The Supplement Industry, Covered
FDA regulation, product recalls, ingredient research, and consumer safety — independent reporting on a $63 billion industry that touches 80% of American adults.
More than 80% of American adults take at least one dietary supplement. The industry generates over $63 billion a year in the U.S. alone and is growing at 6% annually. Yet most consumers know almost nothing about how this industry is regulated — or how poorly.
Supplement News covers the business, science, and regulation behind the products on your shelf. We track FDA enforcement actions, DSHEA policy developments, clinical research on popular ingredients, and product recalls that rarely make mainstream headlines.
This isn't a supplement review site (for that, visit The Supplement Guide). This is journalism about the supplement industry itself — for consumers who want to understand the system behind the products.
