Most American adults and more than a third of children use dietary supplements, according to a new study from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 

Researchers from the National Center for Health Statistics only looked at supplement use from 2017 to March 2020.

Experts say use is probably even higher now because it increased during the Covid-19 pandemic, especially before the arrival of vaccines and treatments. 

The new study used information from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a set of nationally representative surveys of the US population.

The new research revealed some demographic clues: women used dietary supplements more than men, and the more educated they were, the more likely they were to use a supplement.
