Do you need to take supplements?
We need supplements for several reasons. Research shows that many parts of the US have experienced a significant loss of topsoil due to intensive agricultural practices, including overuse of chemical fertilizers and monoculture farming, which has led to the depletion of essential nutrients in the soil. As a result, crops grown on these soils have decreased nutritional quality.
Furthermore, poor digestion and absorption, medications (e.g., oral contraceptives, proton pump inhibitors, statins), aging, illness, and genetic SNPs can all contribute to nutrient deficiencies. For example, some people may have genetic variations, such as MTHFR or MTRR, which affect their ability to convert folic acid to its active form, increasing their risk of folic acid deficiency. In these cases, supplements can provide the active form of the nutrient that the body needs.
I trust Fullscript for my family and my patients for several reasons. Independent testing programs have revealed significant quality issues with some supplement brands sold on Amazon, with products consistently falling below potency requirements and containing poor quality or lacking ingredients.
Another study showed that 17 out of 30 dietary supplement products purchased from a large online retailer had inaccurate labels, 13 were misbranded, and 9 had additional components detected but not claimed on the label. Additionally, there are concerns about storage at high temperatures above 100 degrees in warehouses such as Amazon.
In contrast, all brands in the Fullscript catalog are third-party tested and prioritize quality and safety by validating ingredients and testing for contaminants. Fullscript adheres to cGMP standards and follows the guidelines set by NSF International to maintain the highest quality standards. They also use protective packaging to ensure that temperature-sensitive products are not affected by heat.
