Everyone should know that, according to the Food & Drug Administration:
"Presently, the manufacturer bears the sole responsibility for ensuring that its products "contain the ingredients listed on the label" and that the product is "safe for use in a dietary supplement." Dietary supplement manufacturers are not inspected by the FDA nor are they under any current obligation to conform to good manufacturing practices. Indeed, DSHEA "places the burden on FDA to prove that a product presents a significant or unreasonable risk of illness or injury under the label’s conditions of use before it can be removed form the marketplace."
