supliment

Supliment is not a standard term in English and is typically a misspelling of supplement. In some cases, writers may use "supliment" by error or as a brand name, but the conventional term is "supplement."

A supplement is something added to complete or enhance something else. In nutrition and health contexts, a dietary supplement is a product intended to supplement the diet and may contain vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids, enzymes, or other substances. It is not meant to replace a balanced diet or to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

Common forms include pills or capsules, powders, gels, liquids, and gummies. Ingredients vary widely and may be marketed to support general health, fill nutrient gaps, or provide specific compounds such as omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, or protein. Dose, quality, and potential interactions with medications can vary, so careful selection and adherence to labeled instructions are important.

Regulation and safety: Dietary supplements are regulated differently from medicines in many countries. Manufacturers are generally responsible for product safety and labeling; claims must be truthful and not misleading. Regulatory authorities can take action against unsafe products, and consumers should discuss use with healthcare providers, especially when pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or managing health conditions.

Etymology and usage: The word supplement has a long history in general language and is used in contexts beyond nutrition, such as supplements to a program or policy. "Supliment" is commonly a misspelling and not used in formal writing.
