With shelves full of flashy promises, it's time to cut through the noise. In this episode, Dr. Shah and Dr. Greg Kelly explore what science actually says about supplements—and what your body truly needs to perform at its best.

You'll learn how nootropics, adaptogens, and probiotics influence brain health, stress resilience, and longevity. Backed by clinical research, Dr. Kelly unpacks the key mechanisms behind compounds that support cognitive performance, neuroplasticity, and the gut-brain connection—revealing how your microbiome plays a central role in mood, immunity, and energy regulation.

Whether you're aiming for sharper focus, better digestion, or long-term health, this episode delivers a practical roadmap to optimize your supplement strategy—minus the hype.

Dr. Greg Kelly is a licensed naturopathic physician and leading authority in nootropics and human optimization. He's the Director of Product Development at Neurohacker Collective and author of Shape Shift.
