Well..I saw the 'ad' (it was a sponsired ad by for-profit people..but like a drug ad too.) You can easily get all of this stuff, these "pig" vitamins, seperately for such a cheaper price. A few other things...-the government banned that particular company because they where making claims that where not *scientifically* proven..hence protecting consumers and us from fraud and con artists..
-the research has been shown to be flawed...and their is so little of it
-most of the pressure is comming from right-wing Albertan's who want to dismantle our medicare system by saying all of our 'science' of drugs is 'wrong'. Of course, it is no coincidence that the ad appeared in Canada's ultra-right wing paper 'The National Post'.
For more on this and many other scams..goto http://www.quackwatch.org/
Larry likely said the same and more...you deserve *much* better than what these scammers have to offer.
Best wishes,
Jay
