    • They tell you, once you take a cup of this tea every morning for say one month you're going to lose weight. And there's also things like herbal cure-it-alls, you know, lots of mixtures of herbs which they claim, oh this can cure HIV, this can cure cancer, this can cure sickle cell anemia. And there are lots of messages from health experts, even state regulatory bodies, saying, oh these things do not work. We do not have any evidence that these things will offer you the value that this will promise, that it offers. And then there are also things like unregulated fertility and aphrodisiac products. You know, people and lots of messages online will tell you, oh once you take this or you apply this topically, you're going to get better in the other room. You know, you're going to be better, your performance is going to be great, it's going to offer you this and that.
