💊Are supplements in the NL as safe as we think — and worth the high price?

In the NL (+the EU), we could assume supplements sold here are well-regulated and harmless — just a little extra “health” in a bottle. But as a public health nutritionist, I keep listening to people: • taking multivitamins “just in case” • buying green powders because influencers recommend them • stacking gym supplements like collagen, creatine, pre-workout… 🕵️The truth? Many of these are unnecessary — and some can even be harmful if overused. The market isn’t as tightly regulated as most people think, especially for high doses, herbal blends, or online imports. 🫠Common issues I’ve seen: • overdosing on fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E) • doubling up on the same ingredient in different products • assuming “natural” means “safe” • wasting money on things with no proven benefit 📲I made a short video about how to avoid spending money — how regulation actually works, which supplements are that risky, when and which one can actually help👇 🔗 I’ll post the link in the first comment ⬇️
