...vitamin D, and the multitude of other "supplements" available are NOT REGISTERED PHARMACEUTICALS. They are REQUIRED BY LAW to be labeled with a DISCLAIMER--"This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease."

Spend the time/money, do the proper research (in accordance with approved testing protocols), and submit the data for both safety and efficacy. Supplements are just another way to "short-cut" the system--that's why they are cheap--compared to "real" pharmaceuticals. They should just say "take at your own risk".

I can whip up a batch of "snake oil" made from horseshit and lawn clippings and sell it as a "supplement"--as long as it doesn't immediately harm/kill a bunch of people. Even then, it becomes a civil "wrongful death" suit--not a criminal offense, unless it can be proven that I KNOWINGLY poisoned the general public. The supplement industry/market thrives on unsubstantiated claims, and hides behind the disclosure statement I quoted above. Credibility costs money--period--and no one is willing to pay for it.
