Why Most Supplements Don’t Work & What to Take Instead! Foraged For You Founder Tells All... Supps, Nutrition, Pre/Postpartum Care & Children's Health

This episode will completely change the way you think about supplements. Tess sits down with nutritionist and founder of Foraged For You, Sheridan Joy Austin, to unpack what’s really going on in the supplement industry — from synthetic ingredients and hidden additives to why so many products aren’t actually doing what they promise. Because it turns out, it’s not just about what you take… it’s about whether your body can actually absorb and use it.

In the second half, the conversation shifts into conception, pregnancy and postpartum — and what women are getting wrong when it comes to nourishment. From folate vs folic acid, to iodine, iron and postpartum depletion, this is the kind of information every woman should hear before (and after) having a baby.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why most supplements aren’t actually being absorbed
• The truth about synthetic vs food-based nutrients
• What’s really happening inside the supplement industry
• Why you might be wasting money on your current supplements
• Folic acid vs folate — and why it matters for pregnancy
• Key nutrients for conception, pregnancy & postpartum
• Why so many women are unknowingly undernourished
• The link between nutrient deficiencies, mood & energy
• Children's health and how to optimise it
• Postpartum depletion and how to better support your body
• How to actually nourish yourself (and your family) properly
