Last week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) demanded kratom herbal supplement manufacturers stop making outlandish health claims about their products or face being shut down. Shortly thereafter, the watchdog agency turned its sites on companies that make sunscreen pills, declaring the products are completely fake.
According to an NBC News report, numerous health supplement companies are currently selling products that claim a pill can protect your skin from the damaging rays of the sun. The marketing of these products distinctly claim taking a daily pill is a “simple and natural way” to reinforce the skin’s ability to protect against ultraviolet radiation.
The FDA doesn’t believe it. In response, the agency sent warning letters to many of these companies demanding they stop making health claims that are still unproven.
In a recent statement about sunscreen pills, the FDA chief, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, did not hold back.
