DSHEA at 25:
In conversation with Scott Bass and Loren Israelsen In this milestone 25th anniversary year, UNPA reflects back on and celebrates the passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). Loren Israelsen and Scott Bass, two of the principal architects of DSHEA, discuss the many political challenges they faced and the various set-backs the bill encountered. Each looks to the future to visualize where the industry is going and how best to set the legislative framework to allow the industry and ultimately the consumers to succeed. |
UNPA member nutraingredients-usa.com has posted a two-part video of Stephen Daniell’s excellent interview with Loren Israelsen and Scott Bass discussing DSHEA. You can view both segments here::
