Is the supplement industry “poorly-regulated” as alleged by the AG? Why hasn’t the AG released the actual reports upon which his investigation is predicated? How can consumers be assured of quality and potency when purchasing natural products? What safeguards are in place to avert toxicity?

Is this representative of the unreliability of the supplement industry as a whole? She urges consumers to join the #ReleaseTheReport Twitter campaign. Click HERE for part 2.
