I woke up early this morning in a hotel in buttfuck Kansas on my way west and turned on the tv. Who do I see? Frank fucking Thomas shilling some pills that sound EXACTLY like steroids.
How ironic that with two people that had such similar careers in Bagwell and Thomas that one was in some ways “shamed” in to relative obscurity and the other gets to leer at women while popping a pill ( pahhlease don’t make this a race thing, I won’t have it.) during commercials. Yes, Frank is likely more camera friendly.
So my question is...
Should I order some Nugenix? Asking for a friend.

I never disliked Frank Thomas until he started making those commercials. Now he can go fuck himself. One could listen to creepy Frank, "she'll like it too.". Or just eat better, get more rest, exercise more, and lose the excess fat. If "your friend" thinks he may have a testosterone level issue that is causing real problems, he should see a medical professional about it and not follow advise on a television commercial or from an internet forum (other than this one--where there is nothing but expert advise that has been thoroughly tested and vetted over a long period of time).

The fact that we allow pharmaceutical advertising is a big part of what’s fucked up about our health care system.

We have a winner.

For the record.. there is no “friend” and I have zero intention of buying that shit. Ever. Just another lousy attempt at humor.
I always liked FT but wtf is that...?!

I’d venture to say the supplement industry might be the only thing more sketchy than the pharmaceutical industry.

My question is: who is buying this stuff in this modern age where we have verified working medications (Viagra, Levitra etc)?

Someone who wants over-the-counter vs. prescription would be my guess.

I don't know who is buying these boner placebos, but they advertise non-stop on Comedy Central and FX, all day, been doing it for a couple of years.

I want a life where I can watch Comedy Central and FX all day and be tempted by boner placebos.

Well ... that and read threads with titles like “Nugenix”.

Be careful what you wish for.

I agree. I hate every one of those fucking commercials for a lot of reasons, one of which is the co-opting of classic music to advertise their here today, a thousand personal injury lawsuits tomorrow products. In particular, I would like to dismember whichever ad guy thought it would be a great idea to use "Smokestack Lightning" to sell male ED products.
But, damn me, I cannot help but kind of like the Tujeyo guy, not sure why.

Appreciate the humor, but have some questions:
Is a product that is created naturally "better" or worse than an chemical that has been created to mimic it?
Why does the FDA (https://www.fda.gov/food/buy-store-serve-safe-food/what-you-need-know-about-dietary-supplements) not have the authority to review supplements b/f they are marketed?
Do consumers really need to be guinea pigs for the supplement industry?

>> Is a product that is created naturally "better" or worse than an chemical that has been created to mimic it?
I think the general idea is to prefer something that has been eaten by humans with no reported problems. But a molecule's a molecule. Natural vitamin C's no different from lab-created vitamin C.
>>Why does the DFA not have the authority to review supplements b/f they are marketed?
I'm not a lawyer, but I think if the supplements only include ingredients "Generally Recognized as Safe" ( https://www.fda.gov/food/food-ingredients-packaging/generally-recognized-safe-gras ), they don't have to be reviewed.
>> Do consumers really need to be guinea pigs for the supplement industry?
We have to find a balance between ensuring consumer safety and creating unreasonable barriers to entry for food and supplement producers.
If you're that concerned, you can always go with the FDA-approved versions of niacin and Vitamin D. I hope you don't mind paying 42 times as much ( https://gizmodo.com/a-pharma-company-raised-the-price-of-a-daily-vitamin-by-1821217649 ). One of Big Pharma's many nasty tricks is taking cheap, generic vitamins and making a very slight change, then patenting it.
