Regulations

FDA needs to be expanded and regulate the vitamin and supplement market.

I agree with ever fiber of my being. I know the flip side of this would be that it would kill the supplement market, but since I hear their advertising all hours of the day, I can honestly say the entire industry needs to go the way of the dodo.

Agreed, 110%. Of course, this would bring Jill Stein supporters out of the woodwork for elections, but I’ll suffer through that in exchange for less snake oil being on the market.

Which is why it’s probably never going to happen. Can you imagine the lobbying dollars that would draw?

That’s actually what baffles me. Drug manufacturers go through a long and expensive process of trials and getting approval. Supplement makers are required to do jack. You would thing drug companies would be pressing the FDA to extend its umbrella.

Instead of doing that, they just started making supplements. Basically free money.
