Supplements Can Help Dieters Meet Daily Nutritional Requirements

November 2005

Dietary supplements can play a key role in helping dieters meet their daily nutritional requirements, according to researchers in the Office of Dietary Supplements at the National Institutes of Health. In a review published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, researchers noted that "the goal in planning weight-reduction diets is that total intake from food and supplements should meet recommended dietary allowance/adequate intake levels...If nutrient amounts from food sources in the reducing diet fall short...a multivitamin-mineral combination may be helpful."
