摘要

背景使用互联网研究和购买膳食补充剂(DS)的现象正在迅速增加,尤其是在 COVID-19 大流行影响了人们在网上寻求与健康问题相关的信息之后。研究评估了通过互联网搜索获得的 75 种用于改善认知能力和预防认知退化的膳食补充剂的在线销售网站信息。74.3%的保健食品中含有辅助物质的数据,92.7%的保健食品中说明了使用方法。然而,有关参考文献(10.7%)、作用机理(50.7%)、药理作用(9.3%)和毒理作用(5.3%)以及有无过敏原(21.3%)的信息则少得多。41.3%的保健食品没有提供警告信息,77.3%的保健食品有一些关于潜在不良/副作用的信息。声称是保健品促销的主要驱动力,在所有被评估的保健品中都存在,但在美国产品中并不总是有食品和药物管理局的免责声明(8.2%),而在欧盟产品中,多达 90.9% 的产品至少有一项未经批准的声称。有必要加强检查监督,也有必要对公众进行教育,让他们认识到互联网上的信息是安全和经过验证的。

Internet marketing of dietary supplements for improving memory and cognitive abilities

Background

The use of the internet for researching and purchasing dietary supplements (DS) is rapidly increasing, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic influenced people to seek information related to health problems online. However, internet marketing is not subject to strict controls and can potentially mislead consumers.

Methods

The study assessed information obtained through internet search on websites for online sale of 75 DS intended for cognitive improvement and prevention of cognitive degeneration.

Results

The analysis revealed a wide array of active substances (126), most often three or more being present in one DS (61.3%). Data on auxiliary substances were present in 74.3% of DS, with 92.7% of DS specifying usage instructions. However, information on references (10.7%), mechanism of action (50.7%), pharmacological (9.3%) and toxicological (5.3%) effects, as well as presence or absence of allergens (21.3%), were considerably less represented. Warnings were not provided in 41.3% of DS, while 77.3% had some information on potential adverse/side effects. Claims, as the primary drivers of supplement promotion, were present in all assessed DS, but in case of USA products were not always followed by FDA disclaimer (8.2%), while in case of EU products, as many as 90.9% had at least one unapproved claim.

Conclusion

Stricter regulations for advertising and selling DS are necessary, along with harmonization among countries, as the internet is a global space that transcends national borders and laws. There is a necessity to enhance inspection oversight and a need for public education on recognizing secure and verified information on the internet.
