Supplements: which ones have evidence and which ones are marketing

from The Wellness Rhythm Show

Emma Sullivan and David Park cut through the marketing noise to explain which supplements actually have research behind them—like Vitamin D, omega-3s, and magnesium for people with real deficiencies—and which ones are mostly expensive packaging, from collagen to biotin. They break down why the supplement industry is barely regulated, how the placebo effect can feel real even when the science isn't there, and what to actually look for before buying anything, including the critical detail that product labels aren't always guaranteed to be accurate. You'll leave with a simple three-question framework to evaluate any supplement and understand when food sources might work just as well.Follow The Wellness Rhythm Show:  ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessRhythmShow  📖 Newsletter: https://thewellnessrhythmshow.substack.com  Powered by VoxCrea.AI
