A recent report of the USDHHS Inspector Generl found that 70% of the US population had tried suppelemnts.

    3. DSID 3 Needed to quantify exposure/public health impact of dietary supplements: Validated/standardized instruments to collect data Composition of dietary supplements Validated tools to analyze data Validated approaches to merge with dietary intakes to obtain total intakes

    4. DSID 4 Need for DSID Accurate measurement of intakes and exposures requires: Databases of DS labels (NCHS/CDC) and ingredients (USDA) Methods and reference materials program DS databases not yet based on analytical data Amounts of ingredients in DS unknown except for label claims

    5. DSID 5 Ultimate Goal for Dietary Supplement Databases Use improved databases to research role of dietary supplements in optimal physical and mental health disease prevention, risk factor reduction effects on biological systems, and physiological impact across life cycle Make available to public Reach out and inform public
