I agree with your take on this advertising tactic.
It would seem that the FTC should step in. I’m rather surprised the FDA hasn’t gotten involved.
I know people don’t like the FDA, and there are times when I have problems with it too.
None the less, these products are a bad idea.
The body gets tired for a reason. It needs rest. If you start over-riding that need, in time problems will result.
And that. my FRiend, is exactly what they want you to think - even though, as has been pointed out on this thread, the number of problems is statistically insignificant.
You ever look at the dangers of prescription meds? Do so. Really, I mean it - spend some time researching the massive coverup going on of deaths and injuries at huge statistical values of patients on prescription meds. If you do, you'll never be fooled by pap like this story again.
Look, everyone needs to understand that they aren't just going after herbs and spices (and why the HELL should they be able to do that?) - they're also trying to classify food itself as a drug - fruits, vegetables, meats. They're arresting milk producers with ZERO complaints with SWAT teams and smashing their equipment and siezing their computers and literally dragging these people off like they're murderers. And that's not all - they want to openly, flat-out own your body and everything you do with it. And if you still snort, then consider your children's future under such a regime. Can't happen here? LOL, look at the White House - is IS happening here.
