Common Myths About Routine Nutritional Support
Fact vs. Common Misconception
Myth: "All nutrients come only from supplements."
Fact: Most nutrients in human diets historically came—and continue to come—from food sources. Supplements represent a modern option, not a replacement for food diversity.
Fact vs. Common Misconception
Myth: "More nutrients mean faster or better results."
Fact: Balance and consistency matter more than excess. The body has established needs and utilization patterns developed over evolutionary time.
Fact vs. Common Misconception
Myth: "All nutrient sources are absorbed identically."
Fact: Absorption varies based on source, form, presence of cofactors, individual physiology, and food combinations—a neutral, scientifically documented phenomenon.
Fact vs. Common Misconception
Myth: "One food or supplement can meet all nutritional needs."
Fact: Dietary diversity—across plant and animal sources—is consistently emphasized as the foundation of balanced nutrition.
