Supplements vs Diet & Lifestyle for Metabolic Wellness

Supplements can be marketed as a simple intervention, but they should be evaluated alongside the much broader role of nutrition, activity, sleep, medical care and medication when relevant.

Different roles

Dietary supplements are products added to the diet. They are not substitutes for a complete eating pattern, exercise, sleep or prescribed treatment.

Use supplements as one decision

If you are considering one, evaluate the label, evidence, safety and cost rather than letting the supplement decision crowd out more foundational health choices.
