More,and more I’m seeing negative stories about supplements come out. A lot of folks push supp,iments online, claiming to be health gurus, but there is a very real possibi,ity that being unstudied the way they are, some supplements might be really bad for certain people- but you don’t see the self professed gurus issuing warnings. For instance, one supp.iment might be good for a certain thing, but u beknownst to gurus, i5 might also interact with certain mods, or affect certain health conditions negatively. Folks read the blogs and think that because it’s a natural supplement that it must be OK. But really, no real research has gone into the safety of some of them.
I lost count of how many thousands of dollars I spent “chasing health”- 2ho knows what famage I might have done not knowing the risks of “natural” products?

Unless your doctor recommends supplementation, you're just playing a fool's game taking supplements that may actually cause more pain and which, for the most part, whose only benefit is to separate you from your hard-earned money.
Eat cows and pigs, occasionally green things. Be happy. Die happy. Ignore food consultants, they are just jealous.
My doctor now marvels at my bloodwork, blood pressure, and general good health.
Most multivitamins contain retinol. A study found that people that consume a lot of retinol have more bone problems.
Perhaps the pharmaceutical industry doesn't want people to explore options other than the use of their chemicals.
