Americans spend billions of dollars each year trying to stay or get healthy. The diet, health, nutritional supplement, pharmaceutical and medical industries all play a part in today’s health market. Consumers visit their doctors for advice and prescriptions; buy over the counter medicines, purchase health and vitamin supplements, and try to keep up with the ever-changing information about diet and exercise guidelines all in an effort to feel good and healthy. Nutritional and vitamin supplements are intended for preventative measures while doctors are involved in diagnostic and treatment measures when there is an existing illness.
