Özet: The aim of this research is to determine the frequency and amount of consumption about food supplements by taking consumer ideas from every region of the country. The data obtained as a result of the research were evaluated using the Minitab program, using the mean, probability value (p value), percentage values and chi-square (χ²) significance test. The frequency of supplement use of consumers was determined as 45.1% 1-2 times a day (p> 0.05). The reason for using 39.4% of consumers who use food supplements is that they strengthen the immune system (p <0.05). 44.3% of consumers stated that they took supplements from vitamins (p <0.05). In addition, 46.2% of consumers using supplements stated that they benefited from food supplements (p <0.05). The participants stated that 52.87% did not agree with the statement that food supplements should be avoided (p <0.05). In the initial phase of use, it was observed that 59.7% started with the advice of doctors.
