Key Takeaways:
- Keep Supplements Simple and Personalized: We recommend minimizing unnecessary supplements and encourage you to eat a nutrient-dense diet.

- Supplements by Life Stage: Each stage—from adolescence, to childbearing years, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause—has different nutritional demands. Check with your provider before starting a new supplement as based on your life stage, some can be unnecessary or even harmful.
