45. Supplements 101: Best Picks, Big Red Flags, and My Surprising Favorites

from Improve Energy for Busy Moms | Gut Health, Hormone Imbalance, Fatigue, Moodiness, Bloating, Weight Loss · host Sara Paxton | Pharmacist-Turned Certified Health Coach

Hi Listeners!   Supplements can be confusing—some are worth every penny, while others are nothing more than “expensive urine.” In this episode, I share the truth about the supplement industry, including the big red flags to watch out for, why brand quality matters, and how to avoid the common mistakes most people make when shopping for vitamins.  As a former pharmacist turned nutrition coach, I’ve seen both sides—prescriptions that cover up symptoms and natural approaches that address the root cause. Today, I’ll walk you through the supplements I personally use with my family and why some of the most popular products on store shelves might be doing more harm than good. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the options, this episode will give you clarity and confidence in choosing supplements that truly serve your health.
