The FDA does not have the authority to approve dietary supplements for safety and effectiveness before they are marketed. Therefore, the percentage of dietary supplements that have been adequately tested by the FDA is extremely low, essentially 0%. The FDA only monitors these products in the market and takes action if any product is found to be unsafe or misbranded.
