While DHEA may indeed be effective, if 80% of the natural supplements that were tested did not contain what the label said, one might conclude that there is an 80% chance that a bottle labeled "DHEA" really doesn't contain DHEA.

80% of /store brand herbal/ supplements. This is an important distinction. Brand names were fine.
Yes, after closer reading of the news articles it does seem that they only mentioned "store brands". However, I couldn't find anything where it said brand names were "OK".

My Google foo is failing me, I can't seem to find an actual report, just news articles. Help a fella out with a link?
