## Put it into practice

Write down what you expect, what the product contains and who recommends it. Natural does not automatically mean safe.

## Things to keep in mind

Supplements can interact with medicines. For suspected deficiencies, pregnancy or illness, discuss the need and dose with a doctor or pharmacist; avoid combining products at random.

## Your next step

- Identify the need
- Read the ingredients
- Check interactions
