Food Supplement

A food supplement is, typically, a nutrient added to a foodstuff which would otherwise not contain that nutrient. In general, the term is restricted to those additives which are deemed to be positive for health, growth or well-being.

Several ranges of food supplements are recognised:

additives which repair a deficit to "normal" levels

additives which appear to enhance a food

supplements taken in addition to the normal diet
