What do dietary suppliments actually do? I haven't really found a straight answer online and I would really like to know if they help you lose weight or what?

    I don't think most food has the nutritional levels that it did 100 years ago.
    I think that my body doesn't get enough micro nutrients, especially when I eat at a deficit.
    From my personal research over the years, I believe that nutrition is very important and helps the body to function properly. Overweight is not healthy function. Using supplements helps the body get to healthy function - which could be that I lose weight more easliy because my body is fed adequate amounts of micro nutrients.

    Vitamins and minerals are not of equal quality, and this affects how well the body can absorb the nutrients.

    No suppliments don't make you lose weight. Eating less than you burn makes you lose weight.
