For example, "Federal law does not require dietary supplements to be proven safe to FDA's satisfaction before they are marketed". You would think something so easily accessible would come with regulations and FDA approval, but this is not the case.

I believe the variety of supplements and their uses. While, I did understand that not all supplements may be regulated to the fullest extent, I was surprised to read that "Dietary supplement manufacturers do not have to get the agency's approval before producing or selling these products" (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 2015).

I also found it extremely surprising that, "The law does not require the manufacturer or seller to prove to FDA's satisfaction that the claim is accurate or truthful before it appears on the product." This is information that I was not aware of before reading this article and is definitely something I will be more cautious of moving forward.

One surprising fact from the article is that "some supplements can have unwanted effects before, during, or after surgery" because of their affects on bleeding/clotting and medication. Another surprising fact is that "Federal law does not require dietary supplements to be proven safe to FDA's satisfaction before they are marketed," which sounds like it could be very alarming, especially in a world almost governed by "big pharma." In my opinion, there should be some standards of how supplements are labeled, so consumers can be well informed of what they are buying and consuming.]]> 2021-02-24 07:36:37 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1235032288 FDA 101 aechen https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1237334373 I found that "the use of folic acid supplements by women of childbearing age who may become pregnant reduces the risk of some birth defects" captured my attention the most.

They also don't have to get FDA approval before being sold and some have been found to have microbiological, pesticide, and heavy metal contamination, the absence of a dietary ingredient claimed to be in the product, and the presence of more or less than the amount of the dietary ingredient claimed on the label.

I believe the majority of people continue to be unaware of the potential side affects that supplements can have on their health.

Therefore, it is important to be cautious when taking these supplements because there are cons to taking them. On the other hand, I think there are some health benefits in terms of reducing risk of some diseases. Additionally, the use of multi-vitamins is common and don't lead to sickness. Overall, it is not a terrible thing to dietary supplements, but it is important to talk with a health professional to see whether they are safe to take or not. ]]> 2021-03-02 18:30:51 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1260012376 Dietary Supplements bklonows https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1261130662 This article was very interesting and I've actually been hearing more about cautious supplement consumption.

I have family members that subscribe to this type of thinking and it drives me crazy to no end. I once asked my aunt if she takes dihydrogen monoxide (water) and she said that she doesn't put those chemicals into her body.

Some of the reasonings included that the supplement contained pesticides or heavy metals. It was shocking to me that these were able to be released in the first place considering how dangerous pesticides and metals can be if consumed.

I think this is crazy because I always believed that the FDA existed to keep us safe from harmful things, yet there have been so many recalls on dietary supplements, which could have been avoided if the supplements were proven safe to begin with. appatino1 https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1279463266 2021-03-07 21:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1279463266 Supplements japastor1 https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1279597781 I was really surprised to find out that supplements do not need to be approved by the FDA for safety under Federal Law. Apparently, the FDA can only monitor the safety of the product after the supplement is out in the marketplace. You'd think that supplements ought to be approved before they are released to the public, otherwise the consumers are like guinea pigs being tested to see if there are any harmful effects.

This was the most interesting thing I learned while reading the article. Not only does this remind me of many informercials as a child promoting miracle cures, but how they could get away with it. The FDA doesn't regulate supplements until after they are sold in the marketplace, hence why there have been recalls on certain drugs such as Golden Nutrition, that made false health claims.

I think it's common for a lot of people to randomly use supplements and most often they don't even really need them to begin with.
Another interesting fact about dietary supplements is how little the FDA regulates them, and people tend to know very little about what they are taking. I feel that this can either make some valuable supplements less credible and others to be a little too credible. Because I have used many that helped my body ( working with my doctor) for example she gave me magnesium and a cortisol stabilizer that helped my sleep issues. On the contrary, I have seen a ton on the market that I believe would to be false promises and health professionals probably wouldn't advise. ]]> 2021-03-08 19:09:45 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1283984444 Supplements https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1284224053 2021-03-08 19:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1284224053 Supplements csmarch https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1284226488 The most interesting thing that I read in the article was that dietary supplements do not have to be approved by the FDA to be put on the shelves.

Sure they can have placebo effects, but one in particular that I take on a daily basis is Glucoseamine for cartilage and joints. Even though these are not FDA regulated, there are plenty of studies on the internet that are available for everyone to read.

