What is a Dietary Supplement?
The term “dietary supplement” refers to the broad category of substances you eat or drink to supplement your diet, help your body function, and simply support your overall health and wellness. However, dietary supplements are not substitutes for a well-rounded diet and are also not meant for treating any disease or health condition, as they are not medicines. Keep reading to learn more about the variety of dietary supplements available today and how they can help you detox cleanse.
Forms and Constituents of Dietary Supplements
The most common form of a dietary supplement is a pill or a capsule, but they also come in the form of foods, powders, soft gels, gelcaps, tablets, gummies, liquids, and intra-oral sprays, our preferred method.
Intra-oral sprays have been shown more effective at delivering ingredients than a capsule. A study published in 2019 by The European Journal of Clinical Nutrition cites several advantages to using an intra-oral spray over a soft-gel capsule, most notably that absorption from an intra-oral spray may be faster due to it bypassing the gastrointestinal system.
As you can see, there is a wide variety of dietary supplements on the market. Two of the most popular reasons for taking dietary supplements are to detox cleanse the body and to build immune support.
Dietary supplement products can contain one or a combination of any of the following ingredients:
- Minerals
- Vitamins
- Herbs or other botanicals
- Amino acids
- Enzymes
- Concentrates, metabolites, constituents, or extracts
Regulations and Standards for Dietary Supplements
According to the NIH, the FDA has established Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) that dietary supplement companies follow to ensure the identity, strength, composition, and purity of their supplements. These practices prevent using the wrong ingredients (and wrong amount) and reduce the likelihood of contamination or improper packaging and labeling. The Food and Drug Administration periodically inspects dietary supplement companies.

Our company is GMP certified, and we pride ourselves on making our formulas in-house with the highest quality ingredients.

Availability of Dietary Supplements
Dietary supplements are readily available in drug stores, health food stores, fitness centers, grocery stores, and online—but that does not mean all dietary supplements are created equal. It is important as a consumer to do your research and consult your healthcare provider before purchasing a dietary supplement.
If you’re looking for a dietary supplement company you can trust, you’ve come to the right place. With formulations for health concerns across the board, highest quality ingredients, and Advanced Cellular Technology, our Intra-oral dietary supplements are more effective than those found in other delivery forms, such as capsules and pills.
