FEROSUP KNOWLEDGE BASE · Supplements

Two preparations purchased for different reasons may contain the same vitamins or minerals. Therefore, before adding another product, it is worth making one list. This review helps spot duplication, but does not replace individual evaluation of concomitant drug use.

Write down ingredients, not just brand names

Please include the exact version of the product and the portion you are taking. Advertising names may hide a common ingredient in a preparation for hair, vitality and daily dietary supplement. Also include products taken occasionally. Without a complete list, it's easy to miss a second source for the same ingredient.

Reduce data to a common unit

Only add quantities of the same ingredient and the same unit. The weight of an extract is not the amount of each substance present in it. When the label does not provide a value, select no data. Do not replace it with an estimate from a similar product or an average found in the plant description.

Separate summation from security assessment

A valid sum does not indicate whether a given connection is valid. Interactions may also involve medications and chronic diseases. Show your doctor or pharmacist the full labels, not just a list of minerals. Also report planned treatments and all preparations used.

Update instead of accumulating

When purchasing a new version, check the ingredients again. Changed packaging or number of capsules may be accompanied by different instructions. Don't set yourself a pattern of increasing the amount based on the fact that you don't notice the expected effect. If unwanted symptoms occur, discontinue use and seek advice.
