Ever walked down the supplement aisle and felt totally overwhelmed? Collagen powders, protein shakes, gummies, hair growth vitamins—where do you even start, and what actually works?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Glynis Ablon to talk through all the ways nutrition and supplements can support our skin, hair, and overall health. She shares her evidence-based approach to building a healthy foundation, the supplements she trusts, and even her personal routine (yes, she really has bottles by the sink, bed, and fridge!).
We cover everything from collagen, vitamin D, creatine, and bone density support in menopause, to hair supplements like Nutrafol and Viviscal, gut health, stress management, and the Standard American Diet (SAD).
If you’ve ever wondered what supplements are worth your time, this episode is for you. Listen in, then share this conversation with a friend who’s also navigating the supplement world. And don’t forget to follow the show so you never miss an episode.
