America Needs Supplement Safety Now
Now is time to ensure the safety of all nutritional supplement products.
Americans everyday are endangering their health without knowing it because a number of rogue supplement manufacturers motivated uniquely by profit are selling over-the-counter supplements containing dangerous drugs such as designer steroids and marketing the products as "legal and safe."
The current regulatory framework does not require supplement companies to prove that their products are safe and effective prior to going to market, and as a result, Americans are consuming dangerous drugs without knowing it. It is widely known that the consumption of drugs like designer steroids poses grave health threats and has been a known cause of liver injury, stroke, kidney failure and pulmonary embolism.
I urge you to work with your colleagues in Congress to establish a regulatory framework that ensures all supplements sold over-the-counter, in retail stores and online, are safe and effective. And, that the federal agencies regulating this industry have the tools to effectively protect consumers’ health.
Please act now to ensure the safety of supplements.
