Description

Dr Nceba Gqaleni, Deputy Dean of University of KwaZulu-Natal’s Medical School explains that vitamins do not need to be subjected to the same scientifically rigorous tests as drugs, which is why it is easy for them to be sold without any proof of their effectiveness. They are viewed as supplements while drugs are made to cure illnesses. Nathan Geffen, TAC activist, talks about Matthias Rath’s false advertising and about how he conducts illegal clinical trials
