Vitamins & Supplements

Supplements can interact with medicines and may not be appropriate for everyone. Food-first approaches and professional guidance are important.

What to consider

Start with the person’s needs, preferences, location, budget and timing. Ask providers for current details and compare the same questions across options.

Questions to ask

  • What services are included?
  • What additional fees can apply?
  • How are care needs assessed?
  • What staffing and support are available?
  • How often are prices, services and policies updated?
