Evidence-Based Supplement Guidance
Navigate the supplement world with confidence. Kristen provides evidence-based advice on which supplements may genuinely benefit you and which you can skip — saving you money and helping you focus on what actually works.
Personalised Recommendations
Supplement advice tailored to your individual health status, dietary intake, and goals — because what works for one person may not be necessary for another.
Evidence-Based Advice
Every recommendation is grounded in current research and clinical evidence, cutting through the noise of marketing claims and social media trends.
Quality Guidance
Not all supplements are created equal. Kristen helps you identify reputable brands, appropriate dosages, and the forms your body can actually absorb.
Common Supplements We Discuss
Vitamin D — one of the most common deficiencies in Australia, particularly for those who work indoors or have limited sun exposure. We assess whether supplementation is right for you and at what dose.
Iron — critical for energy and oxygen transport, but not something to supplement without proper assessment. Over-supplementation can be harmful, so we take a targeted approach.
Magnesium — plays a role in sleep, muscle recovery, and stress management. We discuss the different forms and which may be most beneficial for your specific needs.
Omega-3 fish oil — a well-researched supplement for heart health, inflammation, and brain function. We help you determine whether dietary intake is sufficient or supplementation is warranted.
Probiotics — gut health is highly individual, and not all probiotic strains are equal. We guide you toward strains with evidence for your particular concerns.
Zinc, B vitamins, protein supplements, creatine, and collagen are also commonly discussed — each assessed based on your diet, lifestyle, training, and health goals.
Our Approach to Supplements
At Hi Movement, we follow a food-first philosophy. Real, whole foods provide nutrients in their most bioavailable form, alongside the fibre, phytochemicals, and cofactors that supplements simply cannot replicate.
Supplements are recommended only when dietary intake is genuinely insufficient or a deficiency has been confirmed through assessment. This targeted approach ensures you're addressing real needs rather than guessing.
The supplement industry is largely unregulated and driven by marketing. Kristen helps you avoid wasting money on unnecessary products and instead invest in the few supplements — if any — that will make a meaningful difference to your health.
