Beware Of Media Promotion Of Prevagen

"From the memory supplement’s launch in 2007 through 2016, agency officials repeatedly raised concerns as the number of consumer complaints grew."

"Though drugs and dietary supplements are both regulated by the FDA under the Federal Food Drug & Cosmetic Act, they’re held to vastly different standards. The FDA requires drug manufacturers to prove through rigorous testing that their products are safe and effective before they are approved to enter the market. The agency lacks the same authority when it comes to supplements. Instead, the companies are responsible for ensuring their products are safe and lawful, and in many cases, they can introduce new dietary supplements to the market without even notifying the agency. As a result, supplements are generally presumed safe until proven otherwise."

Prevagen is just a canary in the coal mine of supplements
