Popping pills isn’t always a bad thing.

I’m a huge fan of getting your nutrients from whole food. But there are many reasons why that isn’t always ideal; the quality of food you can get (which can vary depending on location, time of year, etc.), the diversity, and of course, your body’s needs, which can vary based on your own makeup and conditions such as injuries. So nutritional supplements are often a valuable tool for maintaining (or regaining) your health.

But the question remains - which supplements and how to choose them? That is the topic of this talk with Dr. Pamela Fergusson, a registered dietician with a Ph.D. in nutrition who’s been helping people change their lives for over 20 years. 

You’ll discover: 

  • Which nutrients your body especially needs during injury recovery. 
  • Getting the nutrients with food vs supplements (you might be surprised with this one). 
  • Which supplements are necessary after an injury. 
  • How foods that you eat can contribute to inflammation and consequently to pain and swelling and how to change that.
