You're gonna want those TV brain pills...
« on: September 26, 2020, 10:15:47 AM »
...or, maybe not.  My observation of the TV commercials for "Prevagen - the leading memory support and brain health supplement in America", and the like, is they are interestingly featuring testimonials from a segemet of society that I would guess many middle-class would think elite and already smart. "These statements are not evaluated by the FDA" in small type, fails to mention likely remuneration in the form of 30-second stardom or cash but, they all appear pretty pleased with themselves.

But... maybe they should dig a little deeper. Some of these 'brain supplements' contain an unapproved Russian remedy at 4X the rate Putin serves it to his people.

The kicker is (forgetting the chaos of the last few years) The US allows companies to sell us all sorts of C'hit nobody would take - if they knew (or cared) what they were taking.
