MAKHACHKALA, November 3 – RIA Dagestan. Moscow leads the ranking of Russian regions in dietary supplement consumption, while the regions of the Northern Caucasus, including Dagestan, are among the lowest consumers. These figures were presented by experts who analyzed the sales of dietary supplement packages per 10,000 residents for the period from January to September 2026.
According to the study, 43.8 million packages of dietary supplements were sold across the country during this period, representing a 25.6% increase compared to the same period in 2025.
The list of regions with the lowest dietary supplement consumption includes Chechnya, Ingushetia, Dagestan, Kabardino-Balkaria and Karachay-Cherkessia. Specialists note that the low rates in these republics may be linked to traditional health-related customs, as well as the income levels of the local population.
