SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The mission of the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) is to strengthen knowledge and understanding of dietary supplements by evaluating scientific information, stimulating and supporting research, disseminating research results, and educating the public to foster an enhanced quality of life and health for the U.S. population. The ODS was established in the Office of the Director, NIH, in 1995 as a major provision of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA). A key early activity was the development of the Strategic Plan for 1998–2003 to set out goals for program development. The Strategic Plan was prepared with considerable input from NIH Institutes and Centers, other Federal Agencies, consumers, and other interested parties. The original five-year plan was revised for 2004–2009. The five strategic goals for ODS have been: 1. Expand the evaluation of the role of dietary supplements in disease prevention and in reduction of risk factors associated with disease. 2. Foster research that evaluates the role of dietary supplements in maintaining and improving optimal E:\FR\FM\24NON1.SGM 24NON1
