ANYONE can sell non-FDA approved supplements these days. I could have become a millionaire myself, as I have been invited to "sell" or be the spokesperson on behalf of companies that produce these products. I never did. Why? Non-FDA approved products "may" work to a certain extent but their potential side effects are not studied by the same standards as FDA approved medications. Even when FDA approved, we sometimes find medication side effects that we did not anticipate over time.
As the Jack-of-all-Trades and trained in pharmacology in my past life as a researcher, I have much respect for anything that is brought into the body, whether it’s water, food, medication, vitamins, herbs or potions of any kind.
Dr. Gaby, FDA approved drugs kill people. The number of mortalities attributed to pharmaceutical drugs is 1,00,000 times that attributed to supplements, and that being generous since I have not seen a single mortality attributed to supplements, so why the concern about supplements? It's a farce. Of course one should be knowledgeable about what is put in the body. As for research on drugs it is usually done by the drug company where with compounds that no one has a monopoly on we find volumes of research done by multiple entities.
