It is suggested that, to minimize possible spurious associations, epidemiologic studies of diet, demography, or lifestyle and health take dietary supplement use into account because of supplements' large contribution to nutrient intake and differential use of supplements by demographic and lifestyle characteristics.

Dietary supplement use was lowest in obese adults and highest among non-Hispanic whites, older adults, and those with more than a high-school education, according to the NHANES 2003-2006, a nationally representative, cross-sectional survey.

Calcium intakes from food, water, dietary supplements, and antacids for U.S. citizens aged >or=1 y using NHANES 2003-2006 data and the Dietary Reference Intake panel age groupings were estimated and total usual nutrient intakes for calcium and vitamin D were calculated.
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D status of the US population: 1988-1994 compared with 2000-2004.

- 1 December 2008
Overall, mean serum 25(OH)D was lower in 2000-2004 than 1988-1994, and combined changes in BMI, milk intake, and sun protection appeared to contribute to a real decline in vitamin D status.

This review focuses on the relation between various outcomes of human reproduction and folate nutrition and metabolism, homocysteine metabolism, and polymorphisms of genes that encode folate-related enzymes or proteins, and identifies issues for future research.
Regulation of milk lipid secretion and composition.

- Biology, MedicineAnnual review of nutrition
- 1997
Evidence is presented that fatty acids may play a major regulatory role in acute changes in de novo mammary fatty acid synthesis, acting primarily on the activity of acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase.
Dietary supplement use among U.S. adults has increased since NHANES III (1988-1994).

This report provides estimates of dietary supplement use for specific population groups over time for men and women in most age groups, and focuses on estimates for specific nutrients consumed through dietary Supplement use.
Trends in blood folate and vitamin B-12 concentrations in the United States, 1988 2004.

The decrease in folate concentrations observed longer after fortification is small compared with the increase soon after the introduction of fortification, and therefore does not raise concerns about inadequate status.
Pregnancy and lactation: physiological adjustments, nutritional requirements and the role of dietary supplements.

- MedicineJournal of NutriLife
- 1 June 2003
The evidence is not strong that nutrient supplements confer measurable benefit and in future studies attention must be given to subject characteristics that may influence ability to meet maternal and infant demands, nutrient-nutrient interactions, sensitivity and selectivity of measured outcomes and proper use of proxy measures.
Total folate and folic acid intake from foods and dietary supplements in the United States: 2003-2006.
- R. Bailey, K. Dodd, M. Picciano
- MedicineAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition
- 2010
Improved total folate intake is warranted in targeted subgroups, which include women of childbearing age and non-Hispanic black women, whereas other population groups are at risk of excessive intake.
