Sunday, July 28, 2002There is no formula in traditional Chinese medicine for slimming," Bill Guan, a traditional Chinese medicine specialist and scientist at the Institute of Chinese Medicine, told a news conference. He added there was neither scientific basis nor historical record for the claim. Leung Ping-chung, chairman of the institute at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, which does research on the use of traditional Chinese medicine, urged the Hong Kong government to tighten regulations on slimming products. "We need to have some standards, like what is safe? Content such as metals, fertilizers must be banned and the government must rule out absurd advertising," Leung said. That's right. You can't trust the companies to regulate themselves. posted by Sydney on 7/28/2002 07:42:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
