The Surge of Anti-Sudden Death Supplement Packages

There is a growing trend among young Chinese professionals to take anti-sudden death supplement packages, inspired by South Korean culture. These packages include various dietary supplements such as fish oil, magnesium, and vitamins. Many believe that these supplements help them maintain a fast-paced lifestyle, combat sedentary office routines, and improve their physical and mental well-being. However, medical experts argue that the term 'anti-sudden death' is misleading and that these supplements do not possess clinical properties for treatment or prevention.
