With increased marketing, variety and availability of supplements, how can health care practitioners (let alone consumers) decide what is safe and effective? Furthermore, how can holistic nutrition professionals effectively counsel their clients about supplementation in a milieu of increasing public awareness? This workshop addresses these concerns by providing students with a sound foundation in the wise use of dietary supplements. It includes information on manufacturing practices, interactions, orthomolecular alternatives to drugs, labeling, governmental regulations, standardization, whole food supplements, etc. Furthermore, it discusses, in detail, some of the most commonly used nutritional supplements such as individual and multivitamins/minerals, fibre, sea algae, greens, digestive enzymes, probiotics, EFAs, etc.
