Advice for Supplements
What are Food Supplements?
Food supplements may include protein products, fibre supplements, meal replacement products, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals and other nutritional ingredients.
Some people choose supplements to help support specific health goals, including:
- Sports performance
- Weight management
- Digestive wellbeing
- Maintaining nutritional intake during periods of reduced appetite
Who Should Use Supplements?
You may want to use supplements if you:
- Want to support protein intake during exercise or muscle recovery
- Are using weight loss medication, such as Orlistat, Wegovy or Mounjaro, and want help maintaining your nutritional intake
- Are looking to support digestive wellbeing and increase your fibre intake
- Need additional hydration support during exercise or illness
- Want to support your general nutrition and wellbeing
If you have an existing medical condition, are pregnant, or take prescription medication, you should speak to a pharmacist before starting any supplements.
Supplements Alongside GLP-1 Weight Loss Treatments
If you’re using a GLP-1 medication such as Mounjaro or Wegovy, you may be looking for ways to support your nutrition during treatment.
Because GLP-1 medications can reduce appetite, you may find it more difficult to maintain your usual nutritional intake through food alone. To help support protein intake, hydration and digestive wellbeing during treatment, some people choose nutritional supplements such as protein shakes, fibre supplements and electrolyte products.
Important Information About Supplements
Although supplements are widely used, they may not be suitable for everyone.
Some supplements can interact with prescription medications or may not be appropriate for certain medical conditions. Always read the product information carefully and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

- Fibre supplements can help increase your fibre intake and support digestive wellbeing.
- Electrolyte supplements can help support hydration by replacing minerals lost through exercise or illness.

Can I buy supplements online safely in the UK?
Yes. Buying supplements online from a trusted, fully regulated UK pharmacy can help provide reassurance that your supplements are genuine, appropriately stored and supplied to high standards.
When buying supplements online, it's a good idea to look for:
- A registered UK pharmacy
- Clear product information and ingredients lists
- Contact details and access to professional advice
- Products from recognised and reputable manufacturers
Are protein supplements suitable for weight loss?
Protein supplements may help support weight loss and weight management when used alongside a balanced diet and regular exercise. Protein can help you feel fuller for longer, which may reduce snacking and help you maintain a calorie deficit. It also helps preserve muscle mass while losing weight, supporting your overall health and metabolism.
However, protein supplements are not a substitute for healthy eating and should be used to complement, rather than replace, a nutritious diet.
What supplements are commonly used alongside GLP-1 weight loss treatments?
Can supplements cause side effects?
Some supplements may cause side effects or interact with medications. For example, St John’s Wort can interact with antidepressants, oral contraception and blood thinners among others, making these medications less effective, while calcium and protein powders can reduce the effectiveness of thyroid medications and certain antibiotics.
You should always read the product information carefully and speak to a pharmacist if you have any concerns.
Can I take supplements with prescription medication?
Some supplements may interact with prescription medicines. If you take regular medication or have an existing medical condition, you should speak to a pharmacist before starting supplements.
Are supplements regulated in the UK?
Supplement regulation in the UK is overseen by organisations including the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and the Department of Health and Social Care. You can learn more about UK supplement regulations here.
Purchasing supplements from a trusted UK pharmacy, such as The Independent Pharmacy, should provide reassurance around product quality and supply standards.
Are supplements a replacement for a healthy diet?
No. Supplements are intended to support, rather than replace, a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Maintaining a varied diet and regular exercise remains important for overall health.
