The Dr. Hyman Show
How to Choose the Right Supplements (and Avoid the Wrong Ones)

I'm not getting sick all the time. I'm not having muscle aches. I don't have muscle pains while I'm taking a high dose of statins. So that's the thing. We really want to set people's expectations right. And also that they're dosing it, they're taking it at the right time. People don't follow, it's very rare that people follow the with food, without food.

Yeah, because you talk about that for a little bit in terms of different nutrients and how you need to take them with or without food. Yeah, I mean the fat soluble vitamins like A, D, E, K should be taken with a meal to help improve absorption and it can impact it by up to 50%. With fatty foods. Fatty foods particularly, let alone any food.

If you're taking your vitamin D, you have to have it with some fat as opposed to vitamin C. So we have a scheduler in the app too that takes all your different products and then helps you build what time of day you should be taking it at, set reminders for it, and soon track whether or not you're experiencing side effects or the results that you're looking for.

So we've got to kind of close that loop, then feed that data back in, help you optimize, make changes, and kind of keep improving things. And it'll be a journey. And then you get feedback from people about how they responded. So you get sort of data on. That's going to be the key, right? To me, right now we have the protocols and the products.

You can see how many people are taking them, but how many people are actually hitting their results? And I really struggle when I look at reviews, like on Amazon reviews for supplements. It's usually like one of three things. This changed my life. This did nothing. The package came damaged. That's all that's happening on these Amazon reviews.

There's no one actually seeing whether or not they're hitting results with it. We definitely aspire to do that. We talk a lot about creating that closed loop experience. And I think that's when the N equals one data starts to become really valuable. So what does N equal one mean? N equals one is like one of what is my data. I am an individual in this. It is not the clinical result.

It is not the aggregate. It is just my personal, you know, your own biology against your own story, right? It's your own, it could be subjective, but it's, it's the N equals one is the, the sample size is me. And that is the, you know, it was, we talk a little bit about the battle of the institution and the individuals, you know, there's so many people on, on Twitter.
