According to the website “AttorneyAtLaw.com”
the FDA will destroy more than 23,000 bottles of illegal supplements for containing ingredients  not approved by the FDA.
U.S. Marshals seized
thousands of bottles of the dietary supplement products as part of an
ongoing FDA investigation. Supplements being destroyed include several "pro hormone" products distributed by LG Sciences LLC of Brighton, Mich. sold under the
brand names Methyl 1-D, Methyl 1-D XL and Formadrol Extreme XL. The products contained
1,4,6-androstatriene-3,17-dione, also known as “ATD” or
1,4,6-etioallocholan-dione.
The condemned Formadrol Extreme XL
contained ATD and 3,6,17-androstenetrione (also known as “6-OXO”). The
FDA requested and received court approval from the U.S. District Court
for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division to destroy the
forfeited supplements, which were valued at $1.3 million, according to the FDA.
