As I continue down the winding path of my diet herbalife program investigation, some information came to light that was of interest and even gave me still more confidence in my program.

Any product that is meant to be added to a meal for enhancement of nutrition can be called a dietary supplement.  But, by definition in the United States, under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), a substance qualifies as a dietary supplement when it contains an herb or botanical nutrients, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, concentrates, extracts, constituents, metabolites or any combination of the herein mentioned.  Presently, some hormones and steroids are also marketed in the US as dietary supplements.

As of June, 2010, through the responsibility given by the DSHEA to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), all producers and manufacturers of dietary supplements, including herbalife supplements, are required to ensure the FDA that they are in compliance with current good manufacturing practices with controls that result in supplement production free of contamination and with accurate labeling.  In addition, the entire supplementation industry is required to report to the the FDA “all serious dietary supplement related adverse events.”

I find it reassuring that the manufacturers of my program are dedicated to such quality control!  Now to look further into these great supplements!
