What Is a Food Supplement: A Science-Based Guide
A food supplement is a concentrated source of nutrients—such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, electrolytes, or protein—designed to support the normal diet, not replace food.

They are regulated as foods, not drugs, and should be used with proper dosing, quality verification, and realistic expectations.
