Supp question

[frackus88]

How come a lot of sport supplements aren't run though the FDA? I have seen that on a lot of bottles n' such. I'm just curious as to why that is.

Are you saying you've seen it on bottles etc that they HAVE NOT been run through the FDA?

 

[Fella Finn]

Do you have any examples to give?

lol welcome to the good ole USA. because the FDA is underfunded. 80% of supplements are not even checked that is a fact. if you do get caught you get pinched with a recall which could bankrupt your company, but they know their chances of getting caught are slim. so TRUST YOUR BRAND. n2bm is A+

They choose not to, and take that chance.

Theoretically they are, but the FDA doesn't have the funding to check every single supplement. That's why you need to look for the 3rd party laboratory verification.

With all the supplements and companies out there it would be an endless impossible task
