Before taking a supplement, ask:

• Can this supplement help with a health concern? If so, how much is the recommended dosage?

• Does this supplement have any harms associated with it? What are the potential side effects?

• Could this supplement interact with prescription medications? What about over-the-counter medications?

• Does this supplement contain what it says it does? An independent third-party, such as NSF.org, is a trusted product testing and inspection organization that can help consumers find tested supplements. 

• What does my doctor and pharmacist have to say about me taking this supplement?
