Nutritional supplements are very popular with our patients. They are supposed to provide benefits that may not be present in our typical diet. Vitamins and minerals are the most common supplements taken, followed closely by sports nutrition products such as protein powders and energy drinks. Consumers buy supplements because they’re readily available, relatively low cost and they believe that supplements will help them achieve health benefits. Patients often assume that supplements are safe, yet some can cause significant health problems, especially when taken in higher doses. Some have the potential to interact with various prescription medications. Are there nutritional supplements our patients should be taking? Which ones are potentially harmful? How safe are these products and do supplements have any regulatory oversight? These are questions I’ll be asking my guest, Andrew R. Jagim, Ph.D., Director of Sports Medicine Research at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Nutritional Supplements”.
