I think most things are a scam, especially if they're heavily promoted and advertised (like dietary supplements). If you eat like an adult and don't subsist solely on fast food and pizza, you should get all the nutrients you need. And yet dietary supplements are a multi-billion $$$ industry.
I think about all those small business owners who, back when I worked at Ch10, insisted that "advertising doesn't work". Most, if not all, of them are gone now but dietary supplements are experiencing a growth market.
