Executive Summary
DIETARY SUPPLEMENT "TRUTHFUL, NONMISLEADING" CLAIMS STANDARD URGED by Traco Labs in June 10 comments to FDA. Describing the agency's April 29 proposal on structure/function claims as "seriously flawed and ill conceived," Traco asserts "it is essential that the necessary steps be taken to unwind the maze of regulations promulgated" under the Nutrition Labeling & Education Act and the Dietary Supplement Health & Education Act and "replace them with the simple and clear standard of `truthful and nonmisleading' for claims made on behalf of dietary supplements."
