Resources on Dietary Supplements


Resources on Dietary Supplements
More than one-half of U.S adults take dietary supplements, according to the Center for Disease Control. The report, which appears in the CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics’ Data Brief, looked at dietary supplement use among adults from 2003 to 2006, and compared it to use in 1988 to 1994.

Before taking a dietary supplement it pays to do some research.  The USDA National Agricultural Library has a number of great resources on dietary supplements.  https://fnic.nal.usda.gov/dietary-supplements. In addition, contact your health care provider.
