We often see statements like, "My doctors says I don't need supplements," or "Just eat a healthy diet and you'll get all the vitamins and minerals you need!"

And while these sentiments are well meaning, they aren't backed up by science. Every time I see these statements, I ask the people if they are willing to share the results of the test showing that they don't have any vitamin or mineral deficiencies. And every time the answer is predictable... they have no evidence they have no deficiencies.

Yet every testing lab in the country will tell you that all the tests show deficiencies, sometimes bad ones. So why would doctors be so careful about diagnosing everything else, yet send people with deficiencies home with the mistaken idea they had none, without running tests?

In this episode, I explore the current research on the topic, along with the legitimate concerns many doctors have with the dietary supplements industry.
