Supplements can be incredibly helpful—but with some of them, more isn’t always better and, in fact, can sometimes be harmful!
These are 4 I regularly review with patients because it’s easy to unintentionally overdo them when combining multivitamins, powders, gummies, and individual supplements (including pre-workout and/or energy drinks!):
#4: Magnesium
#3: Vitamin A
#2: Zinc
#1 Vitamin D
A lot of the time it happens without realizing it—especially when the same ingredient is showing up in multiple products.
This is one of the reasons I always encourage bringing your supplement list to appointments. A quick review can help make sure everything you’re taking is actually working for you—not against you.
Always check with your healthcare provider before starting or changing supplements—especially if you’re taking multiple products.
