HUGE vitamin and supplement scandal in Australia

Posted by bluedog on April 28, 2003, at 11:07:07

Note to ALL Australians and to countries to which Australian vitamin supplements and supplement ingredients are sold or supplied. Could include the US, UK and Canada etc.
Do NOT take your vitamins and supplements after the largest contract vitamin and supplement supplier in Australia has been found to be falsifying test results and substituting ingredients. Pan Pharmaceutical supplies up to 70% of the Australian alternative medicine/vitamin/supplement and herbal remedy market.
So far 219 products have been recalled but the recall may extend to 1000's of products sold in health stores and pharmacies in Australia.
see the following links:-

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (the government regulatory body) will run adds in all major Australian newspaper from tomorrow and over the coming weeks advising of products effected.
Be careful
