HEALTH INTELLIGENCE · KNOWLEDGE

Supplements after 50: assess first, supplement second.

Supplements can be useful in specific situations, but they do not replace a balanced diet and are not automatically risk-free. Health Intelligence separates product marketing, plausible mechanisms and robust evidence.

Need before product

The first question is not which supplement to buy, but whether there is a plausible need. Age, diet, medicines, conditions and laboratory results may matter.

Dose and combinations matter

More is not automatically better. Some nutrients can be problematic in excessive amounts or interact with medicines.

Read claims critically

Terms such as detox, anti-ageing or immune boost do not establish benefit. Ingredients, dose, evidence and individual context matter.
