Keep our members and industry leaders informed on the most recent happenings around further strengthening DSHEA.

UNPA embarked on a strategy to rewrite the rules governing dietary supplements. This plan was developed in close cooperation with the office of Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah and was realized by the introduction of the Health Freedom Act of 1992, sponsored by Sen. Hatch and Rep. Bill Richardson of New Mexico. This bill ultimately became the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA). DSHEA was a shining example of consumers, trade associations and industry companies coming together to protect consumers’ rights of access to supplements.

Are you Amazon Ready? We held a fantastic 90-minute member-only webinar regarding Amazon ISO and what it means for dietary supplement quality. We explain ISO for the manufacturer/brand owner in the (new) world of Amazon policy/compliance.

ISO is not just for chemists and lab staff. It is a tool. Join us to hear it from the experts. We will cover the definition and the foundation of ISO, the scope of certification, misuse of “ISO” in marketing and ads and how to spot it, the importance of qualifying your laboratory, when it is acceptable to use “by input”, ISO related to the Amazon policy plus the important role of specialty labs for R&D, forensics and adulteration.
