FDA Moves To Ensure Safety of Supplements - washingtonpost.com
Finally the FDA is going to start regulating the content of dietary supplements. However, we are still a ways away from the FDA ensuring that supplements are safe and effective.
Yesterday I saw at Costco a huge palette of "Coenzyme Q" for sale. I snapped some comment to Naomi about how I dislike the supplement industry, although I am not sure why and she did not totally understand. I think it may be that it drives the pill-popping mindset, distracting people from the common sense of just eating a good diet. I even have friends in medical school who are vegetarian and eat very well and who still pop 1000s of units of vitamins each week, even though they know most of it will go down the toilet.
