A Quick Guide to Supplements and Remedies (That Actually Work)

The first order of business: I am not a doctor. The information I’m sharing I’ve obtained from years of research and interest, my certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, other medical professionals (doctors, certified nutritionists, peer-reviewed studies), what is the most current, and what has worked for me. I don’t know your body, and I don’t pretend to know what’s best for you. Health is bioindividual, meaning there is no one-size fits-all approach. I would need to work with you 1:1 to assess your individual needs and customize a plan. That being said, there are a number of foundational protocols that can be used to support anyone in healing.

Supplements cannot fix a bad diet and lifestyle. You can’t treat your body like shit 90% of the time and expect to make up for it with daily vitamins, minerals, and expensive superfoods. Most of the nutrients you need, you can and should get from real, whole, unprocessed food.

Below I cover the core supplements I recommend for everyone—especially the types we can’t get from diet or our body cannot synthesize on it’s own—plus some specific products to address and support particular issues like immunity, detoxification, skin, stress, and brain health. You need to change your diet and your lifestyle if you want to transform your health. Food is the best medicine.
