Unlock Peak Health & Discover Premier Supplements Today!

Inform your healthcare providers about any dietary supplements you take, including doctors, dentists, pharmacists, and dietitians. They can help you determine which supplements might be valuable for you. 

 

Keep a complete record of any dietary supplements and medicines you take. For each product, note the name, the dose you take, how often you take it, and the reason for use. You can share this record with your healthcare providers to discuss what’s best for your overall health. 

 

Keep in Mind

 

• Consult your healthcare provider before taking dietary supplements to treat a health condition.

• Get your healthcare provider’s approval before taking dietary supplements in place of or in combination with prescribed medicines.

• If you are scheduled to have any surgical procedure, talk with your healthcare provider about any supplements you take. 

• Keep in mind the term “natural” doesn’t always mean safe. Some all-natural botanical products, such as comfrey and kava, can harm the liver. A dietary supplement’s safety depends on many things, such as its chemical makeup, how it works in the body, how it is prepared, and the amount you take. 

• Before taking any dietary supplement, use the information sources listed in this brochure and talk to your healthcare providers to answer these questions:

  • What are its potential benefits for me?

  • Does it have any safety risks?

  • What is the proper dose to take?

  • How, when, and for how long should I take it?
