Run every supplement before your GP in case you have conflicts with current meds or if he/she just feels they aren't necessary.

And don't listen to supplement salespeople that claim M.D.s are biased. That's BS. Their job is to keep you healthy and if you need supplement xyzzy, they'll be happy to approve it.

I had a supplement pusher swear that everyone needs more magnesium. When I asked this person what her magnesium levels are, she didn't know but still swore that everyone needs them. I have a semi-rare condition known as hypermagnesemia and I assured her that I know what my levels are because I'm tested regularly. Didn't matter to her, the internet told her that everyone needs more magnesium.
