The FDA does not approve supplements, (so beware of any brand or supplement claiming to be), however, despite what some may claim - the FDA does have regulatory guidance for the nutritional supplement industry. They regulate the ingredients, the “final product”, and all claims that a manufacturer makes on the label under a rule known as the “Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act” (aka “DSHEA”). They also perform inspections within manufacturing facilities, in order for brands to obtain “Good Manufacturing Practices” status. At Integrative, we are one of only a few companies who manufacture both supplements, and OTC medicines, which dictates our status as a “Drug Good Manufacturing Practices” audited facility. A rare attribute of excellence within the industry.
