A bitter pill: are you wasting your money on supplements?
Multivitamins, widely used supplements, show minimal benefits for most people, with a significant trial revealing only a slight memory improvement in older adults. While they may be beneficial during specific life stages, experts recommend prioritizing nutrient intake from whole foods over supplements. Creatine and collagen supplements also have limited effects, with creatine aiding short bursts of exercise and collagen supporting skin and connective tissue, but dietary sources are often more effective.
