According to a press article, Argentine specialists have observed an increase in the consumption of food supplements, especially three: multivitamin complexes (due to the fatigue and feeling of low performance felt by the population), vitamin D (due to the lack of sun exposure brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic) and vitamin B12 (related to the increase of vegan and vegetarian diets in the country).
Ana María Capeletti, a nutritionist member of the Argentina Nutrition Society (SAN), said that in the case of vitamin D there is a high prevalence of deficiency among the population, so supplements are often indicated.
