Posted by Nolan Dalla on Jan 21, in Blog , Essays , Politics 0 comments Could two-thirds of the products sold in stores like this be completely worthless? Of the more than 54, dietary supplement products…. Worse still, many these bottled toxins are dangerous. Some can even be deadly. Most of us take supplements with the best of intentions. If you consume some of the items being sold in health food stores, on the shelves at your local pharmacy, or from gigantic medicine and drug sections at the discount warehouses, you might be doing more harm than good. Recall that more than a century ago, unscrupulous scammers typically rolled into small towns. The set up a pitch and promised the townspeople miracle cures. These companies have also hired some of the most powerful lobbyists in the country to avoid regulation and oversight. The closer we look, the more disturbing the picture that emerges. Such a strong statement might seem like an exaggeration. Factories are inspected regularly right? Ingredients are thoroughly tested right? Product labels and advertisements are carefully scrutinized right? Ready for the shocker? Like most people, I just assumed all the dietary supplements and vitamins with sophisticated packaging and labeling sold just about everywhere are perfectly safe for us to take. I presumed all the contents had been rigorously tested and were certified for consumer use. I also believed government agencies like the Food and Drug Administration FDA exercised total legal oversight over manufacturers and had tested the claims made by marketeers before they were sold to the general public. The closest the industry has ever came to being regulated by the FDA was 15 years ago. Efforts to clean up this filthy and fraudulent industry collapsed. Consumer Report s, which is about as unbiased a source as exists when it assessing the safety and quality of products, gave this polluted industry a scathing assessment recently. According to CR , more than 54, products exist on the market which are classified as dietary supplements and vitamins. So, two-thirds are junk. One-tenth could be dangerous. These percentages should make us shudder. There should be a massive government-led initiative on this to clean this up. Consider some evidence from that report. However, the Frontline report investigated the owners of this company, which includes a husband and wife, which started out as a home business. Neither of them had any training nor education in anything relating to heath and nutrition, other than the husband works as a chiropractor. It looks like a run-down industrial zone, about as controlled as a garage. The bottom line is without government oversight this is what happens. I urge you to watch the entire minute episode of Frontline. I have no training nor background in this subject matter. But, I do have an innate curiosity as to why we continue to allow such widespread fraud. Want to learn more about how the vitamins you buy might be doing serious long-term damage? Read this before you step into your local supermarket and head for the section where supplements are sold. At best, many of the products inside your medicine cabinet could be completely worthless. At worst, they could be dangerous. What you refuse to buy and end up throwing away could end up saving your life. Finally I urge readers to get more active politically and stand up to many of these hoaxers who are making huge profits and selling what amounts to snake oil. We need to see this dirty industry cleaned up and federally regulated. Your email address will not be published. Notify me of new posts by email.
