Staying healthy and energized begins with eating a well-balanced diet. But that's not always easy during our busy lives. As Chris Kresser explains, it's possible to be well-fed, but undernourished. In this Mini Medical School for the Public presentation, Kresser talks about the principles of supplementation and answers key questions, including: Should we supplement at all, and why or why not? What are the basic nutrients that are essential for health and proper functioning? And which supplements should we consider taking - and which ones should we avoid? Recorded on 02/27/2018.
