<p dir="ltr">What if the reason your supplements aren’t working has nothing to do with your body—and everything to do with what’s in the bottle?</p> <p dir="ltr">In this episode of Extend, I’m joined by biochemist and ingredient formulator Shawn Wells, a leading voice in evidence-based supplementation and mitochondrial health. Together, we uncover why so many products fail to deliver results, how to build a smarter, personalized stack, and what most people get completely wrong about vitamins, probiotics, and biohacking.</p> <p dir="ltr">We get into the dangers of proprietary blends, why over 80% of supplements on Amazon may be underdosed or inactive, and what blood tests and wearables really reveal about your health. Shawn also shares his foundational stack—from GLP-1 agonists to mitochondrial protectors—and explains why dosing and timing matter more than you think.</p> <p dir="ltr">If you’re relying on guesswork when it comes to supplements, this episode will change your approach for good.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">We Also Discuss:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The Supplement Lies You’ve Been Told</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Why Bio-Individuality Changes Everything</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">How to Spot a Scam Supplement</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The Foundational Stack You Actually Need</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Muscle, Brain & Bone: The Smart Stack</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Upgrade Your Brain: Next-Gen Nootropics</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The New Science of Sleep Support</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Immunity, Mitochondria & Microbiome Hacks</p> </li> </ul> <p><strong> <br></strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Thank You to Our Sponsors:<br> <br></p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">TruNiagen: Whether you are looking to stay sharp, feel more energized or simple age better, go to <a href="https://www.truniagen.com/">https://www.truniagen.com/</a></p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">IFit: If you are looking to elevate your home gym fitness experience with the best in fitness tech, choose IFIT.
