31. The Evidence-Based Supplement Guide: Cutting Through the $60 Billion Noise

The supplement industry is a $60 billion business with almost no regulatory oversight. Three out of four American adults take at least one. Almost none of them know what's actually in the bottle.

In this episode, Drs. Vikas and Nisha Patel walk through the supplements people ask about most often in clinic — vitamin D, fish oil, creatine, magnesium, B vitamins, multivitamins, CoQ10, curcumin, Akkermansia, AG1, and more. What the evidence actually says. What's worth taking. What's a waste of money.

The big idea: supplements are the chandeliers in the house. They are not the foundation. The foundation is sleep, lifting, moving, real food, connection, and purpose. No supplement will fix a broken foundation. With a solid foundation, the right supplements can be a genuine edge.
