Whole Food Supplements
Food supplements, also known as dietary or nutritional supplements, are derived from natural, nutrient-dense sources such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, herbs, and other plant-based ingredients and offer myriad health benefits. More generally speaking, food supplements are intended to complement the diet and provide nutrients that may be missing or insufficient in a person's everyday diet. In other words, food supplements aim to bolster an individual’s nutritional profile.
Most Popular Whole Food Supplements
Acai Berry – These are small, purple fruits native to the Amazon rainforest and are revered for their high antioxidant content and robust therapeutic properties. Acai berries contain essential nutrients like vitamins A, C, and E and minerals like potassium, calcium, magnesium, and fibre.
Chlorella – Another type of green algae that is incredibly nutrient-dense. It is brimming with essential nutrients such as vitamins (including vitamin C, B vitamins, and vitamin K), minerals (including iron, magnesium, and zinc), proteins, and omega-3 fatty acids. It also contains chlorophyll, which gives it its vibrant green colour.
Cacao – Cacao is derived from the beans of the Theobroma cacao tree and is the main ingredient used to produce chocolate. It is rich in fibre, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals and can be used as a superfood supplement in smoothies, desserts, or beverages.
Cod Liver Oil – Derived from the liver of cod fish. It has been consumed for centuries due to its high content of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A and D, and other beneficial compounds. Supplementation has been shown to help with cardiovascular health, joint pain, arthritis, brain health, and cognitive function.
Goji Berry – Also known as wolfberry, is a small red berry that comes from the Lycium barbarum plant, native to Asia. Goji berries pack quite the nutritional punch and are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. They are available in various forms, including dried berries, powder, and capsules.
Hemp Seeds – These are a good source of plant-based protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other nutrients. Hemp seed supplements are available in various forms, including whole seeds, protein powders, and oils.
Wheatgrass - Derived from the young shoots of wheat plants, wheatgrass is commonly consumed as a juice or powder. It is believed to be rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Maca – Maca is a root vegetable native to Peru and is available as a powder or capsule. It is known for balancing hormones, boosting energy and stamina, and improving sexual function and fertility.
Medicinal Mushrooms – These fungi have been used in traditional medicine systems, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda, for centuries. Medicinal mushrooms offer robust therapeutic properties, including adaptogenic, immune modulation, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, cognitive boosting, and stimulating properties. Some of the most popular medicinal mushrooms include Reishi, Chaga, Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, Shiitake, and Turkey Tail.
Matcha Green Tea – Matcha is sold as powdered green tea made from ground tea leaves. It is known for its high antioxidant content and is often consumed as a hot beverage or added to smoothies, though it is also available in capsule form.

Who Needs Whole Food Supplements?
A quality food supplement may be recommended to address an individual's specific nutrient deficiencies, support overall health and wellness, promote certain bodily functions, and/or enhance physical and mental performance. In addition, food supplements may be recommended to bolster immune function, improve joint health, boost energy and stamina, and aid in weight loss.
It’s important to note that food/superfood supplements are classified as « food » rather than « dietary supplements,» so they likely have far fewer indications or less extensive "recommended uses" than other supplements on the market because they are regulated differently by Health Canada.
Trustworthy Brands For Your Food Supplement Needs
Selecting the right food supplement for you is a personal decision that should be based on your specific health status, needs and goals. Look for supplements from reputable brands that adhere to strict quality control standards and do third-party testing for full transparency. Some of the most trusted food supplement brands available in Canada include:
- AOR
- A Vogel
- Beekeeper’s Naturals
- Botanica
- CanPrev
- Ecoideas
- Flora
- Garden Of Life
- Host Defence
- MegaFood
- Natural Factors
- Progressive Nutritional
