Dr. Karan: “98% of Supplements Are Basically Sawdust…”
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Start with evidence-based supplements – Focus on well-studied options with proven ROI before experimenting with unproven products.
- Verify third-party testing – Avoid “sawdust” supplements by checking for independent lab verification (e.g., NSF, USP, or ConsumerLab seals).
- Treat supplements like medicine – They contain active compounds, so research interactions and side effects before use.
Notable Quotes
“98% of the product is just like sawdust… It’s essentially a cash grab.”
“There are some low-hanging fruit supplements which you can get serious R.O.I. from.”
Bottom Line
Prioritize clinically proven supplements from reputable brands with third-party testing, and approach supplementation with the same caution as pharmaceuticals.
