In my opinion, take what you see on TV with a pinch of salt..specially if it's American TV. Too much business marketing, and too much "YOU GOT TO HAVE HAVE THIS!" -brainwashing -propaganda. If you keep looking at it, you would prolly develope hypochondria and loose your medical that way.
My advice is that you steer clear of as many pills and threatments as you possibly can, and rather
think for yourself! You should
choose to take the longer and more healty way, if you want to preserve your health. That's useually all what it takes...a bit of willpower. And its most likely gonna give you more benifits than any pills can offer.
Remember: Most pills deals with the symptoms, not the problem.
