Most supplements don’t work. Some might actually harm you. That’s the hard truth no one in the $50 billion supplement industry wants to say out loud—but we will.

In today’s episode of Extend, I’m joined by Steve Martocci, co-founder of SuppCo, to expose what’s really going on behind the labels. We break down why “clinically dosed” means nothing, why the FDA isn’t protecting you, and how two identical bottles can deliver completely different outcomes.

We also dive into the myth of “FDA-approved” supplements, the loopholes brands exploit to mislead consumers, and why Europe bans ingredients still allowed in U.S. formulas.

If you take supplements—or recommend them—this episode is essential listening. It’s time to stop guessing, stop wasting money, and start demanding real data, transparency, and strategy.

Steve Martocci is the co-founder of SuppCo, a platform bringing science-backed clarity to the chaos of the supplement industry.
