New legislation in the U.S. Senate would mandate that every dietary supplement would have to go through a brand new process of government review in order to stay on the market.
If this bill, S. 3002, the Dietary Supplement Safety Act, becomes law your health care choices will be drastically reduced, and many of the supplements available today will become illegal. This and other provisions of this misguided legislation affect ALL dietary supplements, including vitamins, minerals, herbs, sports, and diet products.
Even though the bill’s original sponsors, Sens. John McCain and Byron Dorgan, reportedly have backed away from their legislation, we need to keep up the pressure to dissuade other Members of Congress from taking up the bill.
