Virtual: Zoom Link - Truth vs. Myth: The Science of Supplements
Title: Truth vs. Myth: The Science of Supplements
Summary: With supplements everywhere—from greens powders to protein and fiber products—how do you know what’s actually worth taking? Truth vs. Trends cuts through the marketing hype and explores what the science really says about popular supplements.
Participants will learn how supplements compare to whole foods, including vegetables, protein-rich foods, and fiber sources, while exploring the benefits, drawbacks, and appropriate role of each. The presentation will also cover supplement regulations and how to identify reliable, legitimate products.
Key takeaway: Supplements can have a place in a healthy lifestyle, but they should supplement—not automatically substitute for—a balanced diet.
