Supplements / SOURCE BRIEF
Before you build a supplement stack.
What to know
Supplements can interact with medicines, and combining products can duplicate ingredients. Quality-testing seals can help assess manufacturing or contents, but do not establish that a product is effective or appropriate for you.
Points to carry forward
- Record each ingredient and amount, not just the product name.
- Separate product quality from evidence of benefit.
Keep this in mind
“Natural” and “more” are not reliable measures of safety. Supplements cannot replace a varied eating pattern or prescribed care.
A question to carry with you
Could you show a pharmacist or clinician a complete list of everything you take?
