Dietary supplements are essentially used to fulfill nutritional deficiencies in humans. Dietary supplements are any vitamin, mineral, herbal product, or other ingestible preparation added to a person's diet to improve their health. Chemical compounds such as pharmaceuticals or licensed as biologics are included in dietary supplements unless the compound has previously been marketed as a dietary supplement or a food. In Europe, dietary Supplements are often sold alongside conventional over-the-counter medications in retail outlets. While the dietary supplements are not intended to treat, cure, mitigate or diagnose diseases, many consumers often consider them substitutes for conventional medications. The Labels on dietary supplements also serve as a mechanism by which manufacturers can make claims about their supplements. Such claims generally fall into one of three categories: health-related, nutrient content-related, or structure/function-related. An exception is if the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved it for a health claim. Vitamins and minerals are known as micronutrients. They help nourish the body and keep it healthy.
