"When it comes to regulating and selling dietary supplements, should
consumer interests be higher priority than those of manufacturers? While
regulations are seemingly created to protect consumers, governments
around the world have consistently given manufacturers the upper hand,
prioritizing a company’s desire to sell a product over a consumer’s
right to a marketplace with safe, effective products. Nowhere is this
more the case than in Canada and the United States, where similar
regulatory approaches have led to an industry boom and massive sales,
but also a confusing marketplace for consumers and no persuasive
evidence that all those supplements have any meaningful effects on our
health."
Fixing the supplement market for consumers
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
