Supplements That Work and Are Backed By Science

 Show Notes/All Resources from Episode: https://www.flexibledietinglifestyle.com/podcast-show-notes/  In this episode, we talk about supplements. We start off by explaining what supplements are and how they’re regulated (1:23). Keep in mind that there are a lot of false claims floating around. In regards to what health supplements we’d recommend, a fish oil (7:12) is at the top of our list followed by Vitamin D3 (13:33), then a multivitamin (20:37). With all of this talk around what’s necessary, we wanted to explain whether or not it’s possible to overdose on a supplement (18:13) and which supplements you want to be careful not to take too much of. These next two recommendations are going to be geared towards vegan athletes (23:56) - Vitamin D12, which can have an effect on your mood, and iron since it is mainly found in meats. Lastly, we discuss the ever-growing popularity of green supplements (25:37) and whether they a necessity or not. To wrap part one of this two part episode up, we talk about the placebo effect (28:53). What this means is that if there’s no research backing a certain supplement but it made you feel better, that feeling was not an effect of the supplement itself.   Fish oil recommendations Costco Fish Oil https://www.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature-Fish-Oil-1000-mg.%2c-400-Softgels.product.11072245.html ALLMAX Nutrition https://www.allmaxnutrition.com/products-type/omega-3/ PEScience Omega 3+ https://pescience.com/products/omega-3   Multivitamin recommendations Centrum https://www.centrum.com/centrum-adults Kirkland https://www.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature-Daily-Multi%2C-500-Tablets.product.11491625.html   Multivitamin recommendations Kirkland https://www.amazon.com/Kirkland-Signature-Vitamin-1000-Tablets/dp/B072FSTWC9/ref=sr_1_1?hvadid=224059489338ahvdev=cahvlocphy=9028321ahvnetw=gahvpos=1t1ahvqmt=bahvrand=12137960692522913491ahvtargid=kwd-328039096307akeywords=kirkland+vitamin+d3+1000+iuaqid=1550445105arefinements=p_89%3AKirkland+Signaturearnid=2528832011as=gatewayasr=8-1atag=googhydr-20 Jamieson https://www.jamiesonvitamins.com/products/vitamin-d-1-000-iu-1 Now Foods https://www.nowfoods.com/supplements/vitamin-d-3-1000-iu-softgels Solgar https://www.amazon.com/Solgar-Vitamin-Cholecalciferol-Vegetable-Capsules/dp/B0037U85OS/ref=sr_1_4?hvadid=214334601967ahvdev=cahvlocphy=9028321ahvnetw=gahvpos=1t1ahvqmt=eahvrand=15555087998866026245ahvtargid=kwd-328785787345akeywords=solgar+-+vitamin+d3aqid=1550445353as=hpcasr=1-4atag=googhydr-20 Webber Naturals https://webbernaturals.com/en-ca/product/vitamin-d3/   Zach’s Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/theflexibledietinglifestyle/ The Flexible Dieting Lifestyle website - https://www.flexibledietinglifestyle.com Miguel’s Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mblacutt/ Miguel’s website - https://miguelblacutt.com Miguel’s coaching - http://revivestronger.com/online-coaching/
