Synopsis
The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994’s (DSHEA) requirement for supplement manufacturers to establish GMPs (good manufacturing practices) took the supplement industry from a loosely regulatory industry to one with complex rules for product safety and quality, according to Robin Koon, executive vice president of sales and marketing, Best Formulations. Yet, Koon, a man who works with the law every day, added, the law could have been improved by better defining vague terms and requiring independent testing. In this podcast with Sandy Almendarez, editor in chief, INSIDER, Koon discusses DSHEA in honor of its 25th anniversary.
