I don’t see how this is legal, but people on Tik Tok peddling miracle “medicine” are becoming more common every day. No FDA approval, no research. Just their marketing hype and false promises. This one, lady is showing some sort of probiotic and claiming it can help people suffering from severe acid reflux and gastrointestinal reflux disease or GERD, replacing medicine that has been tested for decades.
Congress needs to give the FDA the power to regulate supplements goddamn yesterday.
They had it and it was taken away in the 90s
So many laws would have to change, and the FDA would need about 1,000x the people and money. I’m all for it, but it’s an unsolvable problem. If it is something taken orally, including food, it can basically only ever be a reactive response to people dying.
Side note, for me, steamed kale is doing wonders.
Why are you using TikTok?
This and random plugs for that fucking bovine colostrum shit. 3 slides of well known advice then slide 4 BAM “I don’t know how I ever lived with [insert condition here] until I tried this colostrum!!!”
Obviously and issue but on par with actual product advertising on TV that has 0 approval and more often that not lists death as a side effect.
Not new. There will always be idiots, therefore, there will always be people selling snake oil.
that bottle could conceivably say “snake oil” on it
