The question asked wasn’t exactly how do I choose supplements but because it comes close to the question I wish someone would have asked and I think it is a valuable 3-step process, that’s the episode topic. One of our members asked a great question:

“If I'm eating three eggs every day, do I still need Fortetropin? And how do Fortetropin, Mitopure, creatine, and essential amino acids all fit together?”

There are several questions on how I choose supplements, wrapped into that one, so let's unpack them one at a time.
