Labeling regulations

July 10, 2006

I just read a couple of posts- and already have a question.... I'm aware

of the FDA regulation of listing ingredients, and have for many years

listed every single ingredient, as well as in the order of amounts used.

I have also noticed, that a lot of companies, even herbalists

prescribing compounds for internal use, don't reveal the ingredients.

For the most part I strongly feel that the consumer should know what's

in the product, in case they are aware of possible allergies.

However, when you come up with a unique product, that is not anywhere on

the market, how can you protect your fomulations from being duplicated,

except by omission of information?

I am all for sharing, but it is a very competetive field, with a lot of

big players.

I really would love to hear how others handle this.

Thanks, ne
