Jason, a pharmacist and developer of the Dietary Supplement Specialist Program, shares his philosophy on prioritizing nutrition and wellness to address foundational health concerns before targeting specific disease states with medication.

He discusses how wellness advocates, health coaches, and pharmacy professionals can benefit from a robust understanding of supplements. For listeners, Jason emphasizes the value of consulting licensed healthcare providers, including pharmacists, for reliable guidance on health concerns, particularly those related to supplements and preventive care. Additionally, he speaks on the need for diversification in the pharmacy industry, addressing reimbursement challenges, and the importance of integrating holistic approaches to improve health beyond merely treating symptoms.
