Course Handbook for HUN 5246These pages provide an overview of the course, "Current Issues in Dietary Supplements." Dietary supplement use has been growing since the passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) in 1994, making ginkgo biloba, echinacea, and St. John's wort household words. Do these supplements work? Are they safe? In this course we will explore the science behind dietary supplement claims and examine the regulations that impact the dietary supplement industry.The course is offered entirely "online" via the Internet. Through the course activities and readings, students will develop skills in critiquing research articles, and will develop a consumer-friendly web page on a dietary supplement of their choice. Use the menu options at the top of this page for details. For more information,
