Hey, Dr. Mindy here and welcome to the Live Like a Girl podcast, where I bring you icons, disruptors, educators, scientists, and doctors that show you what can be possible when you love and celebrate the female body you are blessed to live in.

Let's dive in. Americans spent $69.3 billion

on supplements in 2024, and roughly 55% of U.S. adults now take them on a regular basis.

Yet 60% of us are still low in magnesium and the majority of us don't even get enough potassium.

We are spending more than ever and still running on empty.

I think we've reached a breaking point with supplements.

Somewhere along the way, wellness became a cabinet full of pills,

powders, and promises. Put in the comments if you've noticed that. And many women are spending

hundreds of dollars every month while still feeling exhausted, inflamed, and frustrated.

Most people are just in an endless cycle trying to fix symptoms with almost any supplement they can come across when they most likely have a foundation problem, a lifestyle foundational

problem.

They are missing a handful of key nutrients that support metabolism

energy brain function muscle health and healthy aging yet instead of fixing these gaps

they're chasing every new trend on social media so today today, we're going to simplify these things.

If I could only recommend five supplements for women, you can throw the rest of them out.

These are the ones that I would choose, and not because they are trendy, but because they

consistently support the systems that matter most for longevity, hormone balance,

metabolic health, and feeling your best, which is what we want to be doing.

Right? So get ready because I'm about to save you a whole lot of money and make life a lot easier.

And so let's start with this thought.

Why does the cabinet keep growing and nothing changes?

I call it shiny object syndrome where we see something and we're like, I want that.
