As a society in general we are massively OVER supplemented
For most health factors/concerns now we reach for pills and supplements first
The supplement industry is worth an estimated 177billion in the United States alone
Supplements are meant to supplement a BALANCED diet - pouring supplements in on top of a poor nutrition or one that is mineral deficient is pretty pointless.
The VAST majority of minerals you see supplements advertised for can be consumed through real food.
It’s also easier for the body to break down and absorb minerals from actual food compared to supplements.
Depending on your food preferences, your particular lifestyle etc., you may need to use supplements to help you attain balanced nutrients and that’s ok BUT we need to stop telling women they NEED supplements
Plus, as soon as someone adds “menopause” to a supplement it magically triples in price…
Save your money and focus on REAL FOOD
