That's so funny...I hope the placebos worked better because the actual pills were higher in sugar, HAHA.

Posted: 1/4/07 at 5:55pmthings are not always what they seem. Some of the companies in question are being held accountable for claims made in like 2000/2001. They should still be held accountable but it doesn't mean they are still making the claims on current products, and may have done what was needed to be done to correct it a while ago. Whenever deciding to take something like nutritional supplements, do a lot of research and ALWAYS talk to your doctor first! Just my thoughts.
