Medicines which have been purified and demonstrated to be at least somewhat effective currently must undergo years of testing and development, before they are permitted on the market, and then frequently must be sold by presription only for decades.

Quackery made popular by urban legend and paranoia is sold unregulated until enough hundreds of people die that regulation is implemented to stem lawsuits.

This is sane?

DSHEA rights = snake oil.

Herbal remedies have been used - SAFELY - for a few thousand more years than prescriptions.

until enough hundreds of people die that regulation is implemented to stem lawsuits.

Umm, the same can be said for pharmaceuticals.
