The FDA has been uncovering a number of harmful products marketed as dietary supplements for weight loss, body building and sexual enhancement. These products actually contain undeclared, active ingredients present in FDA-approved drugs or variations thereof. The FDA has caused the recall of nearly 200 inappropriately-formulated products since 2007. The recalled products were linked to reports of stroke, kidney failure, liver injury and death.
