I don’t see how this is legal, but people on Tik Tok peddling miracle “medicine” are becoming more common every day. No FDA approval, no research. Just their marketing hype and false promises.

      Best we can do is ignore everything while random judges give themselves power to override the FDA whenever it causes inconvenience to corporations.

      — Congress
