US Marshals have seized 23,300 bottles of three separate dietary supplements through a court order. The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division entered a consent decree for the FDA to seize and destroy diet supplements manufactured by LG Sciences LLC, of Brighton, Michigan. The products were sold as "Methyl 1-D,” “Methyl 1-D XL,” and “Formadrol Extreme XL.” The seizure came after the FDA determined the body building supplements contained active ingredients that have not been tested for safety.
