许多调查表明，大部分公众使用膳食补充剂，但对包括医生和护士在内的保健专业人员使用膳食补充剂的流行情况进行的调查相对较少。关于医生和护士向患者推荐膳食补充剂的程度的信息甚至更少。2007年10月，益普索公共事务部为代表膳食补充剂行业的行业协会“负责任营养理事会”（CRN）对900名医生和277名护士进行了一项在线调查。卫生专业人员被问及他们是否使用膳食补充剂及其这样做的原因，以及他们是否向患者推荐膳食补充剂。《生活…补充的”医疗保健专业人员影响研究（HCP影响研究）发现，该样本中72%的医生和89%的护士定期、偶尔或季节性使用膳食补充剂。51%的医生和59%的护士报告经常使用膳食补充剂。使用膳食补充剂的最常见原因是整体健康和健康（40%的医生和48%的护士），但超过三分之二的人使用该产品的原因不止一个。当被问及他们是否“曾经向患者推荐膳食补充剂”时，79%的医生和82%的护士说他们这样做了。医生和护士与一般公众一样可能使用膳食补充剂，这一点通过将这项调查的结果与国家健康和营养调查的数据进行比较而得到证明。此外，大多数医生和护士向他们的患者推荐补充剂，无论临床医生自己是否使用膳食补充剂。
Numerous surveys show that dietary supplements are used by a large proportion of the general public, but there have been relatively few surveys on the prevalence of dietary supplement use among health professionals, including physicians and nurses. Even less information is available regarding the extent to which physicians and nurses recommend dietary supplements to their patients. An online survey was administered in October 2007 to 900 physicians and 277 nurses by Ipsos Public Affairs for the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), a trade association representing the dietary supplement industry. The health professionals were asked whether they used dietary supplements and their reasons for doing so, and whether they recommend dietary supplements to their patients. The "Life...supplemented" Healthcare Professionals Impact Study (HCP Impact Study) found that 72% of physicians and 89% of nurses in this sample used dietary supplements regularly, occasionally, or seasonally. Regular use of dietary supplements was reported by 51% of physicians and 59% of nurses. The most common reason given for using dietary supplements was for overall health and wellness (40% of physicians and 48% of nurses), but more than two-thirds cited more than one reason for using the products. When asked whether they "ever recommend dietary supplements" to their patients, 79% of physicians and 82% of nurses said they did. Physicians and nurses are as likely as members of the general public to use dietary supplements, as shown by comparing the results of this survey with data from national health and nutrition surveys. Also, most physicians and nurses recommend supplements to their patients, whether or not the clinicians use dietary supplements themselves.
