有关食品补充剂使用情况的数据收集自西部 7 个州的 2451 名成年人。各州之间没有确定显着差异。大多数 (66.6%) 的样本使用某种形式的食品补充剂，其中 40.0% 的人每天食用一到三种补充剂。膳食补充剂使用者的原型可能是受过大学教育的年轻女性，她们认为过去10年食品的营养质量以及补充剂预防或治疗疾病的功效有所下降，主要从书籍和保健食品商店获取有关食品和营养的信息。相应地，除了“预防感冒和其他疾病”之外，使用食品补充剂最常被提及的原因之一是“补充食物中没有的成分”。三种最常用的食品补充剂（按排名顺序）是多种维生素、维生素 C 和多种维生素加铁。
Data on food supplement usage were collected from 2451 adults in seven Western states. No significant differences were determined among states. A majority (66.6%) of the sample used some form of food supplements, with 40.0% consuming one to three supplements per day. The archetype food supplement user was likely to be a young female with some college education, who believes that the nutritional quality of food has decreased in the last 10 yr and in the efficacy of supplements for disease prevention or cure, and primarily receives information concerning food and nutrition from books and health food stores. Correspondingly, one of the most frequently cited reasons for using food supplements, next to "to prevent colds and other illnesses" was "to make up for what is not in food." The three most frequently used food supplements, in rank order, were multiple vitamins, vitamin C, and multiple vitamins plus iron.
