Supplement Makers Ignore the FDA and Health Risks!

I recently reported that many dietary supplements included dangerous and unapproved compounds, in varying and sometimes dangerous concentrations. 

These included anabolic steroids, Prozac and Viagra. Some have been associated with fatal liver disease.

In response to the earlier report the FDA recalled many of the supplements.

In this follow up study, researchers found that 27 products recalled between 2009 and 2012 still contained the substances that were banned by the FDA. And 20% of these products contained an additional banned product.

The FDA needs more teeth to enforce their rules. And all of us have to continue to be more careful about using supplements. As you know I am against virtually all of these.
