The dietary supplement market has exploded in recent years. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a multi-billion dollar industry that currently includes over 50,000 products including vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids, metabolites, etc., with 1,000 new supplements being introduced each year. Therefore with such market saturation, it really is not too surprising to learn that more than two-thirds of Americans take some type of dietary supplement, according to the FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.
