# 50 - Supplement Shakedown: Is Your Favorite Supplement Brand Owned by Nestle, Clorox, or Big Pharma? What do Big Pharma and supplements have in common? Turns out, too much. This is a case of “What you don’t know could hurt you”. Here’s why: your favorite supplement brand is probably not owned by your favorite supplement brand anymore. At least 58% of Americans have taken vitamin supplements within the past month.  The supplement market is expected to grow from about $130 billion in 2021 to almost $200 billion in 2028, worldwide.  Big Pharma and large conglomerates want a big piece of this rapidly growing pie, and it affects the supplements you take everyday. In fact, over 100 popular supplement companies are owned by just 14 mega corporations.  Listen in today and have your mind blown. Better yet, get advice for how to buy the best supplements for you and your family going forward. https://drnealsmoller.com/rant/the-14-mega-corporations-that-own-your-supplement-brand/ https://www.zmescience.com/science/nestle-company-pollution-children/ The primary purpose of The Pretty Well Podcast being to educate.
