| Event Type |

| Event Description |
: |
The New York attorney general’s investigations of botanical dietary supplements have triggered a national debate over quality, labeling and analytical testing procedures, as well as a lot of negative media. Scores of class-action lawsuits have been filed. Settlements by GNC and Nature’s Way with the New York AG add a new dimension of testing requirements for ingredient vendors.
This two-day analytical summit will explain and examine critical issues, with the objective of arming attendees with the knowledge and insights needed to understand, adapt and succeed in a very fast-changing and unsettling dietary supplement marketplace. Ample time will be provided for Q&A and general discussion.
Nearly 20 world-class experts will present, debate, and discuss the current state of affairs concerning:
The New York AG investigations, GNC and Nature’s Way settlements and the status of plaintiff class-action litigation against retailers and companies
Other state attorneys general activities involving dietary supplements, quality testing and consumer protection
The strengths and limits of DNA barcoding. How can it be integrated with established dietary supplement testing procedures?
How are national retailers and brand leaders being forced to become a new gatekeeper of quality and regulatory compliance?
How far will DNA barcoding go? What’s next: probiotics, protein, algae, animal byproducts or other categories of products? |
