ABSTRACT
The aim of this paper was evaluation of prevalence of supplementation according to demographic, economic and healthy factors and assessment of vitamins and minerals intake from supplements in Polish population aged 20-74 years. Data of 3132 men and 3529 women, from whom data about use of vitamins and minerals supplements on the day before examination was obtained, was used. Prevalence of supplement use in the study group was rather small and depended on gender, place of residence, education level and income. Mean intake from supplements of the majority of vitamins was higher than recommended daily allowance (RDA). Only iron intake from supplements was higher than RDA, however calcium and magnesium intake from supplements was 25% of RDA. High vitamin A, niacin and iron intake from supplements can display risk of adverse effect on health.
