FDA executes search warrant on Idaho supplement company
Associated Press
Food and Drug Administration investigators executed a search warrant Thursday on an Idaho-based supplement company that does an estimated $150 million in sales a year over the Internet, looking for evidence it deals in designer steroids and andro.
Investigators searched the headquarters of bodybuilding.com, a company based in Meridian, Idaho, according to a person familiar with the search. The person, who requested anonymity, was not authorized to discuss the investigation.
The affidavit filed in Idaho District Court listed more than 60 products sold by the company that contained five controlled substances or designer steroids, including andro and madol, a designer steroid the FDA identified in a similar probe that prompted the July raid of American Cellular Labs.
Liberty Media Corp., which owns the Atlanta Braves, Ticketmaster and DirecTV, bought a controlling stake in bodybuilding.com last year. The Wall Street Journal reported that Liberty Media paid more than $100 million.
Days after the raid at American Cellular Labs, the FDA issued a public health advisory, warning consumers to stop using products touted as containing steroids or steroid-like substances, many of which are labeled as dietary supplements.
This raid comes days before a hearing scheduled in the Senate to talk about the multibillion-dollar supplement industry. Critics say it is grossly underregulated. Defenders say the current FDA regulations are acceptable and that people selling steroids aren’t really part of the supplement industry.
