If the label on a dietary supplement says it can do something good for you, can you believe it? An investigation by the Office of the Inspector General in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says the answer is not necessarily. The IG’s office bought a sample of 127 supplements, and checked the accuracy of the claims.
The investigators noted that the Food and Drug Administration wants supplement companies to have solid evidence that the supplements do what they claim they do.
