Ep. 84 - What You Need to Know About Supplements

The Reality of Health

My Insights on Supplements

In this episode of the Reality of Health podcast, I delve into whether or not you should take supplements and which ones you might need. I break down the concept of the human body as an electrical system that can become depleted of energy due to stress, poor diet, or toxins, leading to various health problems. I emphasize the importance of detoxification in combating illnesses and discuss the role of supplements in maintaining health. While I clarify that not everyone may need supplements, I highlight a few, such as nascent iodine, collagen, vitamin C, and magnesium glycinate, that are beneficial due to their low presence in modern diets. I also stress the significance of daily habits like a nutritious diet, managing stress, and ensuring a good intake of clean water and air in preventing diseases. Additionally, I explore the historical use of food items like herbs for health benefits and compare the nutritional value of animal sources versus vegetables. The episode concludes with my perspective on the body's natural detoxification abilities and how proper nutrition and lifestyle choices are key to a healthy life, the next episode will be about detox methods.
