With Hydroxycut causing medical problems, issues may be coming up that go beyond this one product. Many injuries related to Hydroxycut were reported well before the recall occurred. This has caused some to question why the federal Food and Drug Administration did not pull the product earlier. Unfortunately, the answer to this is a lack of power.

Currently, there are no dietary supplements that require FDA approval. This means that many of the supplements on the market do not have to work the way that they claim to and do not have to undergo testing. This allows for factors to come together and form the current situation of Hydroxycut. Without authority to regulate dietary supplements, the FDA was unable to pull Hydroxycut from shelves. This has led to a death and numerous injuries.
