Reply To: what qualifies as supplementing?

[Ryann Kipping, MPH, RDN, LDN]

Hey! Good question! I wouldn’t count fortification (i.e. the added vitamin D to milk, the only instances where there would POTENTIALLY be an exception is vitamin A (retinol) which I saw was added to one flavor of Halo Top ice cream), but I would count extra nutrients add to things like protein powders. This is definitely the reason I recommend finding a protein powder that doesn’t also serve as a “multivitamin”, but instead just provides protein.
