Supplements - Does Your Cabinet Look Like This? - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

Supplements often show that they help. So it's difficult for many of us not to try them. The result is often a supplement counter that overflows into the supplement cabinet into bags in the closet. I routinely have patiently sent me lists of 3 pages of supplements. They're asking for my review. I could write a comprehensive response to these. Where do you begin? Or end? I provide several sources for supplement reviews, like the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements. https://ods.od.nih.gov/ And it's a list of fact sheets re: individual supplements. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/list-all/ And then, I discuss the challenges with the supplement market and its interaction with the FDA, big PHARMA, and the individual consumer. Where does that leave us?
