You are allowed to import 3 months worth of medicine/supplement for your personal use only. High dose vitamins and certain nutritional supplements are considered medicine for customs purposes.

(in German, but google translate is your friend)

Forget mailing anything to Germany, DVD/CDs and Medicines are are always pulled out in the screening process (they have started using xray scanners automated like the baggage screening) and you get a letter.
