Abstract:
Three hearings on the diet industry took place during 1990 in the House of Representatives' Small Business Subcommittee on Regulation, Business Opportunities and Energy. Testimony from service organizations and consumers resulted in specific recommendations being made regarding consumer-protection standards. In addition, options for developing stricter regulatory standards were discussed.
