This is just the tip of the iceberg. We will make an episode just dedicated to supplements in the future. All information is just for educational purposes, and please consult a medical professional before taking any supplements. Read the studies to come up with your own opinion on what is best for you. Feel free to contact me or Sam for some advice if needed.

Sam recommends getting his minerals in chelated form to increase bioavailability. He also recommends getting iFOS approved omega 3 to avoid buying oxidised omega 3.
