Most supplements do not fix the root problem. But habits do.

Supplements are tools, not magic - they are no different than prescription medications. In this episode, I explain how I decide when a supplement makes sense and when it is a distraction.

I start with the big picture, nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and support. I then review common products people ask me about.

Creatine helps with strength and lean mass if you are training.

Omega-3 can help if you rarely eat fish.

Vitamin D can help if you are low on a blood test.

B12 matters if you follow a vegan or near-vegan diet.

Protein powders are food, not medicine, and can be convenient.

Psyllium fiber helps with LDL and satiety. I also cover what I usually skip, fat burners, greens powders as meal replacements, expensive proprietary blends, and most "hormone" boosters.

I share simple rules for buying, third-party testing, clear dosing, no miracle claims, realistic timelines, and tracking your response. The aim is better health with fewer wasted dollars.
