摘要：The purpose of this paper is to determine the potential risks involved in the growing consumption of dietary supplements, and the scale of this issue. Attempts were made to assess consumer awareness and analyze the behavior of the Polish population vis-à-vis dietary supplements. Foreign and Polish literature was reviewed, and reports published by national and international organizations were used to achieve this goal. Based on scientific publications and statistical data analyzed, it was noted that supplements are popular products, and that the dietary supplements market has been developing rapidly in recent years. The Polish population is increasingly interested in this type of products. However, the conclusion from the sources covered by this analysis is that the general population exhibits relatively low levels of awareness. Therefore, dietary supplements are products that may in some cases be dangerous to health. In order to increase consumer safety, extensive educational and informational measures should be taken. Also, product inspection tools currently used in the supplements market need to be examined.
