Anyone with experience selling supplements?

[Bushi23]

I was wondering if anyone had knowledge regarding selling a dietary supplement, a botanical extract.

Currently the only suppliers I can find are in China. How can I verify these powders are what they say they are?

Also, what laws with the FDA do I need to read about ?

I know there are a few people on the forum doing this right now. Try a search for supplements, there should be some info...

Im selling supplements... i dont know what your questions are asking though.. they say ask a good question if you want a good answer. But I will try and help

I would say google "FDA Supplements" maybe that will answer whatever you are looking to address

How can you verify a product is what it says it is? The only way for you to verify is to test whatever this is. If you are that worried about it already I would say don't order from that company or dont order from China

I think I would stay away from China when it comes to sourcing ingredients - especially if this is your first move into the business. There are plenty of contract manufacturers here in the US that are reputable. Check out free industry magazines like Nutritional Outlook Nutritional Outlook | The manufacturer or Nutraceuticals World Nutraceuticals World - Serving the Dietary Supplement, Functional Food and Nutritional Beverage Industries - Nutraceuticals World
