Remember, supplements won’t make up for a bad diet. As the term suggests, supplements are supplements to—not replacements for—food. Always eat a good diet with loads of colorful, phytonutrient-rich fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, and good-quality protein. Use supplements to supplement the nutrients you just can’t seem to get in your diet.lFrank Lipman, M.D.The Author of this QuoteAuthorFrank Lipman, M.D.Internationally recognized expert in Integrative and Functional Medicine.
