You can probably guess I am not in the USA but I would prefer to opt out of seeing them if possible. Perhaps someone knows the answer on how to do this.
The latest article promotes a cure for "leaky gut" and, like the others I have seen, is probably based on a lot of unproven misinformation, yet you have to sit through about 20 minutes of video. The inevitable "catch" is saved when you reach the end with the news that it will probably cost you quite a lot of cash to purchase if you wish to. Are the people administering this forum aware that it is being used to promote this sort of thing? Surely it would be better to use this medium to advertise items related to the hobby rather than all this medical stuff?
