- tomComb 2y agoI'm a fan of CR and of independent testing. I'm sorry that the attempts to bring independent testing to the supplements industry haven't done better. But they too fall victim to the need to exaggerate every story to get better headlines. In this case, they came up with ridiculously stringent standards allowing them to suggest danger where there isn't. On the other hand, it is good that the outliers get scolded and hopefully they improve their processes as a result.
