Listen Later

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the endless options in the supplement aisle?

In this episode of Extend, I take a closer look at why so many people struggle to make sense of supplementation—and what you can do to make smarter, science-backed decisions.

From the declining nutrient density in modern diets to the role of supplements in addressing deficiencies and optimizing health, I’m breaking it all down.

I also reveal the foundational supplements everyone should consider (like Vitamin D, Omega-3s, and Magnesium), the cutting-edge advancements in supplementation, and why personalized protocols are the future of health optimization.

If you’re ready to cut through the confusion and build a supplement routine that truly works for you, this episode is packed with actionable insights you don’t want to miss.

Tune in to discover how supplements can bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
