18. IOW, you don't know how to do a legitimate risk-benefit analysis.

That's exactly what you're posts have shown, so you don't have to spell it out. WebMD and Mayo have been called out for the choice to go with anecdote over science, and popularity over things that actually offer benefits. Pushing logical fallacy after logical fallacy is not going to help. Of course, if you're defending one of the biggest scams in history, then nothing is going to help until you choose to wake up.

Why is the industry afraid of consumers having information that would actually help the consumer? Oh, that's right.

Once again, the dietary supplement industry is fighting efforts to give consumers more information about the safety and effectiveness of dietary supplements.
