FDA supplement regulation update

The herbal community has been avidly analyzing the most recent FDA regulations on herbal / supplement manufacturing. It is becoming more and more evident that: 1. this is a very burdensome set of rules, most especially for small manufacturers and herbal practitioners (I find myself a member of both groups...); and 2. the regulations themselves are so complex and far-reaching that enforcement will be almost impossible.
The Integrator Blog has posted a nice, brief discussion on these topics from the point of view of big industry experts (good people, generally). I think it's worth the two minute read.
