11 Sep 2019 --- Only 2 percent of recalled supplements in 2019 were dietary supplements, according to US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) data. Among the recalls, only three were classified as “Class I,” – the most serious recall class. The news was published in a 2019 American Herbal Products Association (AHPA) report which noted that out of 803 recalls, 14 of them included dietary supplements. Dietary supplements to support health are increasingly popular and the news means that regulations to protect consumers from unwanted side effects appear to be working effectively.
