The latest evidence from the actions of a pharma company should give one pause. There is a legitimate danger ahead and we need to be more than naïve about the future. If you think restrictions on weight loss claims would be bad -- what about restrictions on CALCIUM claims?

This last is a series of three spews about words and the impact they have on our industry points to some other definitional issues we, as an industry, would have if we were paying attention.

This is the first of a new series that talks about words and how their use affects this industry and what we should be aware of as an industry going forward. That is -- before the words we can use are chosen for us.

Guess what? The Final Rule on Dietary Supplement GMPs just went out in pre-publication form. Now what? First there is reading and digestion of what has come out -- followed by discussion and mutual learning as we go forward. In the MEANTIME though -- like a book jacket -- here's the first thoughts on the matter. See you at the beach with your copy of the Federal Register Notice on our laps.

I suppose it's an annual event with me but here it is Spring and the matter of Claims for Dietary Supplements has come back to my focus. As the industry gathers once more for a confab -- maybe someone ought to think a bit about what is going on with Claims Structures in the United States and thnk further about what the industry can DO about it.
