Clinical studies
Limited human research has been conducted on the potential for dietary supplementation to affect disease risk. Examples:
- vitamin D – acute respiratory tract infections
- iron – maternal iron deficiency anemia and adverse effects on the fetus
- multiple supplements – no evidence of benefit to lower risk of death, cardiovascular diseases or cancer
- magnesium supplementation – in reducing all-cause and cancer mortality, as well as improving glucose parameters in people with diabetes and insulin-sensitivity parameters in those at high risk of diabetes.
- folate alone or with B vitamins – stroke
