As a nutritionist, I often get asked about supplementation and review people's self-medication of vitamins and supplements and a range of products.
My general rule is "If you don't need it, don't take it". "Less is often more" and " if it has the power to heal it has the power to harm". You need to take into account the dosage and timing of taking the supplements as they can compete with other nutrients or need other nutrients to be absorbed. So it is important to always seek professional advice, especially for health conditions. When taken correctly for the right reasons supplementation should have measurable health outcomes.
Like a lot of natural products, the quality is graded (low grade vs high good quality) and subject to multiple factors; including price where you pay for what you get.
