'Just because it's more expensive, doesn't mean it's better for you.'
And of course, there's the ongoing debate about whether we evensupplements if we maintain a healthy diet? According to Sohayegh, it's a little more complicated than a simple yes or no. The typical healthy person does not need supplements, Sohayegh says."But when we talk about supplements for people with conditions like gut imbalance, for example, they may have a B12 or iron deficiency and could benefit from vitamins.
And while it's certainly possible to incorporate natural changes in your diet and lifestyle to improve your health, Sohayegh says,"It requires a lot more motivation than popping a gummy." Supplements can help you tackle larger de-stressing mechanisms and major lifestyle changes. Thais Aliabadi, MD, a board-certified physician specializing in women's health who sits on Lemme's medical advisory board, says in a statement,"[Kourtney] prioritized ingredients that were bioavailable and filled nutritional gaps in people's diets.
"For example, 'Lemme Chill' has passion flower and lemon balm which does have a calming effect, and 'Lemme Matcha' includes B12 and CoQ10 which does give a boost of energy," she says."But the thing about supplements is that while companies are required to tell consumers what is in a product because we're digesting it, supplements are not regulated by the FDA, so we're kinda at the whim of the companies." It's basically an honor system.
Sohayegh says,"I think supplements can be life-changing." But unfortunately, a lot of people are taking supplements regardless of if it's the right fit for their nutritional needs. So if you're considering taking a supplement, whether it's endorsed by a Kardashian or not, Sohayegh suggests speaking with a dietician or doctor to talk through what may actually be helpful for you.
