Why Every Supplement—and Every Change—Matters

We often tell patients, “Tell me everything you’re taking.” It’s not micromanagement, it’s medicine. When you list all of your supplements and medications, we have more clarity to improve your health.

While many doctors dismiss supplements as irrelevant, here at The Legacy Clinic, we embrace the full picture. Knowing your brands, dosages, and routines—especially any changes—is vital. Without that, we may recommend a protocol that repeats past problems or conflicts with what you’re already using. Sometimes, what seems helpful is actually holding you back, or worse, doing harm.

Recently, a new patient came in following her gut health evaluation. In our report of findings, we discussed supplements to begin, but discovered she was already taking several, unknowingly overlapping or mismatched with the protocol we planned. Had we not asked, she could have experienced side effects, or wasted time and money.

Transparency empowers us to serve you better. It helps us avoid guesswork and focus on what truly works for you.

So, next time you visit, bring a current list, even photos of your bottles. Together, we’ll refine your care plan with precision and purpose. After all, your health and safety deserve nothing less.
