Have you had an adverse event from using dietary supplements?
This is an excellent video that provides supplement users insight on the risks associated with their use. From HPRC, Col. Francis O’Connor, MD, MPH, talks about how healthcare professionals can determine if a patient is taking dietary supplements and how to report adverse events to the FDA. Dr. O’Connor is an Associate Professor at the Uniformed Services University, Medical Director for the Consortium on Health and Military Performance (CHAMP), Medical Director of the Human Performance Resource Center (HPRC), and a Colonel in the U.S. Army. http://hprc-online.org/dietary-supplements/opss/operation-supplement-safety-OPSS/tools-for-providers
