Kim Kardashian is definitely keeping up with her supplements.
The Kardashians star, 45, revealed the shocking number of pills she takes every day while on the Tuesday, May 19, episode of the “Good Hang With Amy Poehler” podcast.
Poehler noted that vitamin intake was "something that our moms did not know about or talk about at all.”
Kim Kardashian and her family members got a DEXA scan, which measures bone density.
"There's so much stuff that we have to now take. It's a lot,” the comedian, 54, said.
Replied Kardashian, "I take probably 35 supplements a day. I spread them out three times a day and I thought, 'Okay, I can't do this fish oil anymore. I have like pill fatigue. I have to stop these fish oil [supplements].' And I got my bloodwork and it was so evident that I stopped and I had to start again."
Poehler pointed out that fish oil can be difficult to consume, as "you taste it for a long time."
"The pills are just so big!" Kardashian exclaimed. "I wish there was like an IV drip I could do every day and I would just do it on my way to work."
Kim Kardashian guest-starred on 'Good Hang With Amy Poehler.'
The reality star then dished about how she and her family get DEXA scans every year to measure bone density and break down body composition.
“I actually know a portable DEXA scan person that comes in a van and you lay down,” the makeup mogul explained. “Each one of my sisters and my mom — we all live in the same gated community — so we have the van drive by and we all jump in the van and you just lay down and it scans your body maybe like three minutes, and it tells you all about your bone density.”

"I recently did this @prenuvo scan and had to tell you all about this life-saving machine," she wrote. "The Prenuvo full-body scan has the ability to detect cancer and diseases such as aneurysms in its earliest stages, before symptoms arise. It was like getting an MRI for an hour with no radiation.
