Should be interesting if the supplements are ever named that test positive. I know of at least one I believe to be named in there, based on past business relationships and posts on other boards...should be interesting to say the least.

And what's up with USA Today's hard on for the sup industry these days?

All I got from that was international canoe federation. And I'll throw a word out there for you again: San.

Hey, when you're on a roll, you're on a roll.

Anyhoot, feels like stockpiling season. Some Erase here, some Dexaprine there, a little more Muscle Marinade deadstock here, and a little more Mesomorph deadstock there. We're good to go!

The sad thing is that people who aren't as knowledgeable about the industry may hear these stories and it will give supplements a bad name when in reality there are great supplements and companies out there who are very legit and trustworthy. I'd hate to see the bad ruin it for the good.

Almost no way to avoid it at this point

Unfortunately that's what its probably going to come down to

Sadly with the state of the government and organizations needing reasons to get a higher piece of the budget...the supplement industry has become a prime target for the FDA to target and say "Hey look what we did! We saved the citizens from these poisons!"

I'd argue what we are more so seeing is the result of an industry going unchecked and now being cracked down on hard in order to enforce laws and regulations that the FDA has be lax on. Companies are doing this to their own industry by introducing more and more "novel" ingredients that prove to be illegal.

If supplement companies can't play by the rules, then I fully support the FDA regulating the supplement industry. Neg away

Agreed. We are seeing what happens when the industry goes unchecked. Maybe this cracking down will signal a new era of honesty? Or at least more then we have now.

Will be interesting to see what and how many companies start to "reformulate" products.

"Hey look what we did! We saved the citizens from these poisons!"

There is no saving you from me.

[afi140]

agreed..ish. Hate the FDA. Hate big government. Hate shady supplement companies. Love my health and life. What a predicament! There are a FEW reliable companies but it's sad these days. Basics and controlled labs is where my home base is.

[xLGx]

I'm kinda sad Alison didn't tell me she was putting out a story about Acacia when we were together last night

Actually agree with this as well, but I do want to hear some opposing viewpoints on this matter

Based on the article I read and a few others the FDA is taking its time to do anything about regulating these things. Seems like they only care when someone dies but with everything else they but it on the back burner. Money probably has to be a big motivational tool here.

[TMac26]

This is certainly interesting.

[demonwareltd]

Regulation=greater costs=everyone loses

[JDomin0]

Interesting. Definitely some shady stuff goin on.

[HeavenBeyond]

No offense, but this is probably the stupid thing I've read all week.

I'll take a higher price tag over risking my health any day. I'm sure most would agree.

Yes, I think you are right. The supplement industry is huge.

[klaximilian]

Hmmm...I went through a bottle of OEP last summer. Am I gonna die?

No, not srs.

[fellfromthesun]

Nooooooo

Dexaprine is a staple to me mostly because of the acacia extract. I've already run three bottles of v2 and nothing bad has happened so far. I'll be following this.

And every single supplement company out there would disagree with you.
