In the Weight Loss Supplement World, “Doctor Recommended” Means Sweet FA!
In my publication “Dirty, Rotten Tricks! Supplement Company Lies That Cost You Money!“, I talk about the “doctor recommended” scam. Essentially, the word of a medical doctor holds a lot of sway with the general public, so supplement manufacturers and retailers will often do whatever they can to be able to claim that their product is “doctor recommended.” What they do to make this appear to be the...
An Addendum to Paul’s Metabosyn Review…

For example, according to a Kellogg press release (cited in the FTC complaint): Keeping ‘Em Full and Focused Kellogg recently commissioned research to measure the effect on kids of eating a...
Vibrational HCG… Really?!
Over the weekend, I surfed over to Science-Based Medicine, and scanned this post by pharmacist Scott Gavura about HCG and weight loss. It’s a well-written article, although if you’ve seen what Paul and I have had to say on the topic, in general, you won’t see much that’s new. There was one thing in his article, however, that took me by surprise. It was inserted into a paragraph about the FDA crackdown on...
