Episode 456: Why Half Your Supplements Are Probably Useless (And Which 4 Actually Matter)
Are you throwing money away on supplements that do nothing? In this Fitness Friday episode on the Habits and Hustle podcast, Liron Kayvan and I break down the supplement industry's biggest myths and reveal which ones are actually worth taking.
We discuss why most supplements are unregulated snake oil, the importance of third-party testing, and how to cycle supplements so your body doesn't become desensitized. Plus, we share our personal supplement protocols and explain why getting blood work is non-negotiable before starting any regimen.
Liron Kayvan founded BFLA in 2019. He’s a NASM Certified Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer, and Transformative Life Coach. Liron has competed in Amateur MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Rugby and has been a Fitness Coach for over 10 years.
What we discuss:
Why supplements should be the smallest part of your health pyramid
The lack of FDA regulation in the supplement industry
Essential supplements: creatine, omega-3, vitamin D with K2, magnesium
Why creatine isn't just for bodybuilders (new Alzheimer's research)
The importance of third-party testing and NSF certification
How to cycle supplements to prevent tolerance
Why you need blood work before and after supplementation
NAD and alpha-GPC for brain health
Working with your natural patterns vs. fighting them
The difference between giving energy vs. getting energy from exercise
