In this episode, I explain when dietary supplements are needed even if you are eating a healthy diet and the criteria the professionals use to choose the right supplements. If you ever wondered if you need to get a bottle of supplements to "get healthier" or feel better or buy each supplement that is well marketed or you are in the opposite camp believing that none of the supplements are ever needed if you eat a varied diet, I am hoping to shed some light on this contentious topic helping you see the situation from a different perspective and choose the path of action that is best for your current needs. --------------------------------------------------------------- Follow me on Instagram (the place to vote for the topic of the next and get notified about the upcoming Workshops on Anti-PCOS Diet and Blood Sugar Stabilisation Diet) Say thank you and support the show You can find more information about my services, my expertise and my background as well as find lots of helpful information in my blog at my website www.nutriupgrade.com You can contact me by DM on Instagram or email me at nutriupgrade@gmail.com
