In a new economic report by Frost & Sullivan and the Council for Responsible Nutrition Foundation, the potential for savings was examined. The report found that supplements taken preventatively could reduce numbers of medical events. This indicates the equivalent of hundreds of millions of dollars in health care savings.
The report studied four types of chronic disease. U.S. adults with these diseases used one of eight supplement regimens. Medical events (emergency room visits or inpatient procedures) related to the disease were reduced. For example, normal medical events related to coronary heart disease cost $77.92 billion a year. But the report found that supplement intake could reduce this. Men and women over 55 with high cholesterol took psyllium dietary fiber. The resulting decrease in medical cost amounts to almost $2.5 billion dollars a year.
