Apple Cider Vinegar? Or Just Acid?

Advertisements in magazines and on the Internet offer what seems like a
simple remedy for a range of health problems - apple cider vinegar
tablets. But University of Arkansas researchers have found that some of
these tablets may not contain apple cider vinegar at all and could be
hazardous to the taker's health.

This comes as no surprise, since makers of herbal products or
"supplements" not only don't have to prove their products are safe,
they don't have to prove they are effective, and the products don't
even have to really contain any of what the label says is supposed to
be present.

I could literally mow my lawn, collect the clippings, seal them in
little bottles and sell it as St. John's Wort, and I would have done
absolutely nothing illegal.

Thus has been the state of affairs in the US since 1994.

MD Ignorant of almost all medications not presented by salespersons.
MD Ignorant (totally) of labeling laws and controls.

Quit maligning the general MD profession with your utter stupidity and
misinformation.
You and your kind are the reason more and MORE people are avoiding MDs.
