Please read this hatchet piece. It is obviously funded by the pharmaceutical industry and probably backed by the goon squad at the FDA.
Take supplements at your own risk, since clearly they are dangerous. Remember to ask your medical physician for advice on supplements since they “know” drugs are the path to health and supplements will kill you.
