How I vet supplements

Supplements aren't FDA-approved before they're sold, so third-party testing is one of the few outside checks you can use. A seal only means something if you can look it up.

Descriptions are short summaries; see each certifier's site for exactly what's tested.

The GuidedGut weekly

One short email a week: lab sales I spotted, clean-brand notes, and plain-English summaries of new peer-reviewed studies. No spam, unsubscribe anytime.
