Ephedra And Other Dietary Supplements Are Regulated By The Government

In 1994, the United States Congress passed the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA), which amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDC Act). DSHEA gave the FDA substantial new policing authority to stop the distribution of unsafe dietary supplements. Widely repeated assertions that dietary supplements are unregulated are simply incorrect ‚ extensive requirements regulating product quality and product claims are in effect, and industry supports vigorous enforcement of these requirements.
