What pisses me off about supplements is the crap that some manufacturers will pass off with no penalty for it. Take protein powders. Some will claim that they give you 24 grams per serving. A place I used to go to would send product out to a 3rd party lab. If you came within 90% of the claimed levels he would carry the brand. If the brand failed then he would tell you that you could still buy it from GNC.

It's for the individual to do his own research, and make his own decisions accordingly. Or else your being pissed off about supplements is going to have an impact on *MY* access to the supplements *I* take. In addition, if the Feds get their hands on vitamins, the prices will rise, and big pharma will enter the picture.

No, thanks.

There is labeling on most food that we buy. I really doubt that it is free of this same problem, and it would not surprise me if it is less accurate.
