Fort Pierce: (RightNow) The trend of dietary supplements is rising after weight loss drugs, but experts express concerns over potential risks. With the increase in supplement use, their sales have also significantly risen.

Experts state that limited oversight on the production and sale of supplements makes it difficult for consumers to assess potential harms. An American nurse reported that supplements helped improve her health, but she spends $200 to $300 monthly on them.

Novo Nordisk’s GLP-1 drugs have played a crucial role in obesity treatment, but due to side effects, people are turning to supplements. Experts say social media promotion also contributes to the popularity of supplements.

It is clear that due to the increasing sale and promotion of dietary supplements, stricter monitoring is being considered in the U.S. Companies are accused of including drug ingredients in supplement production.

It is noteworthy that proposals are being made to tighten supplement regulations to protect consumers from unverified claims and potential harms. Experts emphasize the need for transparent promotion and effective monitoring.
