Subject: Operation Supplement Safety (OPSS) Town Hall
Good Afternoon,
To ALCON,
Building Healthy Military Communities (BHMC) is partnering with Uniformed Services University (USU), supported by Military OneSource to offer a valuable Town Hall on a trending harmful issue around dietary supplement.
"Operation Supplement Safety (OPSS) is a DoD-wide initiative designed to educate Military Service Members and retirees, their family members, leaders, healthcare providers, and DoD civilians about dietary supplements so they can make informed choices. Many Military Service Members use dietary supplements often to build muscle, lose weight, increase energy, or enhance sexual performance, yet they are unaware of the potential health risks and consequences. Therefore, based on the best evidence-based information about dietary supplements, OPSS endeavors to provide education on how to choose safe dietary supplements for Military Service Members, their families, healthcare providers, and leaders to achieve human performance optimization."
The Agenda:
1.) Military One Source (MOS) Spotlight: Ms. Blenda Gann who is our amazing Military One Source (MOS) representative here in MS, she will brief on this subject and what MOS has to offer. She is cc'd on this email for her contact information.
2.) Operation Supplement Safety (OPSS): Ms. Andrea Lindsey from Uniformed Service University will be our guest speaker; she is cc'd on this email if you would like her to brief your branch of service/unit/etc.
This event will be held on Thursday, April 1, 2021 beginning at 2:00 PM CST. To begin registration see the attached flyer and the OPSS flyer for more details. You will receive the meeting link prior to the meeting.
Please share this information so that other Service Members and families can be equipped with this valuable information. Should you have further questions please connect with me at your earliest convenience.
Leadership support is needed to spread the word on supplement safety and to help prevent adverse side effects.
Thank you,
