In early February, health conscious Americans began to hear of a frightening piece of legislation, introduced by Sen. John McCain, that would threaten access to dietary and health supplements many Americans depend on.
Referred to as the "Dietary Supplement Safety Act", DSSA (S. 3002), this legislation would repeal key protections in the 1994 Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA), which stated that nutrients are food and, as food, you can have them in any form - and any amount - you like. If successful, McCain's bill would give the FDA sweeping new powers to regulate the vitamin and supplement industry.
