A Dose of Sunshine: What the Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2026 Really Means

In our first episode of 2026, Supplement Source kicks off the year with major policy news for the dietary supplement industry.

CRN President and CEO Steve Mister joins host Jeff Ventura to break down Senator Dick Durbin’s reintroduction of the Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2026—what it does, what it doesn’t do, and why this moment matters now.

The conversation cuts through common misconceptions about FDA “pre-market approval,” explains how a public-facing product registry would work, and explores how greater transparency can strengthen consumer trust, support responsible companies, and help clean up online marketplaces—without burdening innovation or small businesses.

If you’ve seen the headlines and heard the concerns, this episode delivers the clarity, context, and straight talk the supplement industry needs right now.
