Do you like energy drinks? ( Archived) (32)

Widespread use of these products is indicative of addictive personality and a reason the FDA and HCA want to regulate nutritional supplements as drugs... HCA has already restricted/ banned many and the FDA is not far behind.



Sadly, abusive combinations of crap food, additives, drinks, and diet aids will likely remain while our access to individual supplements I know are most useful are further limited.

Currently the problem with the FDA’s draft guidance on New Dietary Ingredients is that it allows FDA to arbitrarily deny the sale of any supplement created (or modified) in the past seventeen years. If you’re a supplement manufacturer or distributor or possibly even a health food store, and you don’t file a NDI “notification” (actually a request for approval) for each ingredient in each product developed since 1994 in just the way prescribed by the FDA, and the court later decides the FDA is right, then you are guilty of product “adulteration,” which is punishable by prison. With your favorite supplements off the market, it also would allow the drug industry to adapt and patent them, and sell them back to you—by doctor’s prescription only—for 10 or 100 (or even more) times what you’re paying now.
