In this episode, Ritual founder Kat Schneider explains why supplement research has historically focused on men, how terms like “clinically studied” are often misunderstood, and what real scientific validation should look like. The conversation explores ingredient traceability, how supplement formulations are actually tested, and why sourcing and dosage matter as much as the ingredient itself. Schneider also explains how contaminants like heavy metals can enter protein powders and other supplements, and why greater transparency across the industry is becoming essential.
