I often see the following on labels, “These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” Why is this product not evaluated by the Government?
Under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), this disclaimer must be displayed on the product label because current laws do not require the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to evaluate the efficacy of specific dietary supplements.
