Vitamin Supplements Buying Guide

When shopping for vitamin supplements, consider these important factors to ensure you're getting a quality product:

• Form and bioavailability: Look for vitamins in their most bioavailable forms that your body can easily absorb and utilize.
• Dosage: Check that dosages are within effective ranges without exceeding upper limits for safety.
• Third-party testing: Choose products verified by independent organizations like USP, NSF, or ConsumerLab.
• Additional ingredients: Be aware of fillers, artificial colors, allergens, and other additives that may cause reactions.
• Natural vs. synthetic: Understand the differences between natural and synthetic vitamin forms for your specific needs.
• Dietary considerations: Check if the supplement meets your dietary requirements (vegan, gluten-free, etc.).
• Potential interactions: Research possible interactions with medications or other supplements you're taking.
