(CBS) - Vitamin D supplements may be a lot more, or a lot less potent than the label says. That's according to researchers in Oregon who tested 55 bottles of dietary supplements. They found the amount of vitamin D in the tested pills ranged from nine percent to 146 percent of the amount on the label. The supplement industry is not strictly regulated, and the FDA is considering new safety guidelines.
