Supplements: What You Actually Need (And What’s Just Hype) with Toni Carroll

Loading player...
Walk into any health store and it feels like you need every-single-thing! Powders. Pills. Adaptogens. Sprays. Tonics. So where do you actually start?
In this episode, Kate Thompson-Duwe sits down with Toni Carroll to cut through the noise of the modern supplement industry - and answer the question everyone is asking:

Are we actually deficient… or just overwhelmed?

They unpack the tension between real nutritional gaps and aggressive wellness marketing, and why more supplements don’t always mean better health.

This is a grounded, honest conversation that will save you money, time, and confusion - while helping you make smarter, more intentional choices for your body.

In this episode:
- Whether we’re truly nutrient deficient today
- Why the supplement industry feels so overwhelming
- The difference between necessity and marketing hype
- How to know what your body actually needs
- Why more is not always better (or effective)

You don’t need everything. You need what works for you.
And understanding that is where real wellness begins.
