• Languages of publication: PL

The market of dietary supplements in Poland has been developing dynamically. In 2015, we spent 3.5 billion zloty on supplements. It is not totally clear what we consume, however, since approval for marketing of supplements and their sale are not controlled effectively. The laboratory research ordered by NIK proved that many of these products do not have the features that are indicated on their packages, and that some of them are harmful. NIK also observed some reprehensible practices of their producers and distributors who frequently advertise supplements as equal to medicinal products. NIK indicates that it is due to the passive attitude of state bodies, and warns that it may lead to threats to the consumers’ health or even life.
