That's a personal favorite of mine (ask my wife). It's amazing that they spend 15 seconds telling you how it can help you, then 40 describing *terrible* side effects, then in the final seconds tell you to ask your doctor about the product.
-And they always say: "Side effects *may* include..." There's always the possibility that you could experience things worse than:
hair loss,
diahrea,
increased blood pressure,
sleeplessness,
drowziness,
(the vague:) sexual side effects,
headaches,
cramping,
and about ten others.
How many people actually ask their doctor after hearing the list?!
