Hello, thank you so much for tuning in to this week's Food for Thought. This is the

podcast that's on a mission to equip you all with the evidence-based advice that you

need to live and breathe a healthy lifestyle. You pick and choose what you consume, what

you listen to and apply to the way that works for you because we are all unique. I'm

Rianne and Lambert, registered nutritionist, Sunday Times, best selling author and founder

of the Harley Street Clinic Retrition and of course the evidence-based supplements come

from the Retrition Plus. In each of these episodes we have incredible guests who are at

the forefront of their fields, who will be giving us the trusted advice that's what we all

need and answering your burning questions which let's be honest in nutrition, the questions

seem to be never ending these days. Now this series combines some of the many highlights

over the years and I hope will continue to support your nutrition and well-being.

There are endless supplements out there to take. Gosh, I mean many of them are questionable,

but knowing what to take and the right doses of course, understandably a really hard task.

The debate goes on as to whether we need them at all, but evidence does show that for most

of us it can be imperative. So this week's food for thought details all the do's and don'ts

for supplementing. What to watch out for and believe me there's a lot when you delve

into the world of supplements and advertising. For instance, did you know that anybody can

actually create a supplements company? It's quite scary. So we enough if it's really needed

for optimum health and performance. I now track to Sophie Medlin who's a registered dietitian

and we discuss which supplements you should be taking, why and when and we of course include

vitamin D, things like B12, omega-3, calcium folic acid, the bioavailability and the importance

of the absorption and not to forget busting those sports supplements.
