Executive Summary
DIETARY SUPPLEMENT HEALTH CLAIMS STATUS QUO UNDER NLEA would be maintained for more than two years or until a special commission devises a process for reviewing claims under the version of S 784 that cleared the Senate Aug. 13. According to a summary of the bill from sponsor Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), "dietary supplements will be subject to the preapproval process and standard of the Nutrition Labeling & Education Act for the two-year period that a new, independent Commission on Dietary Supplement Labeling determines the most appropriate process" of evaluating health claims.
