Regulatory framework

FDA regulates supplements federally under 21 CFR 101.9 and DSHEA. There is no Colorado-specific supplement registration filing beyond the federal route. Brand owners, as the label holder, address their own facility registration and labelling compliance. No state-level addenda like California’s Prop 65 apply in Colorado. All regulatory requirements are reviewed per project against the US federal framework.
