Rules and regulationsUpdated 6 months ago

Herbal (Dietary) Supplements fall under several federal agencies jurisdiction and are subject to various rules and regulations to ensure their safety, quality, and prevent mislabeling or egregious claims. It is the FDA that primarily oversees the industry through post-market surveillance, monitoring safety, and taking action against products that are found to be misbranded. Please keep in mind:

• An herbal supplement is not a drug. A product intended to treat, prevent, cure, or alleviate the symptoms of a disease is a drug, and subject to all requirements that apply to drugs. It is illegal to represent (explicitly or implicitly) that any herbal supplement can treat, prevent, or cure a specific disease or class of diseases. 

• FDA has the authority to take action against any adulterated or misbranded dietary supplement product after it reaches the market.

• We will not provide medical advice or claim our product should be used in a place of any medication. Customers need to be directed to their primary physicians for this guidance.
