AB The  DSHEA  legislation  of  1994  made  it  possible  for  manufacturers  to  sell  dietary  supplements  directly  to  the  public  without  the  level  of  FDA  approval  or  oversight  that  is  required  of  pharmaceuticals.  Reports  of  adulteration  and  contamination  have  occurred,  but  the  magnitude  of  this  problem  remains  unknown.  However,  information  is  available  on  many  products  that  have  been  independently  tested  for  content  and  purity.  Table  e4–3  provides  an  overview  of  selected  dietary  supplements  commonly  used  in  the  United  States  today.
