Pinpointed the problem as inadequate regulation of the supplement industry.

Thanks for the read. I did think about getting something to add a little pep to lose the stomach but going to stick with the right way. No shortcuts.

I bet this story actually increases sales.

The DNP obviously works. People will just think they are safe with recommended doses.

The lack of meaningful regulation argument has been extensively used by the medical profession/medical establishment to mislead the public into thinking that dietary supplements pose a great threat to their health.

If you look past their hype you will recognize that a "highly regulated" market such as the medical industry cause multiple times more damage to public health than the "lightly regulated" supplements, and that many of the claims of benefit of medical products are little more than fabricated "scientific" lies (read: Tougher Supplement Regulation: A Necessity Or Politics?). Or, the way the orthodox medical establishment is set up, the biggest recipe for trouble is already in place.

The calls for more federal regulation of supplements and anti-supplement rants are usually little more than public deception.

Steve Novella paints himself as some objective source of information on both alternative and orthodox medicine when in fact he's a hack and bulldog for big medicine.

You can see this evident plain fact at play when he falsely claims " The core regulations of pharmaceuticals, however, work. Drug companies must provide high quality evidence of safety and efficacy for their products and can only make claims that are specifically approved by the FDA. Quality control is also high."

So you made a new account on a Lakers forum just to post this.

Ironic that you would post that in a thread created because a woman died from taking a supplement. I guess in your mind dying doesn't qualify as a great threat to health. At least that's when the weight loss really begins.

The rest of what you wrote is completely, demonstrably false as well. Shows what happens when you let blind ideology take over your thinking.

Account killed because we don't allow sock puppet accounts here. And no, you didn't hide it as well as you think.

I'm not even sure someone is paying for such ridiculous posts. Some people are just stubborn idiots.

Yep. Those kinds of tactics and that kind of ideological bent go hand-in-hand.
