Vitamins & Supplements: Are They Doing More HARM Than Good?
The fitness industry pushes endless supplements—from BCAAs and glutamine to protein powders and vitamin pills… but do you really need all of them? In this video, I explore whether supplementation is necessary or just overhyped.
I also discuss how many fitness influencers prioritize macros over real nutrition and why a nutrient-dense diet should be your foundation. This isn’t about saying supplements are “bad,” but rather questioning whether they’re truly needed when real food can provide everything your body requires.
What I Cover in This Video:
Why the fitness industry promotes excessive supplementation
Do you really need BCAAs, glutamine & protein powder?
The problem with relying on pills for vitamins
How a nutrient-dense diet can meet your needs naturally
The difference between macros vs. real nutrition
