Researching supplements is frustrating and it takes forever. Confusing studies, product shills, too-good-to-be-true promises, complex blends of strange mystery ingredients… how can you choose? Buy the right supplement, and improve your quality of life… buy the wrong supplement and you are throwing away money.
This website is a valuable inside resource on what really works.
Supplements In Review (SiR) is your ultimate one-stop-destination for nutritional supplement research, ratings and reviews.
Who is Behind Supplements in Review?
My name is Valentino Muza, and I am the administrator of Supplementsinreview.com and author of my eBook “Health Shining Bright: A Practical Guide for the 30+ Body – From Brain Fog to Joint Comfort and Beyond”.
My goal at SiR is to save you time by sharing actionable product reviews that are:
- Fast. You can read a review in 5 minutes—but it takes hours for me to write.
- Easy. Want to know why a supplement works? I make science simple for you.
- Credible. I research real science from solid sources and distill the best for you.
- Transparent. I show you where I get my information, click and you’re there.
- Honest. SiR is a “No gimmick” zone. I call out bad supplements to protect you.
While I am the managing director of SiR, this website is supported by nutritional supplement industry insiders who have seen it all. In the words of our team: “We know great formulations when we see them. We recognize flops, uncover dangers, and expose poor-quality products that are bad for you and bad for the industry.”
SiR shares “in the know” supplements tips, secrets and strategies that you can’t get anywhere else.
