Bethesda, MD -- The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) at
the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announces the
availability of the first issue of the "Annual Bibliography
of Significant Advances in Dietary Supplement Research".
Developed as a joint effort of ODS and the Consumer
Healthcare Products Association (CHPA), this publication
illustrates how the dietary supplement field is advancing
through quality research.
"We are very pleased with the first issue of this
bibliography," said Paul M. Coates, Ph.D., Director of ODS.
"It is important to promote sound, scientific research in
this field, especially since dietary supplements are being
used by so many Americans. This bibliography provides an
excellent opportunity to give well-deserved recognition to
the scientists conducting dietary supplement research."
To develop the bibliography, ODS and CHPA contacted editors
of peer-reviewed journals asking them to nominate original
research papers from their respective journals in 1999. In
response to this request, over 200 nominations were
received and then forwarded to scientific experts to review
and identify the top 25.
Rebecca B. Costello, Ph.D., Deputy Director of ODS, said
"The ODS is delighted to partner with CHPA on a long
overdue publication that highlights scientifically sound
research on dietary supplements and their role in health
maintenance. The staff of ODS and CHPA are so excited that
work has already begun on the bibliography for the year
2000. We envision this bibliography will serve as a useful
reference source for nutrition and health professionals,
educators, and health communicators, as well as the
scientists who conduct the research."
Copies of the first "Annual Bibliography of Significant
Advances in Dietary Supplement Research" may be downloaded
from the ODS website at

Single copies may also be requested by contacting the ODS
office (301-435-2920 or ods@nih.gov).