I never thought about the fact that taking them could cause implications to surgery such as increasing the affects of anesthetics during surgery. This definately something to keep in mind before you have a surgery done.]]> 2021-03-10 02:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290882366 Dietary Supplements ajtayl25 https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290906359 I had already known that dietary and herbal supplements were not intended to treat or cure diseases and illness. But, what I had found most interesting and shocking is that it is not required by the FDA to prove the safety of these supplements before they are marketed to the public. Rather, the supplement needs to have a label denoting that it is for some dietary purpose. It blew my mind that the FDA gets involved after the supplement hits the market and is available for consumers. This seems background and rather unsafe for the public.]]> 2021-03-10 02:57:02 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290906359 Dietary Supplements immarti7 https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290906584 The most surprising fact I read was that manufacturers do not have to prove to the FDA that the supplement are safe before putting it on the market for consumers to use. It would be nice to know the risk or side effects of a supplement before I use one. Also, it is interesting that garlic could increase bleeding before or after surgery. ]]> 2021-03-10 02:57:07 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290906584 Dietary Supplements hfinney https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290912877 The most interesting/surprising fact I read from the FDA 101: dietary supplements was how there can be many different benefits to taking supplements but if used in the wrong way there could be some risk factors.

That is usually the agency's first opportunity to take action against a product that presents a significant or unreasonable risk of illness or injury, or that is otherwise adulterated or misbranded." I found this extremely interesting because it allows people to be harmed due to misinformation and negligence to their health and safety. Action only takes place after the product is sold which does not provide any safety to people who have taken the dietary supplement before the FDA becomes involved. ]]> 2021-03-10 03:20:32 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290961194 Supplementation in the Diet dlveater https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1290961930 It's intriguing to learn that dietary supplements can't be mixed and matched.

Dietary supplements are a long and vague category of things people can buy to improve a certain part of their health. There are dietary supplements for nearly every single part of the human body workings that can be improved. One thing I did not know is that not all dietary supplements are safe, such as supplements used to improve muscle and other aspects of the physique. Some supplements that are sold in the store are not 100% what they say they are and many athletes have failed drug tests or performance enhancing drug tests due to the non accuracy in some supplements sold in the store. I think dietary supplements are good to a certain extent, but at some point it is better just to let the natural body do it’s thing.

This is crazy to me because many people rely on supplements and do not know what is in them. It leads me to question how much good is actually in them and whether or not they are actually as beneficial as promoted. ]]> 2021-03-10 04:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291138056 Dietary Supplements jtbaer1 https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291172953 The most interesting thing I read was that the FDA does not have to approve these dietary supplements in order for them to be sold, which means that there can be literally anything in the supplements we take and we would never know unless it is otherwise third party tested.

The FDA only gets involved if there are major issues reported by people taking the supplements. That means that taking a supplement that is new to the market could be more harmful than helpful, and the people taking them might be guinea pigs for the safety of that product. ]]> 2021-03-10 05:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291195315 Dietary Supplements dquema https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291220232 What I found most interesting from this article was that these dietary supplements don't need to approved by the FDA in order to be sold.

The amount of people I know that take a wide array of supplements is rather large. Not that I know for a fact, but those that I know more personally, I would say do not consult with their doctors prior to consuming these supplements. As a matter of fact, I myself, back fresh out of high school, took quite a few supplements without consulting my doctor prior to starting them. Hindsight 20/20, I'd say I should have due to some side effects I experienced. ]]> 2021-03-10 05:15:30 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291232583 Dietary supplements dlararui https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291284227 The most interesting thing that I read from FDA 101: Dietary Supplements, was that dietary supplements also include amino acid products. I recently started taking a pre-workout before going to the gym everyday that has the words "amino acid" written in big fonts on the container. I never realized that pre-workout was considered a dietary supplement. After reading the article, it made complete sense. I also found it really interesting that manufacturers are allowed to label their products however they want for marketing purposes even if the claims are false. ]]> 2021-03-10 05:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291284227 Dietary supplements ceflood https://padlet.com/shuwang10/c3lhc0le6bhrnicr/wish/1291400424 I was surprised to see the reasons as to why Dietary supplements might get recalled.
