This book documents the long, still ongoing battle between the US Food and Drug Administration and the dietary supplement industry. It presents the complex, often subtle, and sometimes overlooked series of events that had a major impact on how dietary supplements are manufactured, marketed, sold, and used today. While the first few chapters focus on some background topics, the remaining chapters walk the reader through timeline of events, legislative actions, FDA proposed and final rules, and judicial decisions that led to our current dietary supplement regulatory framework. Interwoven in narrative are examples of the roles of science, social and public policy, politics, and popular media.

Over my 36 years as a faculty member at UVM, he has taught many courses, including “Fundamentals of Food Science” class (sophomore/junior level), a junior/senior level “Advanced Nutrition” class, as well as a graduate level “Research Methods” course. In addition, since the early 1990’s he has been teaching a “Food Regulation” course.

Other teaching-related projects were funded through competitive UVM funding sources. He continues to experiment with teaching technologies and strategies.
