A lot of dietary supplements are available in the market and many are sold directly. Does fssai have any standards for it. A large percent of urban adolescent population is having them and I would like to find out whats genuine versus fakes.
Now a days even doctors suggest dietry supplements because they get lot of commission from the concerned companies. This leads to a lot of confusion with the patient. The patient does not know whether he requires it genuinely. more
Dietary supplements are required only in certain specific case and not routinely. As long as one is consuming a normal diet and is in good health, these supplements are not warranted. Those suffering from some disease or the elderly may need these. Unfortunately the power of advertising/social media is so strong that the market for these products is created.

When we are going to change our mind set in favour of genuine products is a big question whether it is law enforcement agencies or common educated consumer. more
