The Organic Concumers Association is participating in a campaign to educate consumers and put pressure on manufacturers of synthetic supplements. They aim to challenge the natural products industry to stop lacing nutritional supplements with innefective and hazardous synthetic chemicals and to instead use genuinely organic, naturally occuring ingredients.

To coincide with the Natural Products Expo West convention, the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) has launched a new public health and truth-in-labeling campaign called Nutri-Con: The Truth About Vitamins & Supplements. Through public education, marketplace pressure, and litigation, OCA's Nutri-Con campaign will expose the hazards and limited effectiveness of synthetic vitamins and supplements, and strive to create mass consumer awareness and marketplace demand for truly organic, "naturally occurring" vitamins, botanicals, and supplements.
