Bogus product claims and your health.

So many products today tout studies showing that their products can do this or that for your health, but can they really? Always be wary of a product and company that does not do INDEPENDENT lab testing on their FINISHED product and then tells you that it will do what the studied ingredient in their product does. While it is fine to report that an ingredient in a product has been shown to have health benefits be itself, it is unethical and wrong for a company to say that their product will do the same thing as the “ingredient” in the product without independent lab testing the finished product WITH the ingredient to show that it really has an effect. This is a BIG problem in our society. Marketing has stretched the truth so far on product claims that it is hard to see the truth when we see it.
Always ask for independent lab results and NEVER assume that just because a product has a healthy ingredient in it that the product will do what the ingredient does unless it has been tested and “shown” to do what is claimed.
