What’s actually better for your body — a handful of supplements or a plate of real food?

In today’s episode of Backyard Health, we’re answering one of the most common questions I get:
Should I be taking supplements… or can I just get what I need from food?

We’ll unpack:

• How supplements deliver minerals differently than whole foods
• The risks of high-dose, isolated nutrients (and why they sometimes make you feel worse)
• Why whole foods offer minerals in a more balanced, body-friendly way
• The power of biodynamics — and how your body decides what to absorb
• When supplements are helpful, and when they might be doing more harm than good

If you’ve ever felt confused in the supplement aisle or wondered why you're still tired despite “doing everything right,” this episode will help you shift from overwhelm to clarity.

Because it’s not just about what you take — it’s about how your body receives it.
And whole foods may be doing more than you think.
