The snake oil salesmen probably raked in 20 million on the product, knowing it would cost them when they eventually got busted. In the end, the snake oil salesman walkss away with 15 million, and lawyers walk away with 5. Stupid people walk away with zip.
For awhile after this came up, Cortislim changed their advertising to tout the "Cortislim Lifestyle", in which I think they implied Cortislim settled your nerves or some such Snake Oil type claim. But I haven't heard any mention of CS for months now.
No loss whatever.
I always thought this product was about as effective as the 'male enhancement' pills. I've always assumed these wonder drugs don't work and probably have dangerous side effects. I'm always right about the first part, and usually right about the second.
I never understood why talk show hosts I respect allowed these losers to advertise on their programs. The ad that drives me nuts now is that dorky "Three-Step Plan" to get rich quick while sitting around your house all day. It makes me change the station every time I hear it.
