#215 Supplements that are not worth it with Dr Rupy
26th Sep 2023
Today I’m talking about the supplements that I think are not as useful as the claims make out, as well as the ones that I think may have use.
Supplements are a tricky subject but I think it warrants a bit more attention on the podcast considering I get asked about them so much and I’m a user of supplements myself!
In summary those that I think are not worth it or require caution include:
- Multivitamins
- Calcium
- Vitamin D3 (alone)
- Zinc
Those that could be more worth it include:
- High quality and high dose Omega 3
- Food based supplements e.g. cacao, dehydrated berries, hemp seeds, flaxseed
- Turmeric
- Creatine
- Vitamin D3 + K2
