“AHPA appreciates that dietary supplement workers are now specifically identified as 'essential critical infrastructure’ in this latest guidance from the Department of Homeland Security,” Michael McGuffin, president of the American Herbal Products Association (AHPA), is quoted as saying in a press release. “However … companies and workers should check state and local recommendations and directives in making status determinations for operations that qualify as essential critical infrastructure.”

Results of a new study published in the journal Biomed Central BMC showed turmeric extract was as effective as paracetamol in reducing pain and other symptoms of knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study demonstrated the bioavailable compound was more effective in reducing inflammation.

“Most of our member companies wanted to stay open, and were staying open under the assumption that they were a part of either the food sector or the health care sector,” said Steve Mister, president and CEO of the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), in an interview. “What this does is it makes it clear. So if someone from state law enforcement should show up and ask, 'Why are you open?’ they can directly point to the CISA guidance.”
Mister added, “When the first round of this memo came out, we were pretty confident that we would be included by inference … but it didn’t expressly say dietary supplements. You kind of had to read between the lines to read us into it.”
