What Vitamins and Supplements Is Everyone Getting

Lunch and Learn with Dr. Berry

So, let’s talk about the high-in-demand vitamins and supplements people are actively looking for nowadays…

At my recent doctor’s visit, I discovered that my vitamin D levels were low despite living in sunny Florida. So naturally, I was prescribed vitamin D supplements—which made me think about the lack of nutrition education we, healthcare professionals, receive during training.

This made me want to learn about the wide range of vitamins and supplements out there—and now, I’m excited to share what I’ve learned with you.

“As a health care professional, especially as a physician, we don't get a lot of nutrition talk or supplement talk. They don't really do it [at medical school]. So, a lot of times, your primary care providers and just your physicians aren't usually the best people to talk to when it comes to nutrition and supplements, unless we go a little bit extra.” – Dr. Berry Pierre

Notable Quotes:

“Yes, doctors go to doctors to get appointments as well, like I got to get my checkup. Because imagine if I'm sitting here behind this camera telling you [to] go get your annual physical, go get this screening done, [but] I myself am not doing it. Now, I know doctors can be very hypocritical; you do not have to tell me how hypocritical doctors can be. [But] I try not to be one of them, at least on purpose. I try to practice what I preach.” – Dr. Berry Pierre
