A '''dietary supplement''' is a manufactured product intended to supplement a person's diet by taking a [[pill (pharmacy)|pill]], [[capsule (pharmacy)|capsule]], [[tablet (pharmacy)|tablet]], powder, or liquid. A supplement can provide [[nutrient]]s either extracted from food sources, or that are synthetic (in order to increase the quantity of their consumption). The classes of nutrient compounds in supplements include [[vitamin]]s, [[Dietary mineral|minerals]], [[Dietary fiber|fiber]], [[fatty acid]]s, and [[amino acid]]s. Dietary supplements can also contain substances that have not been confirmed as being essential to life, and so are not ''nutrients'' per se, but are marketed as having a beneficial biological effect, such as plant [[pigment]]s or [[polyphenol]]s. Animals can also be a source of supplement ingredients, such as [[collagen]] from [[Wikipedia:chicken|chicken]]s or [[Wikipedia:fish|fish]] for example. These are also sold individually and in combination, and may be combined with nutrient ingredients. The [[Wikipedia:European Commission|European Commission]] has also established harmonized rules to help insure that food supplements are safe and appropriately labeled.
