Do YOU know where your supplements come from? Most people do not, although the buzz is out and consumers are taking notice of where the products they buy are coming from.

Newspapers and radio shows everywhere have been broadcasting stories, particularly over the past couple of years, about common products they all use which are tainted with toxic chemicals. Products like pet foods, animal feed, produce, toys, plastics, and yes... supplements. Most all the products that were recalled had something in common - they came from Asia. Perhaps they were made with materials which are imported and contained a toxic chemical called melamine. Both melamine and lead have been blamed in more than several deaths and illnesses here in the US.

There are ways consumers can protect themselves and have confidence in what they buy. This begins with reading the ingredient labels and/or the Supplement Facts Box. Luckily, the FDA has already put into place regulatory procedures that food and drug companies need to comply with. Last month, the FDA held a conference with top supplement trade associations to discuss how to handle enforcement ...
... of these regulations. Along with tighter control and enforcement of standards comes the need for consumer education, retailer's responsibility, certification and association memberships.
