摘要：The aim of this study was to verify the consumption of dietary supplements by gymgoers. To this end, 430 practitioners of physical activities of both genders, aged between 18 and 79 years old, attending all gyms in a municipality in Minas Gerais, participated. Data collection took place through the application of standardized questionnaires. Data tabulation was performed with Epi Info 7.2 and for data analysis the programs Excel 2010 and BioEstat 5.3 were used. It was found that 50.93% of practitioners used nutritional supplements, predominantly consumption among men (66.21%). Among users, 80.37% said they knew about food supplements. The most used supplements among men were those rich in proteins (59.62%) and creatine (35.68%) and among women were proteins (25.81%) and natural herbal medicines (13.36%). The majority (70%) of practitioners reported consuming supplements without guidance from a specialized professional. It is concluded that the consumption of food supplements is high, without adequate professional guidance, by gymgoers. Therefore, we see as essential the role of nutritionists in gyms, working together with Physical Education professionals, as they are qualified to prescribe and monitor the use of supplements, thus making their consumption effective and safe for practitioners of physical activity.
