Compare it to the text in this FDA flyer about Dietary Supplements.
• “FDA suggests that you consult with a health care professional before using any dietary supplement.”
• “Using supplements improperly can be harmful. Taking a combination of supplements, using these products together with medicine, or substituting them in place of prescribed medicines could lead to harmful, even life-threatening, results.”
• “Some ingredients and products can be harmful when consumed in high amounts, when taken for a long time, or when used in combination with certain other drugs, substances, or foods.”
