The FDA, which regulates dietary supplement products and their ingredients, recently warned manufacturers of dietary supplements containing DMAA (1, 3-dimethylamylamine) for not providing evidence regarding safety of their products. The Agency thus deemed the products as 'adulterated' (as DMAA is known to cause serious side-effects) and sent warning letters to 10 manufacturing firms for failing to demonstrate the safety of their products.
