1. General Comments
|
The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 improved consumer access to dietary supplements and infomation about them, while increasing consumer protection against unsafe products and false and misleading claims. The FDA has only begun to initiate aggressive enforcement actions under DSHEA, yet is calling for suggestions for increased legislative authority in oder to better regulate the supplement industry. Please give them a chance to work before calling for new laws. I support and agree with Dr. Henney, the former FDA comminssioner that DSHEA provide FDA with the necessary legal authority to protect the public health. I support DSHEA and we need no further authority.
Sincerely,
KRistine Bahr, Nutritionist
