viðbættu

Viðbættu is an Icelandic term that translates to "supplement" or "additional" in English. It is most commonly used in the context of food and nutrition to refer to dietary supplements. These are products intended to supplement the diet and contain one or more dietary ingredients, such as vitamins, minerals, herbs, or amino acids, or their constituents. Viðbættu can also be used more broadly to describe anything added as an extra or supplementary item, whether it be in a recipe, a service, or a piece of equipment. For example, in cooking, a chef might add a viðbættu of herbs to enhance the flavor of a dish. In a business context, a viðbættu might refer to an add-on service or feature. The specific meaning of viðbættu is therefore dependent on the context in which it is used, but the core concept remains the idea of something that is added to enhance or complete something else.
