BTW since India makes a great many of medications and supplements for the USA and the world, and those factories are never inspected or products tested, do you think this "cheating" / "hacking" attitude doesn't spill over into each and every industry?

Webpage is one thing, how about things you consume?

What is the basis of your statement that the factories are never inspected or the products are tested?

I interned at a pharmaceutical company's factory in India for the summer that used to regularly export medications to it's subsidiaries in the western world including United States. The standards are super high, we literally threw away millions of medications due to small uncertainty in a Quality control check.

Besides the local regulations and inspections, a team from FDA regularly visited the factory to audit it for like 10-15 days. Just for one factory. I distinctly remember this as we had a more americanized menu for lunch when the team visited LMAO.

So yeah, when you don't know or are not sure, please don't make statements like "factories are never inspected". It makes it seem like you know something, which you clearly don't.

There is clear documentation that the FDA rarely/never inspects overseas factories.

Sometimes once when they are opened and never again. There's just no funding because that's how our political forces fight, they defund things.
