consommation des compléments alimentaires

je suis abonné à un site qui analyse les compléments alimentaires : consumerlab.com.

Dans leur dernière newsletter, ils reportent la consommation habituelle de 1500 personnes, c’est intéressant.

  • The five most popular products were, in order, fish oil, multivitamins, vitamin D, calcium and CoQ10.
  • Use of vitamin D surged in 2010 to 56.2% of those surveyed, up from 47.9% in 2009 and 36.9% in 2008 – a 52% increase over the two-year period.
