Talk to Your Doctor about Vitamins and Supplements

Do you find yourself collecting bottles of vitamins and supplements hoping they’ll boost your health? Sometimes supplements can be helpful, but taking too many can be risky. Too much of the wrong thing can be toxic and cause health complications. Vitamins and supplements marketing can lead you to buy more than you need based on emotion and numerous calls to action instead of medical need or real evidence. To be safe, consult a healthcare professional before starting new supplements and share what you are taking at each visit so your medical team can better advise you on what supplements you do or don’t need.
