Summary
Full Show Notes: BenGreenfieldLife.com/supplementsdebate Are supplements truly enhancing your health, or are they just hijacking it? In this episode, I bring together two leaders in the health and wellness space—Dr. Jeffrey Bland, known as the founder of functional medicine, and Robyn Openshaw, nutrition researcher and author of “Take Daily: How Supplements Hijack Your Health”—for an honest and eye-opening debate. We dive deep into controversial topics like the real story behind vitamin C and D supplements, why fish oil and protein powders might contain more than you bargained for, and how industrial processing could affect the purity of your favorite health boosters.
