Safe use

As the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advises, dietary supplements can support your overall health but may also have powerful effects on the body. It’s important to read labels carefully, exercise caution, and consult your healthcare professional before taking any supplement. Side effects are more likely if supplements are taken in high doses, as substitutes for prescribed medications, or in combination with multiple supplements. If you experience severe side effects, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention.
