Journal of Dietary Supplements (JDS)

The Journal of Dietary Supplements (JDS) publishes original research studies relevant to dietary supplements, as defined per the U.S. Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994 [108 Stat. 4325]. DSHEA defines the term "dietary supplement" as a product (other than tobacco) intended to supplement the diet that bears or contains one or more of the following dietary ingredients: a vitamin, a mineral, an herb or other botanical, an amino acid, a dietary substance for use by humans to supplement the diet by increasing total dietary intake, or a concentrate, metabolite, constituent, extract, or combination of the aforementioned ingredients. A dietary supplement is intended for ingestion in the form of a tablet, capsule, soft-gel, powder, or liquid and NOT in the form of a conventional food (studies of individual foods or dietary patterns will be rejected). The Journal publishes the following types of manuscripts: Original research articles Perspectives Scoping, systematic, and umbrella reviews Narrative reviews Reports from authoritative scientific groups or government agencies Guidelines and consensus statements Letters to the editor Letters to the Editor that refer to a recent Journal of Dietary Supplements original research article must be received within 12 weeks of the article's online publication. All letters will be subjected to editorial review and decision before acceptance. The Journal of Dietary Supplements does not accept letters that are unrelated to a specific, recently published original research article; that contain extensive unpublished data; or that engage in personal slander or invective. The Journal of Dietary Supplements does not print letters to the editor based on opinion pieces such as editorials, perspectives, commentaries, and the like, since these are clearly the opinions of the authors. Letters should be submitted by e-mail to taylor.wallace@me.com
