The Court heard that in June 2018, officers from Food Standards Scotland, acting On Intelligence , raided George's then home in Falkirk.
Mr Moncrieff said: " The floor, walls and contents of The Garden shed were all heavily contaminated and stained with a yellow powder. "
They found equipment including disposable gloves, a capsule filling machine capable of turning out 100 pills at a time, 10,000 empty capsule shells, and almost £1,500 in cash.
Investigations showed George had been posting supplies to both local customers and others in Asia, Australia and the USA.

He told police he was aware that DNP was not safe for human consumption, and he was aware of the dangers of taking it, including that the lethal dose is unknown.
