Supplements are a scam. Just eat lean meat, eggs and dairy.

How the hell did this brand get approved by the FDA?
After watching the video, protein supplements don’t need to be tested and approved by the FDA. It’s the company’s responsibility to label the correct ingredients. This brand was not even on store shelves. It was the private brand a bodybuilder sold mail order. It grew in popularity from word of mouth. “It was so yummy.”
Something like that.
if he isn't charged for criminal fraud outright, the company will be tanked. and when he rebrands, he'll generally be required to list any sellers/distributors as additional insured, and every major insurer asks about whether he's selling food products (or supplements), and if yes, whether he's been disbarred. if he lies, it's a felony.
at best, he's looking at selling on some shit tier ecom site and promoting via social, or trying to evade FB marketplace filters. either way, he's toast, will just take time.
[The FDA doesn't require testing](https://globalregulatorypartners.com/fdas-updates-on-dietary-supplement-regulation-in-2025/) of supplements pre-market, so it's basically on the consumer to test and report back. It's what we call "testing in prod (production environment)" in programming, and it's why it's generally frowned upon (because you may destroy valuable things through unforeseen bugs).
