Abstract
Health authorities around the world, including stringent ones, struggle to regulate dietary supplements. Health claims and actual effects of these products on users therefore are not adequately studied and monitored. In Gaborone, there has been a notable rise in the presence of these products in health stores, retail pharmacies, and gyms. The purpose of this study is to explore the prevalence of use and consumer perception of dietary supplements in the fitness community of Gaborone, Botswana
