Common Supplement Mistakes (and How Canadians Can Avoid Them)

In Canada, natural health supplements are increasingly popular for supporting immunity, boosting energy, and improving overall wellness. When used as intended, dietary supplements offer a convenient way to enhance your nutrient intake and benefit from traditional herbal remedies. However, improper usage can reduce their effectiveness—or worse, result in side effects.

At Siberian Green, we combine time-tested Siberian Altai herbal practices with modern quality standards. Our supplements feature Shilajit, wild Siberian botanicals, adaptogens, and cold-pressed oils—sustainably sourced and carefully processed to preserve their natural potency.

Let’s look at the five most common supplement mistakes Canadians make and how to avoid them for better health outcomes.

❌ 1. Taking More Than the Recommended Dose


More isn’t always better.

One common misconception is that increasing your dosage will speed up results. In reality, excessive intake may lead to side effects such as nausea, headaches, or digestive discomfort.


Examples:


--- Ashwagandha with Shilajit & Turmeric: This synergistic blend promotes balance, stress relief, and inflammation control. Overuse may result in fatigue or light-headedness.
--- Heart Health Complex with Garlic & Hawthorn: While it supports cardiovascular function, an overdose may cause a drop in blood pressure or dizziness.


👉 Canadian Wellness Tip: Always follow the dosage instructions provided on the label. If you’re unsure, consult with a licensed naturopath or healthcare professional familiar with natural health products in Canada.

❌ 2. Using Supplements at the Wrong Time of Day

Timing affects results.Some supplements deliver better effects when taken at specific times—morning for energy, evening for relaxation, or during meals for better nutrient absorption.


Examples:
--- Ashwagandha-based formulas: Best used in the evening to help regulate cortisol and support better sleep. Morning use may cause drowsiness.
--- Blood Sugar Support capsules: Containing herbs like inulin, licorice, and yarrow, these should be taken with meals to help manage glucose levels and improve absorption.


👉 Pro Tip: Refer to product-specific timing guidelines for optimal performance.

❌ 3. Combining Supplements with Caffeine or Alcohol

Mind your beverages.

Daily habits like drinking coffee or alcohol can interfere with the way supplements work in your body.


Caffeine may intensify the stimulating properties of herbal adaptogens, leading to anxiety or restlessness.


Alcohol can impair liver function and reduce nutrient absorption, especially with detox or immune-supporting products.


👉 Wellness Advice for Canadians: 

Avoid pairing your supplements—particularly calming or liver-support blends—with caffeinated drinks or alcohol.

❌ 4. Mixing Supplements with Prescription Medications



Interactions can be harmful.

Combining herbal supplements with medications—without checking for interactions—may either weaken drug efficacy or amplify unwanted effects.



Example:
Our Blood Sugar Support formula includes guggul, yarrow, and licorice root. These may interact with diabetes medications or anticoagulants, potentially altering their intended effects.



👉 Important: Maintain a 2-hour gap between supplements and medications, and speak to a healthcare provider or pharmacist—especially in provinces like Ontario or BC, where integrative health services are widely available.

❌ 5. Storing Supplements Improperly

Keep your supplements potent. Canadian weather—particularly fluctuations in temperature and humidity—can impact the integrity of herbal capsules and oils.


Example:
Our Ashwagandha with Shilajit & Turmeric capsules are sensitive to light and moisture. Storing them in humid bathrooms or near kitchen heat sources may degrade their quality.


👉 Storage Tip: Store supplements in a cool, dry place—away from sunlight or moisture. Always reclose containers tightly to prevent oxidation and spoilage.
