Just what are Dietary Supplements?

Congress defined the term “dietary supplement” in the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994 as a product taken by mouth that contains a “dietary ingredient” intended to supplement the diet.

The “dietary ingredients” in these products may include: vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, and substances such as enzymes, organ tissues, glandulars, and metabolites.

Whatever their form may be, DSHEA places dietary supplements in a special category under the general umbrella of “foods” not drugs, and requires that every supplement be labeled a dietary supplement.
