enough, I noticed there were a bunch of 80⁄20 stuff in my day through using bearable. I found doing a cold shower, loving kindness meditation in the morning and getting sunlight in the morning were like a difference of 30% in energy and enjoyment so I now do these religiously and it has worked wonders. (I really like bearable for these sorts of experiments.)
I just did different combinations of the sleep supplements, you still get the confounder effects but it removes some of the cross-correlation. So Glycine 3 days, no magnesium followed by magnesium 3 days, no glycine e.t.c. It’s not necessarily going to give you a high accuracy but you can see if it works or not and a rough effect size

This is super interesting! How do you do the experiments? Do you change one thing at a time and track?
