New York's attorney general had a bunch of herbal supplements tested. 75% of the products tested showed no DNA for the herbs listed on the label, or were contaminated with beans, rice, pine and/or wheat, which were not listed on the labels.
Those accused are: GNC (Herbal PlussS), Wal-Mart (Spring Valley), Walgreens (Finest Nutrition) and Target (Up & Up). GNC and the supplement promoting Council for Responsible Nutrition criticized the testing method.
