Heard of "Protandim"? Watch Primetime tonight

jane,
You forgot BACOPA MONNIERI and ASWAGHANDA...

Sounds delicious on duck...because both quack!

When you see the words "proprietary" and "millions of times more effective than other antioxidants"...Hold tight to your wallet.
Their web site even has a disclaimer on buying the company stock saying you should not rely on their claims...Puh- leeeze!

Yes, you must be careful about the claims of any product. I think the packaging on Lipitor says it does not prevent heart attacks, but yet doctors prescribe it for that very reason--at least my husband's doctor did. I am glad it didn't totally destroy his muscles while saving him from a heart attack. It has made me appreciate "quack" medicine.

Jane,

You absolutely did the right thing getting your husband off statins. They're not for everyone - if you start suffering from their side effects you may as well look for an alternate treatment, or be prepared to accept chronic, debilitating, potentially fatal side effects in exchange for a small decrease in your statistical chance of having a heart attack ( most statin studies indicate a 1-2% absolute reduction in risk).

Let us know how you do on the Protandim.... (And if you only make it to 102, dinner's on me!!! )

Sounds very, very similar to the LIPITOR web site. It has a disclaimer that Lipitor "has not been shown to prevent heart disease or heart attacks". PUH-LEEEEEEEEZE!!!!

BACOPA MONNIERI and ASWAGHANDA

I was completing janeslk's list of ingredients. And those two are in the product.

What does Lipitor have to do with "Protandim?" Anything at all?

Each page seems to be devoted to a single topic and most people manage to stick to it.
Do you have anything interesting to add to the Protandim discussion?

As to the Lipitor web site...they claim very clearly that the FDA has found that Lipitor DOES prevent heart attack and they repeat the claim and list the studies. The site isn't hard to find and those who choose to quote it might find some benefit from actually READING IT! Hint it's one word long and begins with "L."
Why make up quotes? Find out what's actually THERE!
