I offer this as an example of something I keep noticing: negative reports made on inexpensive possible disease treatments that appear to be deceptive.

Someone comes up with a potential cure or treatment - that looks inexpensive and/or simple. Soon after, seemingly official statements are made that deny its efficacy EVEN THOUGH it has not been demonstrated to be ineffective (" but it is not a cancer cure")
Again, there is a difference between "there is no evidence" (meaning, at present, we don't know one way or the other) and saying "it doesn't work" ( meaning it has been actually been proven ineffective).
In addition, I wonder when an inexpensive drug seems to be effective and is then followed by "but there is no evidence" but is then tested in combination with a more profitable drug in a clinical trial. Perhaps this is a (somewhat) reasonable compromise to establish a drug combination while preserving an established profit source.
My main interest is in anti-aging but incidents such as above make me wonder as to "the whole truth and nothing but the truth" about various supplements and regimens that are otherwise affected by negative statements expressed with confidence.
