| | The act establishes a separate class from food and drugs for nutrients and herbal products named "Dietary Supplements." Unlike prior FDA regulations, DSHEA allows for label and advertising claims of nutritional support for dietary supplements when backed by adequate scientific substantiation. | | | European drug regulations are slightly more hospitable to natural remedies, relying upon WHOs "Guidelines for the Assessment of Herbal Medicines," which state that a substances historical use is a valid way to document safety and efficacy in the absence of scientific evidence to the contrary. | | | Nearly 25% of all prescription drugs dispensed in the U.S. contain at least one active ingredient derived from plant material. |
