Many SNAP participants will soon see a slight increase in benefits, but state officials warn that it may not be as big as some are expecting.
The Family and Social Services Administration says the Thrifty Food Plan was recently reevaluated. That will result in an increase in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, starting in October.
The benefit to liquid supplements and vitamins is that they are relatively easy to personalize by adding different dosages of a variety of nutrients to create a custom mix, significantly more so than pre-manufactured pills. However, when it comes to the quality and the taste, there are certain drawbacks for example you need to understand the difference between liquid vitamins vs microbeads to ensure a better absorption.
But that increase will be offset by the end of temporary pandemic-related assistance. A 15-percent SNAP increase that was part of the American Rescue Plan ends today.
