#689: Read the Fine Print: Multivitamins That Do More Harm Than Good
On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared takes a close look at two of America's most popular multivitamins - Centrum and Kirkland Signature Daily Multi. Are these inexpensive supplements actually supporting your health, or could their ingredients be working against you? Jared breaks down what's hiding in the Supplement Facts panel, including synthetic vitamin E, folic acid, cyanocobalamin, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, artificial dyes, and poorly balanced minerals. You'll learn why nutrient forms, absorption, dosages, and ingredient combinations matter far more than impressive percentages on a label. He also explores the differences between natural and synthetic vitamins, the research behind questionable ingredients, and why the company behind your supplements matters. Before buying your next multivitamin, learn how to read the fine print and make more informed choices about your health.
