Can I deduct the cost of vitamins, nutrition supplements, and alternative therapies from my Income Tax if...? ...I am a professional speaker on the topic? I advocate the use of these lifestyles, therapies, and products for health, wellness, and slowing the aging process. I definitely practice what I preach. I use/do everything I recommend in my speeches. I am in my mid-50s and look (and act) much younger. I know that I am a walking promotion for my speaking business and that my appearance and behavior validates my expertise/opinions in the audience's eyes. Therefore, I have to believe that my personal use of vitamins, supplements, and other alternative therapies should fall under the category of a business expense and be tax deductible. I am told by colleagues that this is "probably" true, but no one can give me any hard data to back up that claim. If you agree (or disagree), can you give me the references I would need and could use if the tax deductions are ever challenged by the IRS. Thank you for you help.
