0:00.0	Welcome to the Commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno. Today on the show, I welcome Dr.
0:14.5	Mary Pardee. Dr. Pardee is a functional medicine and naturopathic medical doctor specializing in integrative
0:22.1	gastroenterology, gut brain health, hormones, and thyroid optimization. Her practice,
0:28.2	modern med, offers a mix of conventional naturopathic and functional medicine, with a focus on
0:34.4	preventative care. In our conversation, Mary guides us through the labyrinth of
0:41.0	supplementation. So the global wellness market for dietary supplements is expected to grow
0:46.9	to $332 billion. That's billion with a B. I believe that's like 40% of the defense budget by the year
0:56.2	2026. 150 million people in the United States use dietary supplements. 79% report daily use
1:05.6	with 10% taking five or more per day. I'm in that category. However, while there are a lot of supplements
1:14.5	being popped in the morning, there is very little regulation and so much conflicting information.
1:22.4	So in today's episode, we explore four specific supplements, including vitamin D, creatine, magnesium, and fish oil.
1:30.9	Now, Mary addresses the benefits, dosage, side effects, and deficiency rates of each supplement.
1:36.6	We discuss the difference between essential and non-essential vitamins and fat soluble and water-soluble vitamins. Mary also reveals some of the
1:47.2	bigger supplement myths that are rampant on the serengeti of social media. So if you want to go
1:54.8	deeper into the world of supplementation, Dr. Mary has an upcoming commune course titled The Truth About Supplements, where she digs into
2:04.3	the research, reviews some of the commonly purchased dietary supplements, and helps you
2:09.1	decide if the ones you are taking are worth it, or on the contrary, are you literally
2:15.1	flushing your money down the toilet? To find out more about the
2:18.9	course, just go to onecommon.com slash supplements. Okay, before we dive in, we are so grateful
2:25.7	to those of you who write us reviews on Apple Podcasts that we created an offer just for you,
2:31.9	30 days of free commune membership. That's all access for a whole month.
