Kim Kardashian may have access to the best wellness tools, scans, and specialists, but even she is tired of one very ordinary part of staying healthy: swallowing pills.
In a recent interview, Kardashian opened up about what she does to keep her body functioning the way she wants, even at the age of 45 with 4 kids. The secret is a routine with 35 supplement pills, which has actually led to what she calls “pill fatigue.”
Kim Kardashian Says Her Supplement Routine Has Become Too Much
During her appearance on ‘Good Hang with Amy Poehler‘, Kim got candid about the exhaustion she constantly feels from keeping up with this health regimen and taking so many supplements every single day.

While talking about health, the conversation naturally steered toward supplements when Kim shared, “I take probably 35 supplements a day.” And because of such an overwhelming number, she has to divide them into three intervals across the day. The pill she hates the most is fish oil, and she was exhausted from taking it. She added, “Okay, I can’t do this fish oil anymore. I have like pill fatigue.“
Kim did try to quit. But when her blood work revealed a noticeable deficiency in her body, she had to start taking it again. She said, “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 also revealed that fish oil is the hardest pill to take because of how long the taste lingers in your mouth.
Kim also expressed her frustration over the sheer size of some of the pills. “The pills are just so big!”. She said, “I wish there was like an IV drip I could do every day and I would just do it on my way to work.” But as exhausting as it gets, she keeps up with the regimen because health remains her top priority. “It’s just a good measure to go make sure that you always check everything,” she said. “And health is wealth. You just have to be careful with everything that you do.”
Health Still Remains The Top Priority For Kim Kardashian
To make sure her health stays in check, Kim also told Poehler about the annual full-body scans the Kardashian family gets every year. “I actually know a portable DEXA scan person that comes in a van and you lay down,” Kardashian shared. “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“.

She revealed, “You just lay down and it scans your body maybe like three minutes, and it tells you all about your bone density“. Kim’s focus on health isn’t something new. She made it her top priority after she was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm last year. In an episode of ‘The Kardashian’ in November 2025, she spoke with her sister Kourtney about it.
“I called Keith Black, the brain surgeon, and I sent him a picture of it. He was like, ‘I want you to come in for all this imaging'”. Kim was worried about the cause behind this and asked, “‘Can I wait? What makes it rupture?’ They’re like, ‘Just stress.’”
During that time, Kim had been studying for the bar exam for up to 10 hours a day. She he said that it pushed her stress to a “next level to the point of hives”. Although she ultimately failed the bar, Kim refused to add to her stress by dwelling on it. Instead, she stated, “I’m quite good at taking a failure and turning it into something, and I just don’t have the time to dwell.”
