I used to have frequent headaches. Now I take magnesium and potassium and almost never get them. I think many people could benefit from more minerals/electrolytes (but depends on diet of course). I also take Vitamin D (not a huge amount) in winter and Omega 3s daily but I haven’t noticed any effects. The oils seems fairly harmless though and the research is compelling. I also found probiotics and fiber helpful depending on if I didn’t get enough in my diet.

Vast majority of population is vitamin D deficient all year round, even spending at least 4 hours a day half naked outdoors in Hawaii would not provide you enough vitamin D [1] and I doubt you spend that much time half naked in sunlight in other seasons, even 80-90% of Indian population living close to equator with much more sunlight is vitamin D deficient [2]. At very least I'd recommend following Finnish guidelines.
