Date: 2023-11-13

Why did the makers of Prevagen settle a class action lawsuit in 2020 with the FTC over deceptive business practices and false advertising?

A couple of weeks ago, I released a video on a controversial Alzheimer’s drug that used the same scam: Controversy Around FDA’s Approval of Biogen Alzheimer’s Drug, Aducanumab (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/aducanumab-for-alzheimers).

With supplements these days, it’s the Wild West. See, for example, Supplement Regulation and Side Effects: Efforts to Suppress the Truth (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/supplement-regulation-and-side-effects-efforts-to-suppress-the-truth).
