Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts) Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 3,552 | I have nothing but contempt for companies that make their living promoting worthless, untested (and sometimes dangerous) products on vulnerable persons and giving them false hope. I hope that there is a special place in hell for the persons and executives who make these kinds of decisions and criminal behaviour. It is ILLEGAL to promote a drug or substance "intended to alter the structure of the body" without FDA approval. Period. Report these people to the FDA, send copies of their claims. GNC for instance has had numerous injunctions and other regulatory actions taken against it. Do not patronize these snake oil salesmen.
I have a real nice Alpine Industries Ozone generator/air purifier (from the first run when the ozone levels could actually be toxic before they ran into problems with the FDA) I'll make you a good deal - I paid almost a grand for that thing -from a gal in my bible study group who was into the multilevel marketing thing, also selling "Natures Sunshine". The latest scam that someone threw at me for "chemoprevention" was Noni juice, also well known to Quackwatch. I pointed this out to her and she just patently ignored me like she was from some kind of cult. The people actually selling this stuff are brainwashed drones. It is a classic example of compartmentalized and institutional evil as well described in M Scott Pecks book "The People Of The Lie".
