Only if the manufacturer or distributor makes claims about curing or treating a disease. If such specific claims are not made, FDA approval is not needed.

No they dont. If you claim on the label that it treats or cures a certain disease, you need to put a disclaimer on the label. "these satements have not been evaluated by the FDA" or something of the sort. Other than that , everything natural can be put on the market freely.
