234. 12 Things The Supplement Industry Doesn't Want You to Know
Thursday, 20 November, 2025
Most people assume supplements are helping their health and performance. The reality is that a large part of the industry is built on cheap ingredients, artificial additives, and labels designed to look impressive instead of delivering results. I've been in this industry for nearly three decades as a writer, editor, and brand owner, and I've seen exactly what happens behind the labels. In this episode, I break down twelve things supplement companies hope you never learn, including how many amino acids are sourced from bird feathers and human hair, why artificial sweeteners disrupt your gut and hormones, how high-stim pre-workouts create dependency instead of energy, and why grain-fed whey can carry glyphosate residues. We also cover diluted store-brand formulas, contaminated botanicals, heavy metals in vegan proteins, and influencer marketing tactics that hide the truth. After this episode, you'll know how to read your labels, choose better products, and protect your health. This episode is your supplement audit. After you listen, go check your cupboard. Some of what you find may surprise you.
