How do I read supplement labels?
Reading a supplement label doesnât have to be confusing! Hereâs what to focus on:
- Serving size â tells you how much counts as one serving.
- Ingredients list â shows everything in the product, usually in order of quantity.
- Active ingredients & amounts â these are the nutrients or compounds that deliver the benefits.
- % Daily Values â helps you see how much a serving contributes to your daily nutrition needs.
- Suggested use â guidelines on when and how to take the supplement safely.
Tip: Be cautious of proprietary blends â they list multiple ingredients under one name without showing exact amounts, making it harder to know what youâre getting.
