All they're doing is trying to get approval for use of "supplements" which are basically untested, unregulated drugs of natural origins. I wish the US would think about having supplements checked for safety. People have lost money, gotten sick, suffer permanent damage, and sometimes die from "natural supplements".
Nobody wants to close down pharmacies, eradicate vitamins, or prevent people from using [safe] herbal remedies. |
All natural supplements have been tested; the question is, tested by
