Why were these specific nutrients in adult multivitamin/minerals (MVMs) chosen for inclusion in DSID?
A consortium of federal partners convened by the Office of Dietary Supplements established DSID priorities for products and ingredients of public health and research interest. Adult MVM products were identified as a top priority because they are the most commonly reported dietary supplement in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The vitamins and minerals for analysis were determined based on prevalence of consumption, public health interest, and the availability of reliable analytical methods for specific compounds.
