(Youtube@Soha Ali Khan)    Do you need supplements for a gym body<\/p>\n<p>When Soha asked <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/topic\/rujuta-diwekar\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"Rujuta\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Rujuta<\/a>, \u201cAre you one of those people who says \u2018don\u2019t do that\u2019 when it comes to supplementation? Because nowadays everyone wants a gym body. So what\u2019s your nutritional advice when it comes to achieving that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rujuta responded, \u201cAs far as supplements go, if they\u2019re part of what you\u2019re already doing, eating correctly, sleeping on time, exercising, being mindful, and you add a supplement or two, I think it\u2019s okay.\u201d She further adds, \u201cIf your entire focus is on pills, powders, and products at the cost of eating home-cooked food, staying regular with your workouts, and sleeping well, then it\u2019s not worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> Is staying fit really that expensive<\/p>\n<p>She also pointed out how this obsession can fuel the belief that staying fit is \u201ctoo expensive.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s a myth,\u201d Rujuta stressed. \u201cIf you really know what your body needs and how to work around it, fitness isn\u2019t heavy on your pocket at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to her, this misconception largely comes from unregulated <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/topic\/social-media\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"social media\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">social media<\/a> marketing, where influencers often push supplements without disclosing paid partnerships. This, she said, convinces people to chase \u201cquick fixes\u201d instead of building sustainable, affordable habits that actually work.<\/p>\n<p>Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
