    Possible Tax deduction?

    If I am purchasing supplements, I know they are not tax deductible under normal circumstances, but if I am providing them to a client at a cost or at no cost would that be a deductible expense?

    You should talk to your tax preparer. The costs should be deductible as a business expense for supplements for your clients (likely not for your personal use). If you're charging your clients for them, the income you make would also be taxable.

    This would most likely fall under the Meals and Entertainment category of business expenses, which as of the new tax law would be 50% deductible. As CRAT0S alluded to, you would need to record any income received from the client if they paid you anything for the supplements.
