So filler is like something that just fills up the supplement. You know, it's like, you know, crystalline cellulose is a filler. Not all the supplement is going to be the B complex, but they need other things, you know, to bind the Bs, you know, for you to be able to digest them. So a lot of times, you know, or...

It's expensive to have the supplement be all liposomal C or B or vitamin D. So a lot of times they add the additives so that it isn't as costly. So it really is a struggle because a lot of people don't do well with these additives and they don't know that. So microcrystalline cellulose is one that's in a lot of supplements and it gives you digestive issues if you're taking too many.

So you could see a lot of people's supplements and they can all have microcrystalline cellulose. I mean, it's wild. So, or soy lecithin, you know, or just these additives, just like in foods, you know, it kind of maintains the shelf life of the supplement as well. So it's hard to find supplements without that because they're costly and a lot of people can't afford that.

So that's why, you know, I try to go more like with the food and that, you know, lead with the food and then supplements come second. But there are some supplements out there that we absolutely do need. You know, vitamin D is one of them.
So that's why, you know, I try to go more like with the food and that, you know, lead with the food and then supplements come second. But there are some supplements out there that we absolutely do need. You know, vitamin D is one of them.
I mean, since COVID, the studies that have been done on vitamin D and especially liposomal D because liposomal is a phospholipid outside of a, you know, supplement supplement. and basically is better to absorb, easier to absorb, like liposomal C and liposomal glutathione and all those things. And so basically when you raise your D levels you can lower your cholesterol.

Actually you raise your D levels it's better for your immune system, it's better for cognitive function. People don't realize that there's a vitamin D cell receptor in every cell in your body. So there's that, it's omega-3s, it's magnesium. There's certain things out there, B complex for stress.

Well, it's the same thing as the supplements. You know, there's a laundry list of things on the back of the snack, you know, box or bag or whatever that you don't even recognize, right? Like it's just, I mean, there are like, you know, certain dyes that are bad for us. And like going back to the soy lecithin, like soy lecithin is really bad for us.

I mean, I love soy, whole soy products, but you know, when it's processed down to that, it's bad. It's like the bad seed oils, that's omega-6s and nines and like really causing inflammation. So again, if it's a laundry list of things that you don't recognize, like that kind of is a no-go. I mean, you know, let's talk about some of the things we know, like plant milks or
