Chapter 1: The Supplement Wild West
Regulation and Reality
The dietary supplement industry is an unregulated frontier. Unlike pharmaceutical medications, supplements do not require FDA approval before they hit the shelves. This means that what is written on the label rarely matches what is inside the capsule.

In this playbook, we lay down the ground rules of supplementation: how to choose third-party tested brands, how to read labels, and how to verify scientific efficacy.
