Supplements donât kill kidsâbut THIS just might | ||
Dear Reader, I recently came across a rather dubious and misleading headline. One that touted new research, showing that âcompared with vitamins, some dietary supplements increase the risk for severe medical events in youth.âWell⦠it was only a matter of time, wasnât it? Eventually, the nanny state in which we all live was going to kick up another fuss, overreacting and misdirecting their concerns over some imaginary threat or another. And the lethal specter of nutritional supplementation has always been one of their favorite straw men. (The fact that kids are involved is just the low-hanging cherry on top.) Still, I couldnât let another smear campaign slide without standing up for my industry. So like it or not, here we go again⦠Defying logic to make a point It shouldnât surprise anyone that the main culprits in question here were supplements sold for muscle building, weight loss, and energy. This latest study found that their use tripled the risk of severe medical problems (including hospitalization and death) among young people under the age of 25. Colon cleansing and sexual enhancement supplements followed closely, with research claiming they double the risk of severe medical problems. And honestly⦠does this actually come as a shock to anyone? These particular supplement categories are prime candidates for shady sales. They often target consumers who are looking for fast results, and contain questionable ingredients to deliver the goods. Thatâs bad enough by itself. But to repeat a point I made yesterday, weâre talking about kids and teens hereânot exactly paragons of good judgment when it comes to using substances of any kind. And yet, thatâs one factor this study didnât considerâwhether the population in question was using these supplements as recommended, following dosage instructions, or taking any other drugs or products that might interact with them. All of which are pretty important questions, if you ask me. Instead, the authors of this research are jumping straight to regulation, asking âhow can we continue to let the manufacturers of these products and the retailers who profit from them play Russian roulette with America's youth? It is well past time for policymakers and retailers to take meaningful action to protect children and consumers of all ages." As if drug manufacturersâwith their meds for attention deficit disorder (ADD), hyperactivity, and other behavioral âissuesââarenât guilty of this very transgression on a much larger scale. Not to mention other real threats to our youthâlike street drugs, alcohol, depression, and suicide? Even (and maybe especially) obesity, which is responsible for more death and disease than any other public health crisis at this moment. No, letâs just blame the supplement industry. Because clearly, weâre the real villains here, and donât you forget it. | ||

Hypocrisy is the name of the game These study authors really came out with guns blazing, stating that reputable physicians donât recommend these types of supplements anyway. To which I must ask⦠are any physicians recommending diet, energy, and sexual enhancement supplements to teens? Because Iâll tell you what. In my 30 years of practice, I have never recommended those types of supplements to a child. Or to anyone at all, really. In case you havenât noticed, most of my recommendations arenât readily available at convenience store counters! And you wonât see that changing anytime soon. These authors also raise concerns about supplement contaminationâwith prescription drugs, steroids, heavy metals, pesticides, and other hazardous substances that could lead to severe problems, ranging from liver damage to death. And on its face, this is a fair concern. But I could sound the exact same alarms over prescription drugs. Just look at all the recalls this year alone! Never mind the side effect profiles of these drugsâespecially those most commonly prescribed to kids. Current regulations bar Food and Drug Administration (FDA) screening of supplements for safety and effectiveness, which means that the agency uses an honor system when it comes to the products they allow to be sold. In other words, supplements are presumed innocent until proven guilty. That may seem too fast and loose to some people. But I would remind them that itâs exactly how the FDA handles Big Pharma, for all intents and purposes. These drug companies are largely self-regulated, with deep pockets to buy their way onto the market and out of trouble. So the fact that we consider their products to be safer than supplements based on the endorsement of a completely rigged approval process? To me, thatâs the outrageous part here. Iâm not saying that the supplement industry does everything right. Of course we should be able to trust that the supplements we takeâand that we recommend to our patients, friends, and familyâare safe. This is exactly why Iâm so discerning about my recommendations, and why I donât support any supplement without rigorous testing to back it up. Iâm merely asking: Wouldnât our children be better served by conventional medicine taking a good, hard look in the mirror?
