Are Health Supplements Right For You?

The past decade has seen a dramatic increase in the number of people wanting to take responsibility for their own health, and greater interest in the role played by diet in maintaining good health. It has also seen an increase in the number of health supplements available in as well as a growing awareness of the benefits of health supplements for many people.

However the proliferation of supplements and vitamins now widely available, as well as the publication of information on health supplements that is often conflicting, has inevitably resulted in some confusion amongst consumers.

The Health Supplements Information Service was set up in 1999 to provide up-to-date information about vitamins, minerals and food supplements and this information has been produced to answer some of the most common questions asked about these products - as well as dispel some of the most common myths!

It is clear that many of us can benefit from supplements at certain times in our lives and we hope to help you make informed choices.
