Many adults and children in developed countries today take one or more vitamins and other nutritional supplements. In addition to vitamins, dietary supplements may contain minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, enzymes, and other ingredients. The most commonly used nutritional supplements include vitamins D and B12, minerals such as calcium and iron, herbs such as echinacea and garlic, and products such as glucosamine, probiotics, and fish oils.
Products offered to consumers as dietary supplements carry a label that lists the active ingredients, dosages, as well as other ingredients such as fillers, binders and flavorings.
Some nutritional supplements help people who don't consume a nutritionally diverse diet to get enough essential nutrients. However, supplements cannot replace the foods necessary for a healthy diet. Nevertheless, some supplements can improve overall health and help manage certain health conditions. For example, calcium and vitamin D help keep bones strong and reduce bone loss. Folic acid reduces the risk of certain birth defects. Omega-3 fatty acids support some people with heart disease. Vitamins C and E, zinc, and copper help prevent age-related vision problems.
