摘要:What is already known about this topic? Approximately one third of U.S. children and adolescents take dietary supplements; use varies by demographic characteristics. What is added by this report? The most recently released dietary supplement use estimates from the 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) demonstrate that dietary supplement use remained stable and prevalent among U.S. children and adolescents aged ≤19 years (34.0%). Use of two or more dietary supplements differed by demographic characteristics and increased from 2009–2010 (4.3%) to 2017–2018 (7.1%). What are the implications for public health practice? NHANES will continue to measure dietary supplement use among children and adolescents to inform clinical practice and dietary recommendations.
